As they say Giannis Alafouzos“There are things that are done and not said and things that are said and not done.” As of Thursday, the decision was made to change coach in Panathinaikos and the examination of names for the succession of Danny Pogiatos had begun. Until Thursday, the same day that PAE had reported – on the occasion of the reports on the ‘Xavi Roca final’, that “no decision has been made about the coach and the technical director of the team.” The decision was made by both of them! Obviously, it was easier to find a new manager and terminate his contract. Pogiatos the finding of a new technical director and the “divorce”, of course, with compensation for the Xavi Roca. That’s why for the moment … he stays until the Catalan technical director leaves … This time the Panathinaikos did it … the other way around. Instead of hiring a manager who would evaluate Pogiatos and select the new coach, he first changed managers.. But so is Giannis Alafouzos. When … the button rotates, … it scans them.
MAURICIO SCORPA SMILES, BUT WILL BE JUDGED IN COURT
First decision, your transfer Mauricio. With a contract of 550,000 euros per year please! Right; At first glance complete! Panathinaikos has suffered from back pain for three years! Dolores in quality, but mainly this year and in … quantity. The distorting lens of the playoffs in which the young Alexandropoulos-Serpezis took his time to participate should not alter reality: Panathinaikos “retired” last year and last year the entire regular season with only three midfielders in the positions. “6” and “8”: Kourbelis, Donis and (alternately) Katse last year before last and Anouar in the second round last year. Zahid helped the organization a lot as a “real” ten, but had neither the physical talent nor the careers to respond like an “eight”, Ayub, who was acquired in January, did not help and the 32-year-old Brazilian goes to Panathinaikos as a previously useful and successful handover.
But beware! Everything and everyone is judged on the field. Because Kolovos last year had all the conditions to have a positive course in Trifylli, it was the only transfer in which everyone agreed (Donis, Dambizas, media, fans, everyone!), and yet he didn’t “catch”! PAOK fan favorite Mauricio “clicks” on all devices, has experience, has performances and personality, can play in “6” and “8”, meets all specifications, not to … take off Panathinaikos , but to help him substantially, both offensively and suspensively. It was not a coach’s choice. It was not a technical director election. It was Alafouzos’s choice. Like Moledo. Like Odysseas Vlachodimos. Like … Fotis Ioannidis. We are looking at the player, not whose decision it was to acquire him.
THE “DIVORCE” CRITERIA WITH ROCKA – POGIATOS
Decision # 2: “divorce” with coaches and technical director. In these cases, the key question is WHY you decide to divorce. If Panathinaikos decided to fire him because he had a point from three league games, they were wrong. One would ask: “If I had two wins, would a draw have ruled them out?” Probably not, but it’s a good example. Tangible reality is a degree. Last year, Giorgos Donis also had one who wanted to resign after the “four” from Aris to “Kleanthis Vikelidis”. Then, however, first the manager and then the players supported him. In words and deeds. Dambizas was fired after a month, but supported the bases of the project (players + coach), despite the failures in the transfers. Now, Roca did not support anyone. Not even himself. That is why the (correct) “divorce” decision was made when your replacement is found. Not so much because choosing an inexperienced coach is “loaded.” But for what he did and did not do in the transfers, for her his chaotic distance from the changing rooms (he never “conquered” the ideal image of the boss – partner), for the department exploration (still incomplete …), for Molo – Bek – Kampetsi, due to the fact that he ultimately never fulfilled the duties of the football department leadership. Roca behaved more like to explore at Panathinaikos and the position of technical director includes much more than that …
As for Coach Pogiatos? The truth is that he was judged very harshly, very quickly. Unfortunately for him, the development of the first three games (and many of his selections in them) did not help him to fend for himself, to score points in player / management / rating.media/fans, to boost with confidence. Well, it can be said that they did not deserve this final (and Bologna stayed in Ghent for three games!). However, on the other hand, you cannot put your hand on fire and say with relative certainty that Panathinaikos would improve with the 42-year-old on the bench. He got very confused with the Carlitos – Makeda duo, he was pressured and stressed on the bench during the matches, he made inexplicable movements (change of Kourbeli in Tripoli, change of position of Makeda at halftime of the match with AEL), He swam in murky waters and found no lifeline even in the match with Aris, in which he presented a “streamlined” team, which only unfortunately / failure did not get a point in the second half.. This decision of the administration is also correct, but with great risk the … next.
THE BOLOGI EXPERIENCE IS NOT AN ISO SUCCESS
The 67 year old Laszlo boloni who comes from two “divorces” in six months with Antwerp and Ghent will be respected by everyone in the locker room, that’s a fact. And with your help Sotiri Sylaidopoulou being promoted to assistant by a green K-19 trainer, he will more smoothly adapt to the unknown (this should have been done with the Pogiatos – Sylaidopoulos duo). The Romanian coach, however, is no guarantee of success. He does not take anyone with him I SO reliability. It seems incompatible with the Panathinaikos events of this period, what is based in recent years as a philosophy does not go with what Panathinaikos players are taught with Donis and Pogiatos (“possession / circulation” football with many difficulties to create opportunities and to score), but in any case, if you have Mauricio and Vigiafanies, you can present something better. Let’s not assume in advance that you will be successful because you have … experience. Although we do not rush because of its failure because it reaches foreigners for the first time in ten years in our country.
And Giannis Anastasiou, after all, when he took over at Panathinaikos in 2013, he was a pioneer. In his 40s. Having served only as an assistant (to Henk ten Cate) at Clover and in English reading. But he did, unlike the also inexperienced Pogiatos technician. So let’s be patient. Panathinaikos could choose Anastasiou, Dellas, another 45-50 year old foreign coach, but decided “Bologna”. And the stadium will be the only mirror, after another change of everything with the responsibility of the largest shareholder.
