As a Chinese person I find this offensive

Awww jeez man is his buddy Mitso hitting the sauce again???

Read in one site that there is an agreement to pay 2mm for Misic, in two installments. But in another site that it's 2mm for 50% of his rights. Is this like playing the telephone game? A few people hear a rumor, pass it along, and when it gets out the other end it's turned into all sorts of other things?

It was always gonna increase when they re-opened but I also suspected that lax enforcement was going to play a part as well. We are not a well-focused people!

I'm gonna modify that just a little - if we make it to the group stage, the four or five players we need to lose are not going to be the difference maker, judging by their recent performance. No way we drop like, 10 players.

Also now seeing that Lucescu's team is expected to make an offer for Biseswar. His wages aren't crazy and we won't make a lot off of him but I still think this is a good opportunity for both sides.

I doubt Vieirinha will go and def expect him to take a pay cut, but if Lucescu can give him a big final pay day, then good on him. Limnios is trending to be like Kitsiou (who is also rumored to be coming back to Greece, this time to play for PAO) - a good player who fails to take that next step. Sell sooner than later.

Let me also guess - 18 teams PLUS a play-off, right? Make sure our season lasts for 11 months at a time.

Seeing new rumors of Limnios being linked to Torino. They can certainly afford him, though who knows how accurate the rumors are. They seem kind of stocked up at winger, IMO

He's been linked with them for a while now and I say we let him go. Stafylidis also linked with Trabzonspor. Interesting that they can afford him when they are banned from UEFA competitions due to FFP violations. When does the transfer window open, anyway? August 1st?

I think we're going to be unbelievably unprepared for qualifiers...yikes

Doubtful:

^ a lot of people assume their team is ignoring issues when the problem may just be an inability to coax anyone to come play in Greece. This happens on this forum all the time as well. Sometimes, the choice is between a shitty option and no option (and why spend money on a terrible option?)...

So apparently the team's break will go from the 20th through the 28th? With preseason starting on the 30th? Ouch. But it's true that there's like no time to waste; we will be playing the qualifier on the 25th or 26th of August...

Yes, we're aware. Ultimately both teams won, so this will be decided on the last match day. Sivasspor will need to win to make the qualifiers (and give us a seeded spot).

So Sivasspor is still winning, Besiktas is still 0-0 (half time for both games). If the results stand Sivasspor will be three points ahead and they have a better goal differential. -edit- I should note that Fenerbahce is playing with ten men (since the 25th minute). Chances are that Besiktas will win this, though even if they do they'll still be in third (assuming Sivasspor still wins). As a reminder, next week is: Genclerbirligi - Basiktas Goztepe - Sivasspor We might end up seeded after all.

Yup, unless someone does something retroactive re: standings. I'm sure we'll get a punishment for Vieirinha's red card ?

Congrats you rascally winner!

They def heard about the AEK loss at halftime and stopped giving a s%$#!. Nice little send-off for Vieirinha

Did I just see a corgi run by??

This wasn't the last game of their season right? I thought they were going to go a week or so farther than us?

Stoch and Vieirinha coming on, for Mihaj and Rodrigo

If Esiti is in then he should take off one of the CBs...

Esiti and Akpom in, Biseswar and El Kaddouri out.

Yup, agreed Earlier I saw Vieirinha, Limnios, and Esiti warming up. No Jaba today unfortunately. But at least we'll have some more attacking players coming on.
