Mohamed Kallon, a striker from Sierra Leone. Tall, fast, not too old at 28, with a natural knack for scoring goals. He was just a few months ago being linked to Portsmouth of the English Premier League. This is really good stuff. Imagine this guy up top with Blanco. As you can see here, he hasn't [.

For a while the Fire have been looking for someone to play along side Blanco. I'd even heard Blanco trying to get some of his National teammates to come up to the MLS and play in Chicago with him. But Blanco and the rest of the Fire may need to learn some French since head coach [...]

Half Empty or Half Full

That seems to be the question on fans' minds these days. And there is no simple answer. A quick look at the transfer market helps illustrate this question. Panathinaikos, for example, made several multi-million dollar signings in the Summer such as star midfielder Marcelo Mattos and are now bolstering their squad even further with the likes of [.

To Play Like Asteras Tripolis

This morning I looked back at my post from yesterday and realized something: there were fewer details from the game than in my usual posts. When I watched the game on Sunday I did not take notes as I normally do. I just watched the game. Why? I'm not sure. Perhaps I was a bit hung [...]

It proves nothing; you know that, right? Veria F.C. was crap. We played well, but not well enough to draw any major conclusions. Still, there were a few surprises that make me truly hopeful about the second half of the season. The first is that Pappas had his first start of the Greek League with AEK.

AEK 3-0 Levadiakos

Rivaldo, Blanco and Lyberopoulos played really well together today. This hasn't always been the case this season, with Lyberopoulos seeming to refuse to pass to Blanco even when he is unmarked. But not today. Today, perhaps due to his own recent lousy performances, Lyberopoulos stopped trying to be the team's goal scorer and instead, thankfully, [.

The Revenge of the Radzinski

Ouch. With that 2-0 loss to Skoda Xanthi, we are out of the Greek Cup. Yesterday, when I found out that Rivaldo would not be playing today, I was actually excited. I was beginning to think Rivaldo was holding us back, slowing our pace, forcing play to move through him. Wow, was I wrong. Without Rivaldo, we [.

Injury Woes

We face Atromitos this Saturday, probably without Dellas, Papastathopoulos and Blanco. This is not good. There is a slight chance Papastathopoulos might be back, but it's unlikely. These three players account for half of our core team. It will be an ugly dogfight without them. Ferrer will have to put a defensive midfielder like Nsaliwa [.

Atromitos vs. AEK Preview

Last time we played we beat Atromitos 2-0. That was at home and we were at full strength. Now we play them away and without Blanco, Dellas and probably Papastathopoulos. Ferrer has not been consistent with his line-ups when missing key players, so I can't predict how he will line up. Instead, I will give [.
