Atromitos ended the season with a -5 GD. Is this the fault of their offense, or their defense?

Interest in Golasa from his old club (Maccabi Haifa), another team in Israel, and a Swiss team. I hope for his sake that the Swiss one happens. I like the guy, just not good enough for us.

Fener continuing to sell off players... http://inpaok.com/308147/ Now that would be a bam.

Most the videos I saw were of him scoring goals off of set pieces. Not exactly what I'd mainly look for in a CB

Jean-Armel Kana-Biyik? Only read that he was fast, which is good. Experienced. Not a bam, but hopefully will do the trick.

If they're televised IN Austria, I'm sure a stream can be found

Best of both worlds if we don't draw them. They'd be a great challenge even in a friendly. I'm guessing we'd start off our friendlies vs a relatively easy team? Hopefully not those same guys who cost us Klaus for three months last time around.

Maybe we should hire some of these guys

Itale, how do you get the links to work with Greek from that site? Each time I try to copy and paste the whole thing, it just pasts a bunch of symbols. Also from that site, we've apparently got two more players (a GK and a winger) coming soon. Allegedly they want 90% of the new roster to be finalized before the team departs for training camp. http://inpaok.com/308011/

That's cutting it somewhat close as far as Mak is concerned. At least, depending on how far in the tournament they get.

Stoch for sale, price is 5mmEUR. Can't see us putting that kind of cash down on him.

It. Begins.

...all three of those guys are from Dnipro. What the hell?

Well, that last sentence makes me feel better, at least.

^ the inPAOK article does not translate it in that way: http://inpaok.com/307954 "

I think we're going to put some serious cash down on keeping Mak, but I bet you Kace will be sold. If we do sell him, we NEED to keep Cimirot.

Cimirot is exactly the kind of player we need to keep. We will NEVER play at the level we want, if every player with potential is sold immediately.

I'll meet you guys at your place, if you don't mind giving me a ride. I'll bring loukoumades for your trouble.

That sounds rough. So we'll either go up against a team that's first division quality, or one that just hemorrhaged players due to relegation. Hopefully they're at the top of their game when they play us, we'll need good tests to get ready.

^ Jairo is as injury prone as Konstantinidis. I like the guy, but if this can't be fixed, then he needs to go.

Christ he's beautiful

I would bet good money on Dubai having a league that is run better than ours

Did you nuzzle his beard?

Michel has been at it for a few months now, and they've probably known Ivic was the choice for at least a few weeks. Who knows, it wouldn't surprise me if they took advantage of the head start. I bet those six players are all still tentative, though.

All of this is easier said than done. The first step is being able to actually attract these players. I have my doubts.
