Topic: Kostas Tsimikas

[Filler.]

We've all had to endure some utterly appalling music over youtube videos but this is undoubtedly the worst. If you like this music I will fight you forever. Hope it's a good sign. Reckon Milner is laughing his arse off. The shame here tho...

edit: ok.. had a moment there...

[soxfan]

Agreed. And these all start the same way.

• shit music
• player standing before match, looking serious
• player jogging on pitch, looking serious
• player tackled, falls on face
• player tackled, falls on face again, in slow motion

Is he having two weeks off or starting training with the rest of the squad this weekend?

He's in Mo's instagram this morning getting what looks like a flight from Greece together to meet up with the training camp.

[JC the Messiah]

Still haven't seen a definite on this, so how in the name of Fowler do you pronounce his surname?

is it sim-eek-as?

I'd go with this:

Like fuck it is haha.

Τσιμίκας = Tsimikas

τσ [ts] Pronounced like chain or touch, but with less sharp accent.

Chimikas

[Ravishing Rick Dude]

My God, he needs to change that name on Instagram.

Mo's message to Dejan, you are not missed!

Anyone watched the Inside Training video from Austria?

He looks, in the few moments you see him, somewhat nervous and apprehensive. I'm not highlighting that as anything unusual, after all it's his first day in a brand new environment with people he's never met. I just thought it was quite a nice little reminder that as much as fans often treat them otherwise, these players are just like us. The same little anxieties over new experiences and whatnot.

I'm probably reading far too much into it, but I thought it was nice to see.

Is there any longer video? I've watched some 2min long video only, and some short ones from Insta stories of our lads.

A good watch that. A few things struck me: Bobby looks sharp, Jurgen could do with losing a few pounds around the waist and Divok needs to raise the seat on his bike.

He obviously does a good amount of exercise - he and Pep are always talking about playing paddle tennis on a regular basis, which is very intense, plus he runs.  That little German beer gut of his is there to stay

Origi really doesn't care about anything. He's always so fucking relaxed.

Is there a transfer forum for this year?

No. These are difficult times. There are bears though.

Looks like Salah has found Lovern's replacement.

I'm sure I heard him telling Kostas, yesterday in the training video, that in Liverpool "lunch" is called "dinner"... lol

[Gray Hamster]

I bet he’s worth 3 times what we paid for him by the end of season

That's great. Ta for that.

Mo "in liverpool they call it dinner but it's really lunchtime". Is right lad. 

Also looks like Kostas has pitched up with a few pairs of his skids and some bog roll. Good lad. What more do you need !

by the end of his first season here? Yes probably.

Did laugh at him with a tiny back pack and Salah there with two massive suitcases

To be fair, I think Mo hasn't been back home since his round trip to Legoland, Dubai and Greece the last couple of weeks. Then again, he seems to live in the same couple of t-shirts so Christ knows what he had in there!

It can't help knowing everything is being filmed on your first day too whilst training with the best team in the world! Under that pressure I'd have probably fallen off my bike or something daft

Shh it's Thiago in there, smuggled in to do a medical and sign a deal - well in the smaller suitcase anyway, not sure what's in the big one...

Not scared to get stuck in during training

I was nerveus first day at my secondary school too.

[Vladi Legend]

Hope the big fella gets a run out today.

Why do we have 2 left backs on the field at once! Klopp (and Pep) out!

[cartmangreko]

Having watched him play since his early days I was quite surprised by this transfer. A move to a top-5 Italian club would have made more sense.

He is a liability defensively and tends to disappear when the match isn't going in his side's favour. He was also outmuscled regularly in the Greek league so I can't imagine what's going to happen in the Premier League if he doesn't hit the weight-room ASAP.

On the bright side he possesses technique, has a high football IQ and is hard-working so hopefully he can improve in the aforementioned areas enough to be a decent back-up option.

[harleydanger]

"You can teach lifting weights much faster than teaching football" would be the quote i'd reply to that estimate.

[xbugawugax]

just took a quick peek at his stats on transfermarkt

dont expect him to score much but 5 assist in 20 games does look kind of impressive.

He does look pretty decent in pre season so far. Need a bit more time to impress Milly though

Is Fokinhal a common Greek first name?

It's popular among families with Tyke antecedents.

I hope he kick Maguire's ass when we play United.
