Olympiacos Piraeus

[Faliro]

Milojevic insists on getting Ben. He is his biggest wish of the transfer window.

Yea I kind of like this player.

But it looks like Olympiacos is a difficult negotiator..

Not usually. It could be an issue to do with part ownership.

Our newspapers are writing that Ben is removed from the team because he did not want to extend the contract. True?

I am not sure. Olympiacos has too many strikers. He was likely to be unloaded before he scored those two european goals. After that he got injured and Karim found himself as the main striker so I think he knows he is moving. In Greece most think he is moving team and there has been no stories saying otherwise I have seen. If Olympiacos is playing hard ball it is the first time i have seen them do that.

Boakye + Ben sounds like a pretty good combo.

I like Ben just behind the striker. I think his link up play is under used.

Sadly, we will have to sell Boakye.

His numbers are terrific. Is he as good as they suggest?

To be honest, he actually gives more than his numbers show.  The way he moves on the pitch and leaves more space for our midfielders, how he positions himself..
But he does not convert all of his chances. Had a lot of these in the last couple of matches, but I guess it is also due to the pressure..because he knew he was being watched by a lot of scouts:

Don't think Hajfasi is Oly's quality.

Faliro, whats your input on this?

Hard one. I really like Koutris so don't want the Iranian to take his spot at LB. On the positive the Iranian is a utility player who can also slot in at Left Midfield - he is fairly consistent. I spose the signing adds some balance. We now have 2 LBs and 2 RBs.
