Koutsimanis in the SKAI trial: “Loutsescu’s over-rotation does not help”

At Lawsuit against SKAI hosted technical analyst, Marios Koutsimaniswhich gave an account of what happened in Round 1 of the Stoiximan Super League.

What he said in detail:



For Olympiakos’ first place in the standings: “I was not surprised that Olympiacos is at the top of the standings after the end of the first round of the Championship. Madrid know how to adapt their players to the gaps that exist, they took guys from the academy and established them in the first team and rightly they are in the first place. The most important thing is that Olympiacos has confidence with Mendiliber on the bench. And I expected AEK to be there because they have the best material of all the teams, but they play in… red for no reason.”

For PAOK: “The gap of Koulierakis in PAOK is not covered, it would only be covered if PAOK took a lot of money from its coffers to bring in a very good central defender. PAOK has four defensive midfielders, six attacking midfielders, two regional forwards and two centre-forwards who offer absolutely nothing. This over-rotation of Lucescu does not help the players because they cannot be on the pitch with each other and thus there is no healthy competition. PAOK doesn’t have that much depth and unfortunately the PAOK coach over-rotates.”

For Panathinaikos: “Panathinaikos wasted a lot of time with Alonso and I didn’t expect PAE to go for such a choice while Sarri’s name was on the table. Mr. Alafouzos threw a lot of money this year so that the team could win the Championship. But I see AEK and Olympiakos claiming the title”.

For Mars: “He makes simple mistakes which of course he can correct. It has good material and can be wedged into the quad. Also, he should increase the possession of the ball in his games especially against small and medium opponents in order to be able to “survive” against the big ones.
