You wouldn't play Camara? @Bananas the Osimhen thing was the result of some weird decision by Conte, who appeared desperate to reunite with Lukaku: https://www.sportingnews.com/us/soccer/news/victor-osimhen-galatasaray-loan-napoli-chelsea-transfer/122aac668c99598ae96432e9 Anyway, here's my lineup. I don't think it's a coincidence that Michailids sat yesterday: --Kotarski-- --Otto--Kedziora--Michailidis--Baba-- --Camara--Schwab-- --Zivkovic--Konstantelias--Taison-- --Chalov-- Wouldn't be shocked if Tissoudali starts at CF, but doubt it. Ozdoyev for Schwab or Shoretire for Taison are also a chance of course. Guess we'll see!

Interested in learning that too In today's news: aek dropped points again, amazingly we are still alone in first place. This is going to be an interesting year...

AAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

My stream (in fact, all the streams I've found) is garbage...why was Despodov's goal disallowed?

Kotarski with way too many great saves for a game that's only three minutes old

The great Diego Biseswar has finally announced his retirement. He first came to us way back in 2016, gracing us 251 appearances, 27 goals, and 41 assists - my God, how time flies... He will start the next stage in his career as an assistant coach for the U20 Suriname team. https://www.transfermarkt.us/suriname-u20/startseite/verein/57263

Schwab and Ozdoyev as a duo are apparently undroppable.

Lmao that's our boy!

Finally, our boy scores: https://inpaok.com/834853/proto-gkol-gia-ton-tzima-sti-germania-video/

Did you consider that perhaps your family is at fault, and you should abandon them? An eagle must not be caged, friend.

Wake up babe, third kit just dropped: Can you imagine @PaokCT and I bro-ing it out on a rooftop as we rewatch old highlights? Steadily getting more and more hammered, horsing around, until he says something bad about Lucescu and I shove him off the roof? And just as he hits the ground, @Dutch Eagle is walking past wearing his Bri'ish-style white wig, and decides to defend me in court from allegations that this was anything but a TRAGIC ACCIDENT?

Since we're now in the free agent part of the year - our B team has signed Pitsotis, formerly of PAO's K19 https://www.transfermarkt.com/dimitrios-pitsotis/profil/spieler/899207 https://inpaok.com/834686/i-stigmi-ton-ypografon-me-pitsoti-pics/

Michailidis was on track to be Koulierakis before we had Koulierakis, but this is a long time to not be getting regular minutes. Surely this is his last chance with us. I'll also say - Koulierakis, Konstantelias, Tzolis, were all home grown players who were actually given a chance. We can't scoff at the thought of calling up youngsters now if we don't know what they can do. 90% will be fairly useless, I'm sure, but you can't find gold if you don't dig.

Now that the transfer window is closed, let's see if I got it all straight: Arrivals Chalov CF Tissoudali CF Gomez LB Tsiftsis GK Camara CM Shoretire AM Colley CB Thymianis CB Bakayoko CM Lovren CB Departures Tzimas CF (loan) F Soares AM (loan) Lyratzis RB (loan) Ricardo AM (loan) Talichmanidis GK (loan) Koulierakis CB Ekong CB R Soares LB Z Zivkovic GK Tsiggaras CM Nasberg CB B team Tsaousis LB (down to B team) Balomenos GK (on the A team roster, likely playing for B team) Monastirlis GK (on the A team roster, likely playing for B team) I think technically we can still sign free agents for a few days, but I doubt we will be. Amazingly, Ally Samatta is still on the roster - my guess is that we will terminate his contract and he'll sign with the Cypriots as a free agent. So, how did we do? Any thoughts? For me - I think we addressed every position of need, but created new problems with the CB position. We should have snagged the Greek kid. Right now, that back line is a big question mark for me. If Colley is our next Varela, great, but I won't hold my breath. My guess is also that Tsiftsis isn't intended to be a Kotarski replacement, so if we sell him in December or next summer, expect a scramble as we buy someone else. Though I do hope that's wrong. We desperately, desperately need actual Greek players in our team. I am ecstatic that a big chunk of our dead weight is gone - mainly Nasberg and Ekong.

Give me the B team player. This is what we SHOULD be doing for our fifth option.

Does anybody know where one can find away fan tickets for the away game vs England? I see on their site that there is a note for "England fans only" on each option.

God damn it. I haven't even started trying to figure out how to buy tickets hahaha

very little

They might be happy just to get rid of his contract. Incidentally, I saw some hypothesizing online a while back that Salzburg didn't actually make an offer for Koulierakis. Essentially, the theory was that virtually no leaks occurred in Austria about the player, implying that their interest was made up by Greek press. Not sure I buy this, but might mean we're still on good terms with the team 😉 -edit- another unlikely one: https://www.transfermarkt.com/ayman-kari/profil/spieler/810093 Doubt he'd want to play in Greece, frankly.

I want to go into the season with the same lineup advertisements for the world cup use - 10 strikers and a goalie LET'S GOOOOOO -edit- unrelated to that, looks like we signed a new kid today - I'm not sure if he'll actually be in our youth team like this site says, vs in PAOK B. https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/mahamadou-balde/profil/spieler/1227246 Incidentally, I spent a few weeks in and around Paphos about ten years ago. Ridiculous accents, would not recommend.

Do I have this right, called up for punishment only to find the alleged events took place out of this group's jurisdiction? One would think a competent authority would be able to identify their jurisdiction before they call "offenders" for their wrist slaps.

I am gracing this forum with my presence to give my pronouncements, straight from Zeus's mouth to your ears: Koulierakis is the best CB Greece has ever produced Fortounis can eat a bag of dicks Have some respect for Pelkas you insolent whelps Game was played at 70% speed and we were (obv) very lucky with that first goal Finland is, however, hot steaming garbage Team should, therefore, look better once they get their mojo Rota did well today, but I don't think we have a single right-back of Greek extraction that deserves to start for a national team The Bri'ish commentator I was listening to was far too dismissive of Konstantelias' dribbling. Find me his name so that I may insult him online. He gets extra demerits for adding a "sh" sound to everyone's name. Pelkash? Bakashetash? Are you kidding me, or do you just live in the Fener? Don't be surprised or upset when a coach doesn't switch up an entire lineup. Teams that have played together always do better than teams that are new. It takes time - perhaps we'll see another one or two changes vs Ireland, who are have a pretty terrible team that we will struggle to beat

Whoa. Sad how it turned out with him. https://inpaok.com/834171/pros-panserraiko-o-ouagke/

Wow, they dropped Vieirinha and Murg! Nice. Samatta and Gomez out as well. I did not expect us to go into this with only one left back...
