Beechey Posted 14 July 2020 Posted 14 July 2020 (edited) Greek paper Sportday has us linked with him. Apparently Olympiacos want €20m. http://sportwitness.co.uk/leicester-city-interested-greek-international-possible-replacement-chilwell/ Edited 14 July 2020 by Beechey 1
StanSP Posted 14 July 2020 Posted 14 July 2020 Odd, I thought I had that at The Real Greek for dinner once.
frany104 Posted 14 July 2020 Posted 14 July 2020 Off that video alone he looks a very similar player to Chilwell. Looks to have some pace and an engine.

enmac Posted 14 July 2020 Posted 14 July 2020 Better than any winger we currently have. A yes from me. 1

Just strikes me as just another LB name that the media are throwing out to justify endless coverage of a possible Chilwell transfer. Don't think there's anything in it personally, especially with JJ able to play LB and Luke Thomas developing behind the scenes.

What especially stands out is his weight of touch is superb, balls through are often perfect and he knows how to draw attention but also keep enough space to burn them, which is useful at any level. Quite aggressive offensively & defensively which is good but I think he relies too much on pace for defending and in the Prem it'll be a learning curve. It would be a gamble going for this lad, you have to be sure he can play to a higher standard but he's lacking caps & apps to really tell.

Got into great positions driving into the box but poor decisions waste the great openings he had created. Whips in very good crosses and better finishing from his forwards should have bumped up his assist figures.

How can you be “worried about his final ball” when you describe him as a player who “whips in very good crosses”? Lol 1 10
Collymore Posted 15 July 2020 Posted 15 July 2020 Does he remind anyone else of a young Gary Lineker from the video thumbnail?

Lol ...thought I had made it quite clear!!! His final pass within the box fails to pick out a player on his team. He can whip a good ball into the box. Yes, you could say, the term, "final ball" was perhaps, a misnomer in this case.

CosbehFox Posted 15 July 2020 Posted 15 July 2020 Why does Greek football gloriously look like it's been played in the early 90s? The stadiums are beautiful wrecks. 1
sphericalfox Posted 15 July 2020 Posted 15 July 2020 Martin Allen would like him. 'You're not you when you're hungry! Have a Tsimikas!' 3

Sharpe's Fox Posted 18 July 2020 Posted 18 July 2020 The Greeks are certainly a proud and noble people. I, for one, would sign just for the inevitable good times rather than the football. 1
