Agreed. My biggest worry is that our players will think this will be a walk in the park. We've lost against worse teams with that mentality.

Lamprou will be gone at least another year, so at least you'll get one wish granted. I agree on all three though. Hell, give Limnios back to Atromitos if he's getting regular game time.

Here are the twenty players Ivic chose to celebrate my birthday: Γλύκος, Μπρκιτς, Λέοβατς, Μάτος, Κίτσιου, Κρέσπο, Μαλεζάς, Πούγγουρας, Βαρέλα, Κάνιας, Τσίμιροτ, Σάκχοφ, Κάτσε, Ουάρντα, Μπίσεσβαρ, Πέλκας, Κάμπος, Ενρίκε, Κουλούρης, Αθανασιάδης

If Malta grabs some points off of Albania, Greece will be top of the pot. Looks like this competition uses goal differential as the first tiebreaking criteria, so unless Albania crushes Malta they're in good shape.

Very fast recovery, I hope they're not rushing it. Great news, though

I feel one of the biggest mistakes Ivic made vs AEK were not putting in people who understood how important derbies would be - for me, Pelkas needs to play in the games that matter. I also don't think there's much risk of him getting too many reds here, I'd argue that we should start the guy. Blackhawk, is your lineup meant to imply that Henrique wouldn't be your choice at LW in the next cup game? I'd think both he and Campos would be in Ivic's ideal starting 11.

I'm so ready for this. Lund is going to be missing this game on PAO's side. I think they have a number of other players missing as well. As said above, this is a throw-away game for them.

Between dragging his foot and spitting at people, the guy's an animal

CAN I BE HIS GODFATHER?!?!?!

Here's the play:

Think we'll loan him out immediately?

I've been seeing a surprising number of articles about Zivkovic (Xanthi's GK) being linked with us...which makes no sense at all. Seems it was just a story being drummed up by Serbian media.

AEK currently up one goal vs Platanias

Karelis is back? I thought he was going to be out until summer. Surely he can't be fit at this point?

Apparently he played today, he was their first sub (at 39 minutes). I didn't even notice him.

The deal with Atromitos looks like it's done, we've agreed on 800k for Limnios. Now they just have to seal the deal with the player.

The 9th is my birthday. PAOK needs to give me what I want.

Played in his team's 2-3 loss vs similarly relegation-threatened Ingolstadt. Augsburg really is a poor team, though Stafylidis didn't do much to help while I watched (which was up until around 70'). Interesting that they nearly managed a draw at the end, though.

Trust me, I haven't forgotten

A win by Platanias tomorrow will push AEK into 7th place, as well.

Iraklis and Veroia won 1-0 and 3-0 respectively. Probably too late for Veroia (I hear they're having paperwork issues anyway), but Iraklis is now level with Levadiakos (who they beat) on 22 points

And he just did :(

Warda almost immediately with a nice shot

Warda about to come in for Biseswar

Shakhov on for Kace, who just got a card
