paokarag4 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Well we never thought that signing of Vierihnia could actually be cover for right back and we can finally unleash Matos in his natural position, as a centre forward ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly, he'd scored a lot more goals than most in the PAOK squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pash Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 If Koulouris can do what Klaus couldn't last season (be fed), then we'll be fine with him as the #2. New season, upgraded team, let's see how this goes. Now to get the confirmation of our new CB and I'll be able to rest easy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackhawk Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I think it is 4.2 mil for 3 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pash Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 A little less than I feared, but still way more than we should pay. Also reading now that Henrique has agreed to the loan, but PAOK has refused a buy out clause. Good move on our part, if true. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackhawk Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Also Qarabag will pay his full salary (700K) and apparently also 500K for the loan. I agree pash that it is good that there is no buyout clause with Qarabag. If they really want him after this season the buyout clause is 5 mil.

pash Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 For five million, I wouldn't argue against a sale. Hell, I'd toss in a hand job too. Get ready little Savvidis, you might be called upon to perform. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BostonThanatos Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 So, the only thing we're waiting for now is Sabrano. When is Mystakidis due to return? Hopefully he hits the ground running and shows he belongs on the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BostonThanatos Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 Is Lucesco a 4-4-2 guy? Do we now have the talent in the backfield to pull off a 3-5-2 if Sabrano is on board? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BostonThanatos Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 What's the word on Vieirinha's injury? Is he out for a while, or is he on the mend and ready to practice? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackhawk Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I think he was faking the injury in order put pressure on Wolfsburg to release him. Hopefully the past couple weeks he was in Thessaloniki were not spent in gyradika. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BostonThanatos Posted August 31, 2017 Author Share Posted August 31, 2017 I know my first 2 weeks back in Thessaloniki would be evenly split between Gyradika and Bougatsidika... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do we now have the talent in the backfield to pull off a 3-5-2 if Sabrano is on board? He's used the 4-4-2 a few times at the end of games. Remember that Mistakidis also can play as second striker (personally I think he's even better there). Lucescu will definitely have some options if he wants to go with two up front. Not as sure about the 3-5-2 - I mean, last year's team did fine with it a few times, but rarely against strong opposition. Tudor made a 3-4-2-1 "work" as well, which is really not so different a formation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pash Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 Lucescu is also a fan of the 4-2-3-1, so I think we'll see a lot of this in the next month or so. Hopefully it's not *too* defensive. --Rey-- --Matos--Varela--Samprano--Leveque-- --Canas--Mauricio-- --Campos--El Khaddouri--Mak-- --Prijovic-- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teke817 Posted August 31, 2017 Share Posted August 31, 2017 I am still stunned that Vierinha actually happened ... after years of rumors, the dude followed through with his promise and returned. @pash you will have to rethink your lineup ... --Rey-- --Matos--Varela--Zambrano--Leveque-- --Cimirot--Mauricio-- --Vierinha--El Khaddouri--Mak-- --Prijovic-- This is what I see happening ... Canas probably in for Cimi when healthy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
