All that posession and nothing to show for it. Need somebody/something creative to break their solid defense. The longer it goes on like this, the more likely they will get one on a counter.

Lucescu pretty much took the blame for the poor showing so far, and pointed out that the players need to start playing collectively as a team to get results. Prior to his press conference he also talked to the team behind close doors. let's see if they can turn things around.

Deserved loss to a much better and more talented team that converted on their chances. Let's finish up with a win in Finland and then take our chances in the playoff games.

Will not happen, but if by any chance it does, it will be a very big mistake.

Was not able to watch the game and probably it's better that I did not. Sounds like SOS (Same Old s%$#!). Just can't win any games that really count. Maybe this little break will do the team good. Lucescu needs to make some decisions and change things.

We need to forget ManU and focus on Sunday's game. With Konstantelias spending several days in hospital with some kind of poisoning, I don't think he will be in the squad.

We deserved something better from this game. Zivkovic and especially Tissoudali had good chances to score. Had they done it, we would be at least going home with one point. Jonny and Ozdoev my PAOK MVP's in this game.

And that's how you shoot on goal. 2:0.

What the F*** Tissoudali!!!

Common Zivko, that needs to go on goal.

Very dumb goal.

Yeah we got lucky on that penalty non-call. Could have easily been given. We did have couple good offensive plays. So far so good. If we can keep it up like that I think we might escape with tie.

Our fans at Old Trafford:

I would have not started Schwab. I would save him for the 2nd half when we would need to protect the lead or tie.

Here we go. PAOK lineup: ------------ Kotarski ------------ Jonny - Kedziora - Colley - Baba --- Ozdoev --------- Schwab --- Zivkovic ---- Camara ---- Taison ----------- Tissoudali ----------- ManU lineup: --------------- Onana ------------- Mazraoui - Lindelof - Evans - Dalot --- Casemiro ----------- Ugarte --- Amad --- Fernandes --- Gamacho ------------- Hojlund -------------
