Well at least this means we won't be any worse up front

A very surprising red card for...Cimirot? Or the Panaitolikos player? This is odd

The youtube stream looks like it was taken down. That was quick.

GOD DAMN IT BISESWAR YOU NEED TO MAKE THOSE SHOTS

I'd have kept him there too this time, Canas must be getting tired and Panaitolikos is likely to be thoroughly demoralized by this point...

Damn right!

You're a wiser man than I, Dutch Eagle. You tell me ;)

Good luck to them both...Skondras, in particular, deserves to play at a higher level than that. In other news, Galatasaray is unable to pay their first installment for Rodrigues...of course.

The videogame's ratings are subjective. I know of one guy who was on GS who was doing this, himself. Who knows, maybe he was the one who rated Pelkas higher. Apparently it's not hard to get the job, as there are over nine thousand people submitting ratings. AGREED

Vasilis Papadopoulos has been loaned to Karmiotissa FC in Cyprus. Lamprou, meanwhile, looks like he might be on his way (on loan) to Panionios. That surprises me, but I guess it makes sense since they've sold their big fancy striker. By my count (with the help of wiki), that would be 23 players out on loan. Jesus.

The Asteras/Panionios and Xanthi/AEK games both ended as draws. Best possible results for us. Xanthi and AEK both were given reds, as well.

And unlike you, I watch their actual matches. I think most PAOK fans would agree with this, but to each their own. Either would help the NT. FIFA ratings? Life is not a videogame.

Let's all hope that by the time they reach us, they're utterly demoralized: https://inpaok.com/335475

And thus leaves our most underutilized player...a shame

Odd that people are so sold on Pelkas, when Mistakidis is a clearly better player...and also plays almost exclusively on the wing these days. True that we have a winger problem, though. I only really pay attention to those two since they play for my team, but in the context of this convo I can say that while both clearly have a lot of skill, they also have both regressed this year vs last season. In the past month or so they've also started to turn out slightly better performances, at least. Might end the year on a higher note. As for positions - Pelkas is an AM who is pretty comfortable on either wing (but better as LW). Mistakidis is a second striker who this year has been playing almost exclusively as RW, but doesn't seem much worse on the left. Both are still better centrally, in my opinion.

Sounds like all the more reason to switch to a 4-4-2, if you ask me! Or carry that 3-5-2 in the back pocket for the multiple atrocious fields we're going to see domestically.

About time. OFI reportedly interested in Vallidis (on loan).

Isn't that a shocker? It's almost as if it were on purpose, that the top half of the teams did not get drawn against each other.

Could be, he's one of our best players. Sadly it sounds like he's real close to being loaned out to some Colombian team right now. With Prijovic we've got, what, five strikers now? Way too many.

The results of the draw: Κισσαμικός/Παναθηναϊκός-Αστέρας Τρίπολης Άρης/ΟΣΦΠ – Ατρόμητος/Λαμία ΟΦΗ/Ξάνθη – ΠΑΟΚ ΠΑΣ Γιάννινα/Πλατανιάς – ΑΕΚ/Λεβαδειακός

Looks like we've got one of Xanthi or OFI next round

Extended highlights for those who missed it:

Panaitolikos is going to have to massively improve to not get crushed in three days.

Goal for Panaitolikos, nicely taken/done.

Pereyra's story in a nutshell: get kicked in the face, someone else scores a free goal
