    EJ claims for a penalty when he got nudged off the ball, but to no avail.

    Field conditions are horrid. Not sure what Adu could even do in this....but I would like to see it. Doesn't look like it will happen tho.

    EJ makes a nice run, unfortunately Calvo's pass wasn't on target.

    Embarrassing defeat for Aris. I guess they can blow it off due to conditions, but Panthrakikos is in last place by a mile.

    Yeah, this is not good for their Europa push.

    Full time, 0-2 loss, no Adu

    I have nothing good to say.

    I'll just note that neither of the goals came from an aerial attack.

    The good news for Aris is that the teams right behind them have dropped points as well these last two weeks to keep Aris in 5th.

    Sucks not to see Adu play, hopefully he gets his chance Wednesday in the Greek Cup against the same team they played last week.

    I will say that is one of the best streams I've seen on BS in years. Great quality.

    Obviously, Adu should've played.

    Embarassing defeat for Aris, from a relegated team.
    David won Goliath.
    I didnt expect it but this is soccer. If you underestimate the opponent, you loose. Anyway the whole years effort is at Wednesday against Xanthi for quarter finals of Greek Cup. Game is knock out except if its a draw, then we gonna play at Kleanthis Vikelidis.

    This often happens when conditions are that poor. It almost becomes anyone's game and skill is completely neutralized.

    What is the problem with Adu? I've been following him since his brilliant performances on the nats in the u-20s and in friendlies against spain and argentina. Why can't he get playing time? Is it his attitude? To me, his thinking on the pitch is unparalleled, and his foot is crazy talented. Perhaps he is too small. But that did not deter roberto baggio, and others of his stature.

    I mean, if Adu is good enough for the U-20 national team, he can't be that bad of a player. . . to warrant no playing time for every team he plays for. Is there something else going on that we, as plebian fans, are not aware of? He's too good to be cast aside to the farms--it's borderline tragic, considering how good he is.

    Guys, don't rush into conclusions. He hasn't played for two years. I was expecting him to start too (or at least get some playing time), but it seems that he's not ready. I suggest you wait one more month. If he gets less than 180minutes of play, then it means that he's not ready. His time will come.

    Have you really been following him?

    the answer is a resounding NO. otherwise, he wouldn't have asked the same questions that had been discussed for centuries on the various Adu threads.
