Olympiacos Piraeus

[Faliro]

The club is in a mess.

The favorite now is Marco Silva.

What is this obsession Olympiacos have with Portugal since I started posting here?

Apparently he is already in Athens..

[Godescalco]

We all know you work for Olympiakos, Faliro.

Drop the facade!

Marco Silva is pretty much our collective boyfriend.

SerBenfiquista and Marco Silva are the biggest love story the portuguese internet has ever seen.

So yeah, the guy is good. and he plays offensive-minded possession football. Better coach than Pereira and more fit for the job than the spaniards.




Edit: This was the poll for our choice to be our next coach, at the top of the page. (It was an even bigger margin, it's just that people started to vote for Rui Vitória when they understood it would be him.) http://serbenfiquista.com/forum/mercado/sugestoes-de-treinadores-nao-noticiados/22320/

Marco is a top manager. Good choice.

[Covenant]

Marco Silvs is a very good choice

[Cloughie]

Marinakis is banned from football.

[Faliro]

Officially yes.. He also has to report twice a month to a police station and his bail was set at €200,000. I am not sure there is any evidence against him, but in Greece you don't need evidence to jail someone.

But what is to stop him inviting the new president back to his house and telling him what to do? There are mafia bosses who run their empires from a jail cell.. I think Marinakis will be fine.

Marinakis has just come out and said he is still president of Olympiacos.

[Faliro]

Something went wrong with Marco Silva.. now we are looking at Andrea Stramaccioni..

[Mzungo]

Something went wrong with Marco Silva.. now we are looking at Andrea Stramaccioni..

The reason may be related to the fact that Marco Silva is still under contract with Sporting... I feel sorry for him.

[Faliro]

Yes, this seems to be problem and Olympiacos simply can't wait for the saga to end. Escriba had similar issues.

Everyday without a coach it becomes harder to sign players.

[Impact85]

What a mess...

[Lm27]

Stramaccioni ....really?

[Godescalco]

Isn't there any good and young Greek coach out there Olympiacos can sign?

I sympathized with Lemonis and enjoyed his tenure at Piraeus.

Lemonis was quite a smart manager actually, really really sad managers like him, Tsiolis and Chavos never have the guts to try coaching abroad - instead they get caught in an Sisyphean spin-dry cycle of managing mid-table Greek clubs.
