I wouldn't worry too much about highlights videos and what fans are saying. The majority wouldn't have seen him play and highlights can be deceiving, Colak looked real good in his highlights. If he can put the ball in the net we are happy, that's what we need a scorer. Prijo came from a similar level league (probably worse) at a similar age and physically is similar, I wasn't thrilled when he signed back in 2017 but we know how that turned out. The pleasing thing is that the club appears to be moving fast to cover one of our trouble positions. Traditionally we've been slow in moving in the market.

@Athens4 100% correct, he's all about maximising views, clicks and listenership. When he is analysing football he is actually not bad but that is so rare as he's usually trying to stir Aris or PAOK fans. Not much pure football analysis that comes out of Greece, the most popular journalists seem to be ones who sprout bull.

He likes to stir things up for most teams, if you hear the things he says about Karapapas you wouldn't think he's on the payroll. Given he's based in Thessaloniki, PAOK takes up a lot of air-time so he probably speaks about PAOK more than any other team.

It seems the Warda links were anything but fake, he is on his way back..... Tragic, even if he comes good it's just poor management to keep bringing someone back who has burnt us so many times in the past. By the same token he has never been given a full season at PAOK, again poor management. We are also apparently very close to signing his Volos teammate Douvikas and loaning him straight back to them for the rest of the season. While the search for a starting striker goes on.

I really hope it's fake news, if we bring Warda back I'll ??

Pash been sleeping on this topic we've been linked with plenty of players! I've heard rumours coming out of Tripoli that we've agreed a fee for Kotsiras, the Asteras right back. Yet to see it reported by a reputable source though. Also apparently we are interested in Douvikas from Volos, who has been a stand-out so far this season. He's 21 and has 5 goals and 2 assists so far this season. Douvikas link

Didn't work for me either, really frustrating. Avoided the result so I could watch a replay, had to settle for highlights. Important win, keeps us in touch with the top of the table. Must win our first 3 games of the New Year (Larissa, Atromitos and Volos) before we play our game in hand against Olympiacos.

Lykogiannis scored a nice goal from a free kick overnight. He played the full 90 in Cagliari's 1-1 draw against Udinese You can see the goal at 38 seconds in

He's in the squad?

We will never know the truth, Olympiacos and Aris will maintain PAOK is the cause of all evil in the world (I heard Savvidis is behind COVID) and we will of course deny any wrong doing and point the finger back at them. No one in Greece much less Greek football is clean, I agree with Blackhawk I think in the end Siampanis maybe chewed up and spat out. In terms of what happens between the clubs is anyone's guess, there will be punishments teams will appeal and on goes the circus that is Greek football.

Well said and I agree with almost everything @Bananas Good to see you posting file, don't take such a long holiday between posts again!

Shame, very unlikely we see him play for PAOK again. In what may well be his last act for the club will be one that will go down in Toumba folklore, it's just unfortunate that his brave effort ended up being on a losing team. Speedy recovery Moussa.

Oh wow did Aris win the league? these scenes are reminiscent of a team that have been crowned Champions of Europe

400 crosses not one to a team-mate we don't deserve even a point from this trash displlay

LOL the commentator just said Crespo looks like Nicholas Cage, either I'm delusional from a lack of sleep or that is ridiculous

He was fouled earlier I thought, the one the ref gave wasn't a pen. Surely he has to review that too?

Hard for them to be booked when our players are the ones committing stupid fouls You got your wish Silva is booked

Garcia you're going to cost us this game 30 mins before full-time TAKE AUGUSTO OFF!!!!! It's a miracle he's still on the pitch gamw to spiti mou

While I don't think it's a pen, I really hate when still photos are used to make the case, it's very easy to manipulate and make something look better or worse than what it actually is.

lmao 5 seconds in Augusto fouls again, get him off the pitch ffs

Scored both goals for Alanyaspor in their 2-1 victory over Besiktas, the win keeps them top of the table. Tzavellas and Siopis also starting and playing the whole game (Siopis was subbed out in the 98th min)

I too thought Paschalakis got the ball first, I'm surprised the ref wasn't at least sent over to have a second look at it. Augusto is lucky to still be on the pitch, flying into tackles he's not playing smart at all. But for a lack of options I think Garcia would sub him off at HT but we have limited options.

Kyriakopoulos started his first match for Sassuolo since the international break, they beat Benevento 1-0 and moved up to 2nd place in the table. Kyriakopoulos played 83 mins before being subbed out (not sure if it was injury related or not) Sassuolo could slide down to 5th after the full weekend of matches are played, but still impressive that they've had a such a great start to the season.

He was subbed off injured at the hour mark. Also our mate Kosta uploaded something interesting to social media which is getting some attention in the media in the UK https://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/sport/football/liverpool-tsimikas-instagram-champions-league-19417049
