Exactly. Bad management choices by Savvidis the last 4 years. At the beginning of each season he comes up with a new 3-year plan only to be abandoned half way through each season. New person comes in, so the old one can be blamed for poor results.
Not only PAOK fans don't have the patience to build a team, neither does Savvidis. I really though with Arnesen coming in this would change, but unfortunately it will not. Another season down the drain.
-
It was Tudor's assistant through Arnesen that wanted to bring Galitsios to PAOK and Vezyrtzis put a stop to it.
-
Galitsios deal is off.
Arnesen (Tudor) - Vezyrtzis 0:1
-
The next 2 friendlies for the NT are:
24-March: Montenegro
29-March: Iceland
Both games at Karaiskakis. Apparently Greece does not exist beyond Athens and Piraeus.
-
On top of that, Galitsios was brought in by that scum agent Paul Koutsioliakos, who was screwing with PAOK last season with Fortunis. That guy should have been banned from Toumba.
-
When Arnesen signed with PAOK I asked if PAOKtsides have the patience to wait for a team to be built. Apparently that patience has run out and the Arnesen experiment barely lasted half a season.
It's apparent that a civil war within PAOK has begun. Savvidis brought in Vezyrtzis earlier this month and basically gave him the same duties as that of Arnesen's. The apparent Galitsios signing is the first test in the Arnesen - Vezyrtzis battle. My prediction is that Arnesen along with Tudor will be gone by February or March.
I always try to be an optimist, but I am starting to believe that we will never build a team that we all can be proud of.

Once again we are linked to Coulibali from Platanias.
-
No he would take the position that Pantelis Konstantinidis had in the past, and the one that Tasos Kakkos would take over if there was no backlash from the fans.

Anyone use any greek torrent sites?
I mainly use Kickass or Piratebay for English music but they struggle with Greek :(
any recommendations?
https://kapaki.info is probably the best Greek torrent site currently.
-
Looks like Charisis, Vitor, Kitsiou, Jairo and Savvidis are ready for full practices, and might be available for Sunday's game.
-
I don't think Arnesen is so stupid as to bring in Schildenfeld back to the team.
Another rumor is that Abdoun has an offer from PAOK, but I don't see that happening. He has been poor at Veroia this season and the owner of Veria and Aris might just demote him to Aris when they get promoted to Football League.

Also I would scrap the Pereyra loan deal to Racing Club, and bring him back to PAOK. He can help offensively.
-
Cimirot is better player than Kace, and is not often injured as you say. He was only injure once in the first game against Xanthi. The problem was that for some weird reason he was not utilized Tudor even though he has been healthy for almost month and a half.
Antonis will miss at least one month so he can play with the Australian U23 NT, so we can forget about him. Sabo should be a sub for Tziolis (or Tziolis should be a sub for Sabo), but for some reason Tudor plays him in every imaginable position.
Speaking of Kace he has been quite disappointing this season. It probably has to do with the apparent contract negotiations. Now that he has fired the agent that also represents Tzandaris, Skondras and Konstantinidis, let's see if the negotiations lead somewhere. As for the Lazio rumors, if I was PAOK I would tell them to bring the 5 mil buyout option and they can have him.
Transfer wise we need one or two CBs, and a good "dekari" to help the offense, since Pelkas's abilities are quite limited.
-
I've heard they also approached ManU, even though we never played them in the past.
-
Do you see it getting better for you in the second half of the season? Our fearless leader believes our guys will finally gel and we might actually get out of this rut. I remain hopeful.
It can't really get any worse. There is a lot of work to be done in order to be ready for the playoffs. Hopefully we get some needed help during the transfer period. I hope at least one player we get can kick a decent corner and free kick. We have been very bad in that department. We also need to keep the injuries to a minimum.
BTW AEK lost today, so we are just 1 point behind 2nd place.
-
I am afraid Konstantinidis's career as a top level professional player are probably over. Every single season at PAOK he has sustained serious injury keeping him from action for months at a time. Too bad as he has talent.

Vitor and Golasa are back in full practice mode, but I doubt they will play on Sunday. With that in mind here is my lineup:
--------------------------- Olsen --------------------------
---------- Tziolis ----- Malezas ---- Tzavellas ------
Konstantinidis - Sabo - Cimirot - Kace - Leovac
------------- Berbatov ------------- Mak ---------------

Just listen to the live coverage of the draw on Sport FM:
-
Not a bad draw. Should qualify with ease.
-
Kalloni it is.
The Round of 16 matchups:
Ergotelis - Panionios
Veroia - Iraklis
Chania - Olympiakos
Larisa - Asteras Tripolis
PAS Giannina - Panathinaikos
Levadeiakos - AEK
Kalloni - PAOK
First leg on January 5-7, 2016 Second leg January 12-14, 2016
Apparently there were some questionable events taking place during the draw in the EPO offices.
-
It's probably because the original signal originates from OTE TV and not Nova as is the case with Superleague games.
-
According to the official EPO document there is no rule preventing this:
SL-R16; Skoda Xanthi - PAOK FC (20-Jan-16, 19:30 GR)
in PAOK FC

If it is rescheduled for January 20, than we face the prospect of playing 7 games in 21 days.
