Olympiacos Piraeus

Well, i don´t have the knowledge to make an informated opinion. Seems like a lot of Mexicans thinks it was staged for political gain, but i don´t have a clue. The important thing is that Alan is safe.

Def it is interesting to investigate those who think it was staged. This was one of the major instigators of the hoax claim.

I tend to agree with this guy who comments on the above thread..

CitaçãoI'm not from mexico, but I used to go down there a lot for business, manly in Sonora, in the heart of cartel country It's not unusual for the cartels to have kidnap and extortion squads. But they are opportunists not planners. They will not particularly seek out a certain victim, BUT if they know the whereabouts or schedules of one, they will try and take advantage of the situation.
In this case, I hink it was more an opportunity than a plan, especially if he is from that area.
As for police involvement? YES. Most likely some corrupt officers eitherknew something or were paid to look the other way. Politically inspired. NO. Very little of a wining situation to be involved in this, bad or good (like it turned out) I suspect we will no more in a few days.

What a clusterfuck that Pulido situation is... If it was staged I don't really know what to say..

Anyway, a player who has their closest family in those places the first thing he should do with the money is get them out of there. It's safety 101

Symbol?

Was another very successful season for us as a multi-sport club. First column is the league, second the Cup. From the top, football, female football, basketball, female basketball, vollyball, female vollyball, Water polo, female water polo.

I believe he's talking about the Olympiakos badge.

Marco Silva is giving an interview right now in a portuguese TV show.

If something interesting or of note is said,I will mention to you.

So far from what i`ve seen.

toughest losses for Marco Silva: He said Arsenal at home, both with Anderlecht and cup final with AEK.

Marco just stated that till now, he hasn't received interesting offers, so he's going to stay at Olympiakos for the next season. However, he also stated that he has a strong desire to win portuguese league...he seems destined to manage Benfica after greek adventure.


Also stated that greek league is inferior to portuguese one, and that people at Greece were impressed with Mitroglou's performance, saying that he looked slimmer. Marco said to them, that he looked that way, because otherwise he wouldn't play at Benfica. He thinks greek players need to have different experiences in order to develop as players, because greek league level doesn't allow them to fulfill all their potential.

I think this is also interesting: "Olympiacos should impose their interests". About the cup controversy.

We were severely bullied and didn't stand a chance in that final because we hadn't played a game within a month. He is correct. I even thought the fiasco would push Marco out of Greece. Basically PAOK, PAO, AEK and the government all damaged Olympiacos this season behind the scenes.

He stated the cup final was the biitter moment of that season. Even worse than Arsenal home defeat and Anderlecht elimination. And all because that, in his opinios, club's rights weren't defended. One day players were booking vacations because no cup was going to be held, the other, they had to cancel everything. The final was played 1 month after league end and that is something you don't see anywhere else.

Marco is a fighter and never gives up. He have a great character.
