His account of her progress AEK in the season that just ended he did on the NovaSports channels show, “Monday FC” o Demis Nikolaidis.
The veteran Union striker referred to the outstanding players but also to them who fell behind in relation to the last season, while expressing his opinion that the “yellow and black” do not need many changes, but few and good.
What he said in detail:
“AEK creatively is not inferior to last year. The defense made the difference, the opponents found more opportunities. The opponents read it. Maybe also Almeida didn’t have the experience to manage the team having so many demanding matches in Europe”, Nicolaidis said characteristically and explained: “They absorbed a lot of energy from the players. AEK did not finish like last year in the red, they were a bit tired. AEK’s matches in Europe were very intense. Maybe it could be better managed.”
Last year he got a double, this year he lost it by a goal, for a phase. If Sastre’s goal hadn’t gone in, AEK would have won it. So if that goal hadn’t gone in, Almeida would have been successful and now he’s a failure? It went well, it could have gone even better,” said Demis to refer to players.
Last year AEK had many players in very good condition. This year they were tired. Pineda didn’t have the same energy. He didn’t rest at all. Vida stood out, even though AEK was not that good defensively. After all, this has nothing to do with the two stoppers. Eliason, Amrabat also stood out. Ponce, too, was just slow to get going.
The good finish of Zuber, Gacinovic, Araújo was missing. Araujo was giving the signal for AEK’s pressure. This was also missing this year. With a healthy Araujo, things might have been different. AEK needs a few good moves. It’s not a team that wants a lot of changes. Why make many changes? He wants specific and few changes”.
