Abel Ferreira’s Palmeiras beat River Plate 0-3 last night in the Copa Libertadores semi final first leg.
He seem to be getting a lot of praise in Brazil for the great start he has had there.In my mind he is the kind of coach who needs a good team to do well. Not to get the best out of a team with serious limitations

The problem is that you believe what Raptopoulos says. The biggest anti-PAOKtzis I ever heard. I would not be surprised if he is on the payroll of Karapapas. His goal is always to stir things up at PAOK.
I thought I was the biggest anti-PAOKtzis there was. Feelsbadman

My Anti-PAOK takeaways
- Thank god Pouggouras doesn't play for us anymore. At least three times he pulled on our players shirts in the penalty box clearly because he can't mark a player properly. Karol should have had two penalties at least. Yes they weren't simantika interferences but they were clear and right in front of the ref.
- Giannoulis needs to grow a brain or at least some poniria. If you are gonna go and retaliate on Aitor don't give him a shove in the back in the BLOODY PENALTY BOX. He is fortunate that wasn't a penalty because to me it was as clear cut as the red card Aitor should have received.
- Swiderski is our best attacker. His efforts in the build up to his goal and his general all around play put him head and shoulder over Colak. Unfortunately this means that the money we spent on Colak was wasted. I hope Colak discovers some vein of form that turns him into Prijo 2.0 but I can't see it.

There better be a few signings then over January. Especially in defence with Wague gone too

Is this legit or just innuendo and mlkies?

Correct. Needs to start at a grassroots level. But interest needs to be there first. If you can get a couple quality players to go overseas and play for PAOK, then we may do better in Europe , raising awareness for the team. Then we could start doing clinics, camps, etc...
I have thought of this previously. The easiest way for the club to do this would be to scout some girls of Greek descent here or in NA or maybe Germany where they've had a more extensive grounding than the greek girls.

It’s a goal and dream of mine to go work over there with the women’s soccer federation and help improve it. I coach in the US at a high level for women’s soccer and I want to help create a feeder system between girls here and there that can improve the quality of play.
The problem being, if you don't have a grass roots level system, how can you have an elite system.
It would be like Australians trying to compete on an international level in Ice Hockey, or Americans in cricket.

The US team is the perfect example of funding for development over funding of elite clubs combined with participation. The in built college system helps with the ID of talent.
I imagine the issue for the US system is as the European leagues expand outside of the traditional Sweden/France/Germany into the other major nations and beyond how does it retain talent. At the moment the US girls are going over, but I can see in the next decade EU will have enough homegrown talent to not require them.
Then as the US league is no longer a destination for players because everyone wants to play champions league, what do they do.
Also, I tried to go on the EPO's website to find out about junior football and all I could see was some national U12 tournament/competition. Nothing about women's or junior football. I'm not surprised, just saddened.
-
I agree completely. The problem for areas with low participation levels is that the ability to ID and develop talent is much harder.
I'd love to know what is any kind of pay the PAOK players get and what the numbers of registered juniors is.
For example my daughter's club is not an elite level [WNPL] club but it is the second biggest junior club in the state. It has multiple teams in every age group from u9 up to u16 and then two open age teams [seniors/reserves]. That's over 100 females playing, developing, competing from an early age. Does this happen in Greece?
Outside of the big clubs what is the competition structure like for juniors?

PAOK (W) - Benfica (W) 1-3. PAOK’s goal by Vardali.
Just to give you an idea of generally the state of greek football.
Benfica got mauled today conceding 5 goals in the first 55 minutes to Chelsea.

Government says number of daily infections, based on a seven-day rolling average:
• Currently at 1,609.
• Was 2,674 in mid-November.
Needless to say this is Greece not the US

That was all I could have hoped for and more
Truly stunning

Because that's where he belongs. He has not shown that he has a spot on this team. And that is saying a lot.
Agreed. We play better with Karol in the team [not great, but better].

We have few true food abominations here [there aren't many true Australian dishes]. The worst one that comes to mind is the pie floater, it's a meat pie floating in a pea soup.

I honestly didn't know that dish existed until like two years ago and I have tried it a few times since. Absolutely revolting.
A few times? After the first couple you thought this might be redeemable?

He should really just play at his position which is CB next to Varela. Something that he will do on Thursday against Omonia.
Interesting to note that Esiti did not make the squad.
I think the lineup tomorrow will be:
------------- Zivkovic --------------
Rodrigo - Varela - Michailidis - Pereira
----- Augusto -------- Schwab -----
Tzolis --------- Murg ------ Vieirinha
------------ Swiderski --------------Michailidis back there gives me no confidence, but this is the kind of game the kid needs to build his experience.

No I'm definitely anti PAOK you've worked me out. I'm secretly a Russian bot hired by a competing oligarch to Ivan. I have come to this forum that is so popular to post my propaganda in order to convert the 30 or so PAOK fans to sacrifice their first born children to Marinakis.
You can find proof of this if you just click my username, you can do a deep dive on all my posts to satisfy your conspiracy theory loving heart, when you've finished your detective work I expect you to send the AFP around to my place.
Also on a serious note, work on your comprehension. I didn't say we didn't lose the match in midfield and I didn't say it was Garcia's fault we lost the match [I also didn't say to take out Iggi] so if you're going to go name calling at least do me the courtesy of understanding what I wrote.
I was specifically talking about the choice to play Crespo and keep him there for far too long.

So Krmencik has done mare in two weeks than Colak in half a season. The question is, is he that much better or has the addition of Warda and what he brings making the gap between performances so big?
