evalagoal Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 Ok Everyone....... We all saw the magic that the 2 Brazilians showed today, but who do you want on the roster for next season? Rivaldo (The Legend) Giovanni (The Magician) We know that both of them are in a so-so state for next year..... I would like to know your thoughts..

Panathinaikos_Trifilli Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 wont they have a combined age of 80 or something next year, forget who you want and start thinking about sacking the grandads Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loup Posted April 24, 2005 Share Posted April 24, 2005 The reason Olymiakos did so well in Europe this year was because of Rivaldo - he was added - they did better - telos If you can keep him do so- however I think he has stayed just about as long as he wanted to - off to make some bigger dough somewhere else Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NYC_Olympiakos Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Ok Everyone....... We all saw the magic that the 2 Brazilians showed today, but who do you want on the roster for next season? Rivaldo (The Legend) Giovanni (The Magician) We know that both of them are in a so-so state for next year.....

At this moment and where the team is I say let him go and look into the future for either another Gio or a young prodigy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batigol Posted April 25, 2005 Share Posted April 25, 2005 Neither. Giovanni shouldn't even be considered. He's too old and lacks the pace for Olympiakos to seriously use him in a strikers role for European play. Goodbye Giovanni...thanks for the memories!! Rivaldo is also up there in age but has shown some flashes of brilliance. I would be surprised if he did stay for another year considering the run ins he's had with Bajevic over the course of the year. But things have died down so maybe they've solved their differences. But if it were my money, I wouldn't keep him. I'd sooner try and get someone of comparable talent who is much younger. Drop boatloads of cash...break the bank...whatever. Just stop getting older with players who "used" to be something great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CH-Thrylos Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 giovanni is out for 99%. i just read today that there are rumours he has agreed with santos about the money he will get if he goes there. rivaldo stated recently he wants to stay till the end of his contract. so most probably he will still play for us next year. and who knows. maybe bajevic is gone at the end of the season. first of all he is very unhappy not getting the support of the board he wants and is also disappointed with the whole situation with the fans and players. second i think kokkalis is also not very happy about the job bajevic has done so far.

Batigol Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 Yes but when has Kokkalis ever been happy with the job that Bajevic has done? Or any other coach for that matter? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CH-Thrylos Posted April 27, 2005 Share Posted April 27, 2005 as far is remember kokkalis brought bajevic back to osfp expecting him to get back the title. but you are right about kokkalis being happy with a coach. this doesnt happen that often. bajevic did a good job imo since osfp hasnt played so good in cl since the last time bajevic was coach. the uefa is another story. bajevic brought in some players that he thought would help the team (okkas, rezic, maric, schurrer) but except schurrer in the beginning and maric now none of them really achieved what bajevic was expecting from them. most of all rezic who sits on the bench now most of the times. okkas as we have discussed over and over again was brought to our team to score. but he doesnt. if there werent rivaldo and giovanni (even if he doesnt play good anymore) we would have lost much more matches. so some of his plans didnt work out. and since we are in greece it is the coaches head that rolls fist.
