loup Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 Now that our great capitain is calling it a career - thanks so muchfor all the sensational memories - we will be looking for a new man to wear the armband. Make no doubt - it will be near impossible to fill the shoes of Zagorakis - who should be in the dictionary beside captain. :gr: :tup: :nw: :gr: We tried this poll a while back - and Stelios was the overwhelming choice if I remember correctly. My vote this time will go to Dellas, who is getting healthier and is the heart of our back line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DUDE Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 This is something we as outsiders cannot comment on... We dont know who is a calming influence on the team, who is respected in the dressing room, who is strong mentally, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paoktsis Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 First if all I would like to thank Zagoraki for everything he has offered to the Ethniki over the years. I think we need to overhall the ethniki and get some young blood in there. Having said that, i know that the guy I'm about to pick may be a controversial pick, but it is Giourkas for me. 1. I think this season at Athletico is crucial for him, and I feel he's on his way back to the form we saw at EURO 2004. 2. He's young, and if our coach ever decides to stop carrying these non-productive old guys and goes with a younger team, we will need a young captain that will grow with the team. 3. He has significant International experience at a relatively young age, and was a critical player in EURO 2004. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AEKARA-YIA-PANTA Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Katsouranis should be the new team captain. He's one of Greece's most talented players, and he can play any position when asked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thrylos Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 it is a tough call on who the new captain should be stelios, karagounis, katsouranis and basinas are the obvious choices. they are all good at what they do and they have experience and the respect of their teamates. but i think any of these guys (exception of katsouranis) only has 2 years left with the ethniki. the ethniki needs to groom a new leader. who, i do not know. i think stoltidis would have been good if he was younger. who is a greek hotshot that has a long future ahead of him and his teamates respect?

Spears Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 I belive KATSURANIS will be a good choice as it will give him the option of stepping up his game a bit! plus he is the right age and his positioning on the field gives hime the opportunity to lift the players in saying this i dont know what his personality is like!

dark_horse Posted October 7, 2006 Share Posted October 7, 2006 Basinas comes the closest to being a "Vasilis Tsartas", except he hustles more. :rolleyes: I just choose Stelios because I'm his biggest idol. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we have comedians on this forum.....kala I was one of it (would like to know the others... :tup: )and there's no doubt about it, Greece is really doing well with him as the captain, for he can overlook it all and has everything else that's needed for this position also...

drakos13 Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 what an a**hole for a leader......and btw our national colours are blue and white not red and white so Kotapolidis change it or hurry up and pass the band to Katsouranis who is the one who deserves it and is perfect for it.

GS1905 Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 ...so Kotapolidis... i liked that... :LOL: really.. :LOL: :LOL: as a matter of the fact, i think that a younger captain would suit the team better and will pave the way for more and more younger and able players to play for the Greek NT.. i go for either giourkas or katsouranis..

snowyowl Posted November 18, 2006 Share Posted November 18, 2006 ...our national colours are blue and white not red and white...well, I don't know who's responsible for the stuff but that man really should hurry up and change it! looks like a part of another flag... :o ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
