Blackhawk

so basically we are looking at ----------------- Melissas -------------- Kitsiou - Vitor - Tzavellas - Leovac ------- Cimirot -------- Charisis ------ Jairo ----------- Pelkas -------- Mak ------------- Athanasiadis -------------

Atromitos - Platanias 2:1, 0:0 AEP Iraklis - Veroia 1:0, 1:0 Asteras Tripoli - AE Larisa 3:0, 3:0 AEK - Levadeiakos 2:0, 1:0 Olympiakos - Chania 6:0, 4:1 Panionios - Ergotelis ----, 1:0 PAOK - AEL Kalloni ----, 1:2 Panathinaikos - PAS Giannina ----, 2:1

Tudor is taking big risk leaving Olsen off the squad for tomorrow. Melissis is inexperienced and was quite shaky in the first game. Hope we don't get burned. Kace and Malezas also left off the squad. Here are the players for tomorrow's game:

Atromitos is the first team to qualify to the quarterfinal stage of the competition eliminating Platanias. The seven remaining teams will be know on Thursday, but following the results in the first leg we have a clear idea which teams they might be: Atromitos - Platanias 2:1, 0:0 AEP Iraklis - Veroia ----, 1:0 Asteras Tripoli - AE Larisa ----, 3:0 AEK - Levadeiakos ----, 1:0 Olympiakos - Chania ----, 4:1 Panionios - Ergotelis ----, 1:0 PAOK - AEL Kalloni ----, 1:2 Panathinaikos - PAS Giannina ----, 2:1

He gets playing time on regular basis. He's ok, but not the "10" that will make the difference. That's why I think we need some experienced player in that position.

I guess Tudor is leaning towards using the same line up as he did against Giannina.

Giorgos Kominis is the ref for this game. So far he has called 4 PAOK games, and in 3 of them he gave a red cad to a PAOK player.

Well the "midget" Vierinha is not a GQ material either. There must be some other magic she does that sets Adelino off.

Apparenly we are after the Panionios CB Dimitris Chatziisaias. Few games I've seen him he was good. He is young and talented, but I don't know if that's what we need right now in that position.

And Leovac will miss Veroia for the same reason.

There is always the possibility that he is just a mediocre player.

That's Vezyrtzis using his good contacts at Metrosport media.

it is also my belief that he brought in Vezyrtzis in order force Arnesen and Tudor out. Those two will be gone in couple months I believe. Vezyrtzis with friendly help from the sleazy Thessaloniki sports media contacts will eventually force Arnesen and Tudor to resign. Today the big buzz among Metrosport's, Arena's and Kolkas's blogs that PAOK is looking for a Tudor replacement and that they already found him in either Anastasiou or Havos. PAE PAOK comes out and denies everything, which makes me to believe that after the return match with Kalloni we will most likely have a new coach, specially if we don't eliminate Kalloni.

I believe after 60 minutes of your original post your are not allowed to edit or delete your post.

I think he is trying to play a system that requires certain type of players. Unfortnately at PAOK we don't have players that can play the 3-5-2 formation. Another problem is that he does not use players in their natural position on consistent basis. He tinkers with the lineup and as a result there is no cohesion within the team. That very evident in yesterday's game. With players we have I think the best formation is 4-2-3-1. He needs to decide who will be the no. 1 striker and stick to it. Is it Klaus or is it Berbatov. Savvidis bringing Berbatov really messed up the team. Having said that I prefer Berbatov to be the starting forward.

Tziolis is out due to cards. Also Glykos, Rodrigues, Kitsiou, Konstantinidis due to injuries. I don't know how the are going to do it, but we need to win this one.

Welcome

Psomiadis was the perfect example why Greece is in a situation it currently is. One of the biggest apateonas who went from a prison torture guard to running professional soccer teams.

2:1 final. With the Mak goal we still have a chance to qualify next Thursday.

Berbatov almost ties it.

2:1 Mak

What a tragic display today.
