Manchester City close to Samaras

[Demis-11]

After losing Huntelaar to Ajax for 9m, Herenveen have agreed with city on an 8.8m euro fee for 20yr old greek striker Georgios Samaras, he is set for a medical on Monday in manchester. Samaras went to the dutch FA to argue that Herenveens 14million euro buyout for the striker was too much and argued for a reasonable fee since hes been at herenveen for 5 seasons and really wants to make the next level, this guy has enourmous potential.

8.8 is a lot of money for samaras. 2 much if you ask me, but good deal for heerenveen.

Man Greek players are all over Europe atleast 10 transfers every week,

I mean with all this, you cant even compete for the World cup ?
Your clubs arent much of a challenge or no challenge at all in Europen competitions

With all this talent Greece should be a power in Europe DEFFINATLY

The best thing for the young striker is not to get invited to the national team until he has time to develop in league. Puttting to much presure on him could ruin a promising career or at the very least shatter his confidence.

I know that, VERY Smart tournament for Greece..

Tactically they were amazing in that tournament and they knew how to beat the teams..

Counter Attack Score 1,
Go back defend the rest of the game thats what they did

Cause when they were up 1 Nil they did not let it go cause they have a very strong defence,,

Thats the most shitty style of play ive ever seen. It was painful and boring to watch them play. Its worse than the grassrolling arabs. They destroyed the tournament with their tactics. If they want to be a powerhouse, they should play normal football.

samaras is going to be huge, he has the talent, he has the mentality, he stated that even if manchester united offered more money he wouldnt go, hes a class act, and is 8.8 really that much
