After the completion of the first nine games in Super League 1, the Fearless figures at the bottom of the standings with just three points and an overall record of three draws and six defeats. Of course this… result has not happened but it is a clear reflection of what exactly happens inside the field when the Peristeriotes enter the field. To put it bluntly, the “blue and whites” have not only failed to stay close to the goals for which they were “built” in the summer, but they have also disappointed the most optimistic fan. They have not even played ball and basically nothing has come out of it.
We could say in the summer that there were 14 transfers and everyone will justifiably need time to be able to perform, but this the excuse no longer passes. When we talk about professional footballers, these are not allowed. The removal of Angel Lopeth and the hiring of the experienced George Paraschos, still, has not worked either. The change of formation and the introduction of the three stoppers may have seemed quite interesting, but with the current situation it enables the opponents to score an average of two goals per game, since, and individual mistakes are a common phenomenon, while offensively it is clear that there is a huge gap between the midfield and the center forward, who in many matches even turned behind the center to get the ball.
The statistics that anyone can take a look at reveal the truth. Atromitos has the worst attack in the league with only five goals (as much as Asteras Tripolis), while with 18 passive goals, it has the second worst defense behind only Panaitolikos (20). Even more heartbreaking is the fact that the top scorer is Strougis with two goals, a central defender who did not even start the year as a key player.
With six matches left until the winter break, everyone’s seats are in the air as it is clear from Atromitos that they will want to find a way to turn the situation around and to avoid entanglements, with or without these footballers, unless they change image. Maybe the George Paraschos not to be responsible (to a large extent) for what comes out on the field since he did not “make” the team, but it is easily understood that if better days do not come, even he will be in the “air”.
The talks are a daily habit in training now, while in the coming days more special four-on-four will follow in order even now to wake up the players. Until the winter transfer window arrives where the roster update, all that can be done is to try to bring out the egoism of the players, but to get more participation time children who had a limited role. The beginning has already been made with Kivrakidis, who is a great asset for Atromitos, the return of Harisis from his injury, but also more young people who will have the appetite and motivation to offer.
