  1. Giakoumakis subbed on and scored in their 4-1 win this weekend. Brings his tally up to 10 goals in 19 games and the fans are loving him
  2. Colak deserves this starting spot
  3. I’d be lying if I didn’t say Cruise control feels nice after all of our must win European games and cup games. We can focus on the final and challenging for the title next year
  4. They decided to go with Williams the United loanie instead of our boy and they lost 2-0. I don’t think he’ll stay on so Giannoulis spot shouldnt be in jeopardy next season as they have a ton of other issues
  5. Third straight clean sheet in the league for our boy. It’s not looking like Benfica will get a champions league spot but like I said he’ll hopefully be moving to a better club regardless
  6. Started but was subbed off in a 1-1 draw against Heracles. Love how many Dutch teams have Greek inspired teams
  7. Scored what looked to be the game winner against Sparta only for them to equalize in extra time. Gives him 13 goals and 5 assists in 30 league matches which is pretty decent.
  8. It seems he’s fit again but didn’t start and was subbed on for Celtic’s 1-1 draw with Rangers. Hopefully it’s about easing him in and he can finish the season in the starting 11
  9. Big game winning goal for Douvikas 1-0 against NEC on Friday. This gives the youngster 8 goals and 3 assists in 31 league games. He’s steadily improving
  10. Exciting stuff, good confidence booster for the guys too. With the money we earned this year, no way our boys can't challenge these bums next year.
  11. Very winnable game. Lets hope the boys can take out their frustrations from Europe on the reds and hopefully win some silverware. This team has had too good of a season by Greek standards to end up empty handed. We were the better team in the first game for most of it, however, as per usual we have no finishing up top. Hoping for Kurtic or Zivkovic strike to take us thru to the finals!
  12. Subbed off in the 90th minute as AZ came back down 1-0 to beat Heerenveen. Didn't score but did some nice things. kinda blew a good fast break opportunity, but another full 90 to his name regardless. Currently fifth and 3 points off third (European Football).
  13. Another loss for Norwich against Newcastle 3-0, which pretty much ends any hope for Premier League survival for the boys. Giannoulis played the full game and Tziolis was subbed on, but I was unable to watch the game, so not sure how well they did. Judging from the score line, prob not too great lol. Championship minutes for Tziolis would be far better than rotting on a bench hopefully this will be a good opportunity for them to play him and keep Giannoulis as a permanent starter.
  14. Started and was subbed off at the 90th minute in a comfortable 2-0 win against Sparta Rotterdam. This is also huge because it ties them on points with third place Feyenoord. I don't know why but according to google the Dutch league only sends 3 teams to Europe. 2 to Champions League and 1 to Europa Conference League.
  15. Not sure if there was an injury issue, or he has just looked great in practice, but Limnios has gone from being a regular sub to starting the last two games. They didn't play this past weekend, but the week before he scored in a 2-0 win against NEC. This brings his goal total to 5 goals in 28 games playing as a winger. Keep in mind most of these appearances are off the bench. Hopefully he becomes a mainstay in the starting 11 and continues to improve. Keep in mind, Twente are 4th currently, so that is an even better look for him.
  16. Nothing too crazy last weekend, but he kept a clean sheet against rivals Sporting as Benfica won 2-0. They are now 3 points back from second place Sporting, which is crucial as the top two teams in the Portuguese league get champions league football. It shouldn't matter too much for our boy tho as he likely wont be there next year, but great performance for him none the less.
  17. Played another full game against United. Despite the team giving up 3 goals to a Ronaldo hattrick, he played pretty well. Won the ball a couple times from United players and play a ball that started the buildup to Norwich's first goal. However, this 2-3 loss to United put what already was a bleak chance at staying up in the prem to an even bigger doubt. While it would be nice to keep him in the Prem, I believe he would be a lock in starter in the championship, as the teams concerns are all over the pitch. It would be great for Tziolis too, who got no playing time even though they were chasing a goal. I wonder if Dean Smith just doesnt like his attitude or what but he is getting wasted sitting on the bench.
