heart_fan10 Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Arrived in melbourne few days ago, out of favour with the new coach at PAOK in the Greek Super League, and is looking for a spot in the a-league with Heart or the Visitors. 23 year old striker, 6 foot 1, has represented Australia at U17 level and also represented Greece at U19 and U21 level. Wouldn't take up a visa spot, could be a good backup striker to the visa striker we sign. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heart of Melbourne Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 I'll tell you that he is a gun. Prefer giannou over Hoffman and dmac. Our board is probably still in holiday mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theresonlyonebzamora Posted May 21, 2013 Report Share Posted May 21, 2013 Regardless of his ability to do cocaine, does this really need to have its own thread? Can't this be considered a potential a league signing? Maybe I'm just struggling to cope with the amount of active threads... Oh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heart_fan10 Posted June 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 not sure what was discussed yet, all I know he met with JD, and also spoke to Ange He's been coached by Ange before at junior level so it could be a factor in deciding which Melbourne club he goes to. As I said earlier in the thread, he's still contracted to PAOK, but has fallen out of favour with the new coach who has told him to search for a loan deal So if he does sign for us it'll most likely be a loan deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need some clarification on the joining of Dmac & Hoff, does Dmac inherit Hoff's ability to look like a traffic cone whilst on the pitch as this ability far outweighs all other abilities? If this is the case Messi and Hoff combined would also be a traffic cone. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what sends clubs into administration. If we can get Holt on a free transfer I'm all for it. With regards to Karagounis he would work both on and off the field. But I very much doubt it this would happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I very much doubt it this would happen. Getting off topic here but not sure why people are so obsessed with a transfer fee. Just consider it to be part of his wages (ie. if transfer fee is 2 mil and we're paying 1 mil in wages, consider it paying him 3 mil). Is he worth it? Not sure. But we're only allowed 2 marquees so we might as well get the best 2 we can afford. Can we afford it? Only the club really knows. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heartrate Posted June 5, 2013 Report Share Posted June 5, 2013 His uncle (whilst doing data cabling at my work) mentioned he was a bit of party animal, didn't take his game too seriously and preferred socializing over football. Has now matured and just wants regular game time (preferably at home). I wonder if it will be the red side of Melbourne... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
