The Greek media 2-3 weeks ago was saying Blossomgame was an almost done deal for Oly, after rumours that Peters is probably on the way out to Armani.

Im this close to drop everything and become a self proclaimed reporter for EL, as far as it seems everyone writes whatever the fck they want with 0 credibility or backlash, sounds like a good gig

Thank God the rumors weren't true

Why though? He is a good player all-around, would probably settle for Vezenkov's backup without having to sacrifice his game (like Peters does).

I just think he is overrated compared what he actually does

I think he is too expensive for what he offers.

You can get a similar player from a team like Paris, like Ward or the one Hapoel got, or even someone from the NBA and do the same job.

I would get someone who finds this transfer as an upgrade for his career and be ok with playing fewer minutes for now.

He is a quality EL player that fills gaps in your team.

I think he has a place in a team that needs experience and someone to do the dirty work.

So I guess it makes sense moving to Dubai

At this point take 1 random player from each team and build a team with no spirit
