Sta two faces of Panathinaikou in Greece and Europe focused through him News Bulletin 247 Nikos Athanasiou, pointing out that the issue is primarily spiritual and then competitive.
“I think that Panathinaikos’ problem yesterday, as in the two previous league games, is first and foremost mental. There are moments when you see the players of Kallithea go first and with power to the ball, while those of Panathinaikos are much more lazy. More generally, his image is in all three matches of a team 100% mentally unprepared. It is the coach’s responsibility, just as qualifying for Europe was Alonso’s success. The entire organization has failed to convey to the players how important the championship is. First it is spiritual and psychological and then it is competitive. The important thing is that to his credit Alonso has admitted that there is a problem and a diagnosis, which he refused to tell us. Obviously, there is also individual responsibility of the footballers. You see another team in Thursday’s matches and another in Sunday’s games. On the other hand, time should be given to the “greens” and also to the coach, since we are talking about a new team and we should see if it can improve and progress, without, of course, having any other leeway.“, he said among other things.
The station’s reporter noted that some players like Kotsiras or Cherin were… cracked and it seemed that they should not start in the basic shape of the “clover” against the newly enlightened team.
At the same time, Athanasiou mentioned that Panathinaikos is now called upon to manage the interruption in its favor, so that it does not have a similar image again, which… is forbidden after all, having put himself with his back against the wall.
He emphasized, didn’t he, how during the day or tomorrow morning we will know if the “greens” will make a transfer with a European horizon or we will go to moves that will be made and they will only have the right to participate in the Greek league.
