You're probably right about Shakhov. I think Campos's problem is more mental. If he can over come that I think he will help.

Shakhov is injured, and hopefully won't be ready by Sunday.

Looks like our fans getting ready for Sunday's game.

And subbed by Korovesis. Looks like no rest for Biseswar.

Cimirot in for Canas

Thiam in for Mystakidis

Koulouris is just another version of Klaus minus the tattoos. He has youth and much lower salary going for him if Klaus does not start putting them in the net.

Σιαμπάνης, Τιάμ, Τσίμιροτ, Κοροβέσης, Δεληγιαννίδης, Πούγγουρας, Δημητριάδης

Nice pass by Biseswar and a great finish by Facundo. Klaus, Campos and Rodrigues should take a note on how to finish chances.

And here it is. Pereyra. What a beauty.

We need at least one more so we can rest Biseswar and Canas for the AEK game.

There has not been any improvement by Kitsiou in the past 2 years. No wonder he is now a bench player.

Finally Mystakidis

Don't know if we are that good or if Larisa is so bad. Should have been at least 3:0 by now.

Complete domination so far, but only one hit post to show for it.

I really like the broadcasts without the announcers.

Laola is streaming all the Greek Cup games, including PAOK ones.

Lineup:

Well I am a White Sox fan, so I had to bring up the curse for kazoura purposes. Anyway, I think in the end the Cubs will win the series.

I would have Cubs as the favorites to win the World Series, but Cleveland has been playing some excellent baseball in the playoffs. Should be a good series. But let's not forget the Bill Sianis curse ...

Yes it can backfire on Ivic, but his thinking probably is that we still have two games against Football League teams that we should win and still finish first in the group. He is probably looking at the schedule ahead and what he is looking at is Larisa (home), AEK (home), Qarabag (home), Panionios (away) in the next 12 days. The last 3 games are pretty much must win and he will need the starters rested for those games.

Looks like ERT World wants to become available on various cable platforms in Europe. Also looking to find somebody to carry their signal in Canada.

Here is my lineup for the game. Hopefully this rotation will not be a disaster. --------------------- Brkic --------------------- Kitsiou - Poggouras - Malezas - Crespo Canas ---------- Cimirot --------- Charisis Mystakidis ------ Pereyra --------- Thiam

We are looking at a major rotation in tomorrow's game. Ten players did not make the squad. Four of them are injured: Leovac, Tzavellas, Pelkas and Shakhov. The other 6 that will sit this one out are: Klaus, Rodrigues, Varela, Glykos, Matos and Campos The squad announced for the game is: Brkic, Siabanis, Giannoulis, Poggouras, Korovesis, Kitsiou, Dimitriadis, Canas, Biseswar, Charisis, Cimirot, Deligiannidis, Koulouris, Pereyra, Thiam, Malezas, Crespo, Mystakidis

Savvidis already spent quite a bit of money on PAOK. Well over 90 mil in the last 5 years. Some of it were money well spent (paying off the various team debts, Toumba improvements, training facilities improvements), some were spent on players that turned out to good buys, but a lot of it was wasted because he has no clue on running a soccer team, and the people he trusted to do it for him just misused the money. He himself made some very bad decisions (signing Berbatov, Natcho, Noboa, etc.) Hopefully with Lubos Michel he found the right person steer the team in the right direction, and PAOK can get the maximum bang for the money that is invested in the team.
