Warda might be injured now as well. Left training in pain - quads.

I'll take Canas over either of them. Mistakidis played as center during his hot streak. Didn't do badly. The thing about Pelkas as a "false nine" is that Ivic is obsessed with height. This is why Pereyra wouldn't get time, even though he was clearly the better CF to Klaus/Koulouris. I can't see him being moved up even farther without having someone tall to play off of.

Draw postponed to the 21st.

His form won't count for much if he's not fed. We'll see what happens. Even if we lose, hopefully we keep it close. Goal differential may count for something when all is said and done.

Draw postponed due to bomb scare....

They got absolutely spanked, Besiktas scored twice more after they went down to ten men.

I think that's probably what we'll see. Overall, I'll just be happy to see Canas in the lineup. What I'd prefer to see is a 4-4-1-1, with Mistakidis playing centrally. Put Henrique on that wing, and if necessary take out the CF if (when) he fails to show up and leave Mistakidis as a loan CF. ---------------- Glykos -----------------Matos - Varela - Crespo - Leovac------- Cimirot --------- Canas ------Henrique --- --- Pelkas --------------Mistakidis-------------- ----------------- Klaus ----------------

Pelkas as a kind of false nine? I kind of like the idea.

Haha Prijovic claiming he'll be back in four weeks. Starting to really like this guy.

This is the same injury he had before we bought him, isn't it?

I'd be fine with that. The other option would be the deal getting cancelled, and frankly I don't want Rodrigues back. Imagine how instantly that would sour the relationship.

What percentage of players on the NT are starters for their teams? Doesn't seem to have stopped Skibbe/Santos/etc in the past.

He's already in surgery. Will likely be back for playoffs, recovery might be 6 weeks. Will miss his first NT callup due to this, though. That must be frustrating. -Edited due to better info-

^ My guess is that Campos won't be able to make that appointment with his NT after all, judging by his injury. That's a shame. Glykos called up (and will likely start). Mistakidis not called up. A shame.

Looks like collarbone. Hopefully not a break. Big blow if true. Seems Klaus' pilgrimage to Crete has paid off.

FIFA's gonna take one look at their name, one at ours, and say "awww shucks, just give 'em a chance!"

He's been getting subbed in around the 60-70 minute mark from what I've been seeing. In addition to Campos being injured, Malezas (who won't be in this squad anyway) twisted his ankle and Matos had a slight knee injury vs AEK.

I think you can say that about most professional athletes. Tzavellas was also all about that photo btw.

So what you're saying is, we're guaranteed to look better on that wing

Can we request that AEK buy their best player before this one?

I don't think it's serious. I don't know if this would have any effect on their TV broadcasts, but fox soccer 2 go (the online service) is going to be showing it.

Mistakidis on for Henrique. Who knows why at this point.

And that goal pretty much ends the game. God damn it.

Good thing that wasn't a goal, though it was offside the flagman clearly didn't see it

Leovac coming on, about time
