I legitimately cannot even follow this chain of events. Wild. https://inpaok.com/785795/den-vazei-myalo-o-ouarnta/ I hope when he retires - be it now, in a year, or in ten years - that some intrepid scholar like Blackhawk will have a book ready for us on this kid's life story.

That second Legia match is at home for them? I think I'd put money on a win there...

Is this the game that was potentially being postponed?

The Marcos Antonio rumor mill is saying that we've agreed terms with the player for a loan, but that Lazio has decided they don't want an optional purchase option for next season - they want it to be mandatory (and allegedly expensive). Meanwhile, Meite is apparently "packing his bags" for the land of Alexander: https://inpaok.com/785595/erchetai-stin-thessaloniki-o-meite/ We could, potentially, have an overabundance of midfielders here soon. Hopefully they get that Colombian guy in quick, to replace Narey. I would not be surprised if Murg makes the squad, with his performances recently. I bet you we'll get one winger in these next seven days and then move for another in December, when there may be a need.

Hahahaha I saw he had moved to Morocco but did not expect this (lol). I wish you could bet on player breakdowns. Bet on Warda burning bridges and El Kaddouri getting hurt; you'll never go broke.

Kind of ugly, but Hearts is not much of an obstacle. If we don't eat them alive in Thessaloniki, the heat will do the job for us. Hot takes: weak-ass penalty given to Hearts Murg > Konstantelias Brandon Thomas has only his workrate and teammate injuries keeping him employed Team was consistently way too goddamn cute with trying to let passes go by them. Bit them on the ass like six times. Tzimas actually held up the ball and attacked....better than I thought? I bet Lucescu was pissed he got all that stoppage time to play in. Soares was fine, but Rahman is a menace; will be great to see him back We definitely need a winger. Taison can't start every game, and Zivkovic eventually needs to be rested. Narey is more concerned with staying uninjured than he is interested in playing for this team.

What does that have to do with transfer rumors? Is it not obvious why a Russian citizen would want to lay low? It's the one thing that troglodyte has done right. Trolls gonna troll I guess

Is there precedence for that? I doubt it. Recall the Iranian footballer who got banned from his NT after travelling to Israel for a game.

Two million seems cheap for his productivity last year...

I don't think it's the first player they've refused to let in recently. Pretty dumb move hiring a pariah in the middle of a war either way.

The tea sippers are holding up the visa for Ozdoyev. Wouldn't be surprised if he is not allowed to enter the country for the first leg. Thumb on the scale, and all.

Tsiggaras also trained normally today, so may be available. I would bet the coach will rest both of them (or use as late subs) so as not to risk anything...but who knows!

On the plus side - the TV earnings will be split by those teams if they make it in, so that trims of the advantage. Just got to focus on ourselves now, and hope the meager funds we may pocket help. Let the foustanellas envelop the kilts, in other words.

This is the best present you've ever given me!

Keep Ozdoev on IMO - he's not gonna get in rhythm with the team if he doesn't get minutes, after all

Taison having such mixed feelings over that third goal hahaha

And Taison giving a card for...pretending? Lucescu too lmao

Penalty for us now, woooooot

lolz

Zivkovic limping, looks like Konstantelias is about to come on for him. Hopefully not serious. I'd imagine Murg gets shifted to the wing now.

Guess they've given up on getting rid of Murg, huh?

Thank God it's not the ACL that was guessed earlier. Sucks that he'll be out but muscle injuries at least can heal...

Since when are our defenders slow? Anyway, couple of articles to share: Karipidis speaks (gasp): https://www.edinburghnews.scotsman.com/sport/football/hearts/exclusive-paok-director-christos-karipidis-speaks-on-hearts-fans-safety-salonika-heat-and-tynecastle-memories-4260217 A kind of pointless article: https://www.bbc.com/sport/articles/c2qlppyr77do

There was a rumor posted on one of the sites earlier that the team has agreed terms with Marcos Antonio and is working on a one-season loan with a buy-out (though I'm not sure if it's mandatory or optional). No idea what the amount could be, though. Lazio paid 7.5mm to Shakhtar for him, with a possible 2mm bonus (which they surely won't have to pay now considering he only played the equivalent of a dozen games last season). Hopefully they are considering him a loss and will just give him away for free...right?

100% us, all day and all night. Though I did catch the last three minutes of yesterday's game and the limey was waxing poetic about how passionate their friends were. Good lord they'll be eaten alive...
