Nikos comments after the FA Cup game against Arsenal: "I was not happy at all to see Arsenal score the first goal, as we were playing much better. However in these games you need to be lucky as well. Performing well may simply not be enough and in this case it was not. We were far better than Arsenal but we could not convert our chances into a goal. If we had scored first I believe we would have managed to qualify. Unfortunately we did not and now we will have to face them once more at Highbury. They will have the home advantage, but on the other hand it was the away game that we managed to beat them! I expect that by that time Bellamy, Dyer and Speed will be back in the squad which will boost our efforts."
Nikos was voted as one of the best Premier League players for the Sunday Mirror February Squad.