  18. I waited till after the game to post so I could digest it and not over react. However, pretty much all my feelings remain. This was a massive missed opportunity. We were insanely unlucky however!!!!!!! CRESPO YOU HAVE MADE ME SO SAD. The wide open unmarked header he had in the first few minutes of the game, followed by his terrible ball after he moved out of position which led to their goal, as well as countless other losses of possession and missed opportunities made me want to literally cry. Ingason, YOUR KEEPER IS SCREAMING AT YOU TO LEAVE THE BALL, two not one but two near own goals thanks to him. Biseswar SO SLOW AND COMPLAINED SO MUCH HE HAS NO SPOT IN THIS TEAM Akpom I DONT CARE HOW "AMAZING" YOUR HOLD UP PLAY WAS, YOU ARE A STRIKER YOUR JOB IS TO SCORE GOALS. The massive missed chance last leg by him as well as the countless misses by him today could have easily decided it for us. Tsiggaras ALL YOU HAD TO DO WAS STICK A FOOT A CALF A KNEE ANYTHING ON THAT BALL AND WE WOULD HAVE A GOAL The poor fans sang and cheered their heart out. FOR WHAT? FOR OUR TEAM TO PLAY SCARED? PLAY LIKE A BUNCH OF TERRIFIED TODDLERS AGAINST ALMOST A MARSEILLE B TEAM?????? THEY WERE PRESSING US WITH EASE WE LOOK LIKE A BUNCH OF SCARED ROOKIES ARE YOU KIDDING ME THIS WAS THE MOST FRUSTRATING WATCH OF MY LIFE
  19. We have as great an opportunity as we could have imagined in terms of making a European Semi Final. That said, this teams back ups are worth much more than our starters. This is not a done deal, and we are down a goal. That being said, it is time to fill TOUMBA UP TO THE BRIM AND MAKE THESE COCKY FRENCHMAN PAY FOR THURSDAY. Yes we have played against the likes of Dortmund and Tottenham in Europe before, and beating Benfica last year in the Champions League Qualifying stages was great too, but I do feel that this second leg is the biggest game in the history of PAOK. Yes, it is quite literally a third rate European competition, but in terms of the funds, coefficient points, opponent, and notoriety that this competition and subsequently our campaign has given us, this is our biggest game to date. The chance to single handidly lift Greek football out of the dark ages is upon us. PAME PAOKARA!!!
  20. Lets put it this way, would you rather miss that goal and have us shock the French and go through this week? Or see the goal and watch the boys fall in Toumba!!!!!
  21. While Benfica did lost 3-1 in the first league of their quarter final Champions league match up against Liverpool, fans of the club have said Vlach was their man of the match. He has been top tier this year, and is linked potentially with Athletico Madrid if Oblak leaves for the prem this summer. Newcastle have also shown interest as they are going to go on a shopping spree this summer with their new owners.
  22. Pavlidis scored again today as AZ lost 2-1. He now has 12 goals in 28 appearances and has scored in his last two games. They are currently 5th in the Eredivisie so hopefully he can keep this form up and finish strong for them.
  23. Another goal for the Greek goal scoring machine as Celtic squashed St. Johnstone 7-0. It could have led to far more goals on the day for Giakoumakis but he seems to have pulled a hammy right after his early goal to go up 2-0. Coach is hopeful it was more of a preemptive subbing but he is in doubt for the big cup semi against rangers. Seems the lad has a hard time staying fit. A shame as he now has 9 goals 1 assist in 16 games, with multiple of those appearances being subbed on performances. The fans are raving about him tho, with some sites of seen calling him Celtic's best player since the start of the new year. Hopefully the injury is nothing to big and he can be back if not for the cup game, at least the next regular season game. He was under fire after remarks a few weeks ago saying that Celtic was going to take the league title prior to a game against the rangers. The remarks were seen as cocky as at that time, as Celtic were only tied with Rangers at the top on points, but since then, they have built a 6 point cushion and goal differential on the rangers, and the fans are liking his attitude.
