Especially optimistic about this year Olympic was introduced Nikos Anastopoulos speaking to News Bulletin 247 and Antonis Karpetopoulos on the occasion of tonight’s event for his collectible jerseys at the team’s boutique.
“Olympiacos this year shows that something good is about to happen, if we take into account that 16 players came. But they are quality players. When you’re competing for a championship and a Cup, you want depth. It seems that a very good preparation has been made, because apart from the results, we also see good football and some elements that we had to see from the Valverde era, such as the pressure exerted at the top. Proof is the recognition in the match against Freiburg, where even though the game was not to be lost, the audience applauded the team. It is very important that people leave the stadium happy. Last year even when the team was winning, they left muttering, because something was missing“, he emphasized.
“Martinez organizes the defense better towards the end of the games. You can’t win 2-0 last year and concede two goals at home. That 2-2 of Aris was decisive. This year, with the Spaniard, Olympiacos closes the spaces and strikes on counterattacks. You can’t always play possession football“, added the great striker of the past and current coach.
About tonight’s event he said:It’s not even… a collection, but let’s call it that. It will be a big day, because we will remember the memories of that time, winning the bronze boot, it will be my friends and old teammates who helped me score as many goals as I could against Doxa Drama. But with the stress I had, I scored two goals, but I also missed two penalties. I want to thank PAE Olympiacos and Mr. Marinakis personally, because I will celebrate this important day with friends and fans».
Finally, as a friend of basketball, he made a comment about… Panathinaikos. “I said that they have taken the championship and the Euroleague with their… mouth, but not to diminish Panathinaikos! Panathinaikos does not discuss that it has got good players and a good coach, but that is not enough. Don’t they need some time to ‘bond’? Olympiacos needs the strong Panathinaikos and vice versa“, write down.
