A win sees us through, just as God intended. I'm gonna be a wreck for the next eight days.

Good news is that none of the yellows will result in suspensions for next game. And IF we progress, these all get wiped out right?

We aren't Fenerbahce, the next game is gonna be ?????

We were atrocious for most of the game, but the beginning and end were good. If we play well at home, we will progress. One game left guys!!! Also - Warda yet again looked soooo good. Needs to start the next match.

GOOOOALLLLLLL

Both wingers have been poor. Warda should come on for sure.

Nice run by Pelkas, too bad Prijovic was mad at the sky

Surprised by this lineup. Jaba over Warda. https://twitter.com/PAOK_FC/status/1031962677944430592

On the plus side, he's just a loan. Buy out is 1.3mm, which doesn't sound too bad. This isn't so different from my hope at us taking Stafylidis on loan for a year until we got the li'l guy back. Mistakidis has been announced as heading out to Giannina by PAOK as well, signed and everything. It's a real shame that Giannina is the only place we could find for him, but at least he'll get a ton of game time.

Turner Sports gets to pick which they show. Benfica must have better brand recognition, for them to be shown live

I believe that because it's on TNT, it won't be available for streaming via bleacherreport live. Bummer.

Here are the players that are traveling: Ρέι , Πασχαλάκης , Σιαμπάνης , Μάτος , Κίτσιου , Βιεϊρίνια , Κρέσπο , Βαρέλα , Χατσερίδης , Μαλεζάς , Σάκχοφ , Μαουρίσιο , Κάνιας , Μπίσεσβαρ , Πέλκας , Λημνιός , Ουάρντα , Ζαμπά , Λάμπρου , Πρίγιοβιτς , Ακπόμ For those that will ask - yes, Lucescu can make a change up to 24 hours before the game, but Wernbloom is not going to be that change. He's training individually, which shows how out of shape he is. I also think the update deadline also applies to the next game, so if he doesn't get put on, we won't see him next week either.

Just learned about this guy today. Does anyone know his story/deal? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Giorgos_Antzoulas Seems strange that an 18-year-old would play one game for Asteras, then get loaned out to Fiorentina (seemingly for free), so they can try him out before paying. Fiorentina could easily have afforded this guy, even if he's just in their Primavera.

Very doubtful that it's El Kaddouri now, as the Italian transfer window closed on the 17th. They can still sign free agents, so if El Kaddouri leaves, we either have to release him or sell him to another country entirely.

This one should also be free to PAOKTV users who had bought the Olympiakos match

Michel confirmed today that Warda is not for sale. So if we do sell a starter, it's gotta be El Kaddouri. Unless there's a shock coming for Mauricio/Pelkas/Limnios/Pashalakis.

Agreed. The idea of him going out on loan is also frankly insulting. If you're gonna make an offer, make an offer. But we sure as s%$#! don't need to loan him out. Especially since Lucescu decided to keep him over Henrique without even having seen him train.

And as for the ages - the gap doesn't matter if that group of nine players does the job. Don't forget Siampanis in that list as well. If the 30 year olds last another season or two (which they should), then the younger ones will be entering their prime.

It's not stupid if the player chose it. But he didn't. Savvidis asked for it so that he can jerk off in a mirror while wearing a Pontic outfit.

The Dutch are very vulnerable now, which is great news. We should be able to gather more points than them this season at least. Good to see Austria down to two teams as well. Croatia outperforming with that single team. Dynamo Zagreb I'm guessing?

Sounds like his marriage fell apart and there may be a video involved. Ouch

Such a stupid request. The club is just this kid's personal playground. Why not have the monkeys dance, I guess.

Stade Reims interested in taking Warda on loan. Lulz.

The Wernbloom transfer seems to have gotten through the FIFA system, as Transfermarkt has updated now. We're at 61mm (EUR), which is the most our team has ever been valued at. Once housecleaning is completed, we'll probably be in the high 50s (also a new record). https://www.transfermarkt.com/paok-thessaloniki/startseite/verein/1091

Not sure how I missed this for two years. Youtube recommended this to me while I was watching the Wernbloom interview; brought a tear to my eye. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_Rs3NI4RUc An absolute embarrassment how he'd been treated.
