Is this Malezas' team? -edit- dumb question considering that this is all over the fan sites now. Is this our third K19 coach in a row that has crushed this job?

twitch streams are where it's at!

Will you boycott the B team in the same way you boycott the senior team?

Slowly but surely, more news re: the B team is coming out. Should we create a separate topic for them? https://inpaok.com/690342/xekinise-to-stisimo-tou-paok-v΄/ Gaitanidis looked so damn good that preseason...

Another few names I've been seeing these past two days. Neither would be particularly expensive. Not sure why we'd need another attacking mid considering we have Warda, Kagawa, El Kaddouri, and both of those young guys. And with those random guesses that Lucescu will want to play Zivkovic up the middle... Deiola is a CM that played with Shakhov for a short time in Lecce. https://www.transfermarkt.com/alessandro-deiola/profil/spieler/235931 Malli is an attacking midfielder currently playing for Trabzonspor. https://www.transfermarkt.com/yunus-malli/profil/spieler/85352

Yes, and there's no way he's gonna earn that third year. Calling it now!

May be a done deal with El Kaddouri: https://inpaok.com/690139/eipe-to-nai-o-omar/ Reports that Tuchel plans to cut Baba as well, though that is not assured (neither are we definitely going to be able to retain him, considering his likely salary expectations). Best case for us would probably be if Chelsea keeps him but loans back under the same terms.

AEK should have no problem getting through the first round. Terrible draw for Aris.

I think that's putting it generously. His biggest contribution was getting in the way of Lewandowski's missed header haha

Didn't realize he was a free agent at month-end. This would be a low-risk signing. Anyway, here is a vid. Not bad. You're the one who's living upside down!

Who, Azevedo? ?

Swiderski on the bench for Poland v Slovakia. Would bet that he'll get a few minutes in this game.

Uh, what? https://inpaok.com/689945/kleinei-o-loukas-teilor/ https://www.transfermarkt.us/lucas-taylor/profil/spieler/387928 -edit- Also, we don't have a TD so not sure how we can be "close to" anyone at this point...

Been watching Scotland vs Czechia. That second goal was a real beauty, gotta say. Three minutes to go, not a bad game. Scotland looks more dynamic (and aggressive in the second half) but they can't do jack

How about a player in a position we don't need? https://www.transfermarkt.us/renan-ribeiro/profil/spieler/95142 As noted on a few sites: https://www.transfermarkt.us/andraz-sporar/profil/spieler/179860

Could be. If he didn't want to go back, he wouldn't have said it (probably). On to the next striker, I guess!

Not that I'd complain about this, but this seems to be very threadbare evidence: https://inpaok.com/689561/menei-ston-paok-o-krmentsik-2/ -edit- spelling

So no news is good news? https://inpaok.com/689472/oi-exelixeis-me-ton-pablo-gkarsia/ I wonder how TV (streaming) rights would work with the B team. I'd watch if the games were included in PAOKTV.

I agree. I also don't have a problem with a player participating with their NT, but I DO have a problem with them being penalized for it. If he gets cut, it'll be because he's truly past it. But considering our history of patiently waiting for Biseswar to get into shape, I don't think there's an issue here. Even if he was in the team from day 1, how likely would he be to start over Warda or Kagawa, anyway? Assuming Warda isn't cut immediately haha

If we get this guy, who leaves? Lyratzis I'm guessing

Big "Meh" outta me. He's a free agent at the end of this month right? I'd still choose to overpay for Krmencik over that guy any day of the week.

Yup, thus the boost! Maybe we can hire Fenerbahce to just sell our players for us.

Charisis signing for another two years at Atromitos. Shows they have some faith in the guy after his injury. Of more relevance to us: https://inpaok.com/689242/afxise-tin-prosfora-tis-gia-pelka-i-lyon/ Shameful how little we were able to extract from him. But if they flip him for 10mm, that gives a serious boost to what we gained from him (which now also includes a 500k bonus).

First friendly vs Volos, July 9th? Hmm

You're right, it could be nothing. I hope so! I like the kid well enough but I'm glad we moved on. But I will still say there's nothing worse than hearing "he's not a real ___" - this is the popular thing you effete footballistas say to sound all intellectual-like. I'm not falling for it! He's 100% a winger, damn it!
