Transfer News And Rumors - Summer 2015

[BostonThanatos]

I thinks it's for the rest of the competition

[Bananas]

Only PAOK could make the biggest signing of the summer (if it's true) and have him NOT available for European play.....  It's like being invited to an orgy and only being allowed to F*** the fat girls.

 

We're a bunch of stooges.  Maybe Savvidis thinks he can win the league now ...

Was the deadline for all group stage games, or just the next one?

I think In January, teams are able to make a couple of changes, so he can only play if we make it out of the group stage, we can register him.

[BostonThanatos]

Maybe he can teach Mak how to actually get the ball into the net..... "Mak....Net Good! Goalies Arms BAD!" 

 

If we make the group of 32 we can add 3 more players:

This makes sense, I remember the only reason we couldn't use natcho was because he was cup tied

[Bananas]

Well, we needed a striker, and we got a damn good one ... in theory.  Still, it would have been nice if we could have used him in Europe during the Group Stage.

[BostonThanatos]

I think Klaus can get us to the 32.  I think we've been playing pretty well, and with a proper striker both the Xanthi and PAS games would have been ours.  We need to get Olsen to smarten the F*** up, or get Glykos in there.

^^The objective is to win the championship, will take PAOK to the next level, so not a big deal if he's not eligible for Europe....Good catch and good luck....Play the over when PAO and PAOK match up!

 

Yes ... and no.  Yes the objective is win the championship, but you can't do it by taking short cuts.  You need to build a TEAM, with a CORE group of players.  Then when you add a Berbatov or a Natcho it all just clicks into gear and the extra class of these players gets you over the line.  At least Berbatov will sell a lot of jerseys.

And that is encouraging.  The "team" needs to just keep playing better each week.  The PAS game was really a case of everything went wrong on the day.  A quality CB and GK and a Klaus in form and all of sudden you've won 3-0.  What I want more than anything this season is for the young players plus the new transfers to improve and become good solid squad players, and build from there.

@OlympicHellas, transfer talks fell with Aston Villa.

[BostonThanatos]

When he plays in Karaiskaki and they chant "Bou-Bou-Boulgaroi!" He's gonna think they're cheering for him...

[Ethnikos]

^^^hahaha ????

[Original Sydney]

Brilliant signing by PAOK congrats as an AEK fan I am dirty our management didn't go for him.

 

Biggest signing of the League.

 

Hope he has a great season!!!

[pash]

So what I see as our "best" 11 so far...

 

 

                  --Glykos--

        --Vitor--Costa--Malezas--

    --Kitsiou--Cimirot--Kace--Mak--

                    --Pelkas--

            --Berbatov--Klaus--

 

 

Berbatov is in good shape, esp for his age, but he is slow. Klaus will have to do most of the running up front. Helps that the rest of the squad has a combined age of 15. More importantly, we have significant depth across the midfield - Kitsiou/Konstantinidis/Skondras/Rodrigues on the right, Mak/Leovac/Korovesis/Jairo on the left, Pelkas/Mistakidis/Sabo/Charisis/Savvidis in an attacking midfield role. There's some real potential there.

 

I wonder if any half-decent CBs are still available as free agents?

[pash]

Dude this is a nice pick up! He is lazy at times but he will rock it in this league. So in this league we have Berbatov, Cambiasso, and Essien. The GSL aint that bad now that i think about it!

 

If only the three of them didn't each look like this:

 

[PAOmelbourne]

Klaus and berbatov will be a killer strike force

Both good finishers

[BostonThanatos]

I hope so...

[Tahma]

For the group stage, yes I'm pretty sure.

[BostonThanatos]

He'll be eligible to to be added to the list if we make it to the Group of 32.

[Blackhawk]

Biggest transfer of the season imo

 

I would venture to say that his signing is one of the biggest ones in Greek soccer history. It's definitively up there with Rivaldo, etc.

as long as he plays the full season. if he plays 9 games and scores 3 goals not so much

[Dutch Eagle]

Qabala and PAOK agreed that Pereyra will not play against us.

 

Don't know about these rules in Europe. In England it is very common and allowed to do so. In the Netherlands it is not allowed. 

[paokarag4]

It comes down to the contract, if a clause is put in there that the player can't play against there parent club then obviously it happens. Good move by us putting that in there, as I recall a few years ago players who we had loaned out to other Greek teams playing against us. 

As for the Berbatov signing, I dont believe what I'm reading!! HUGE signing, if he plays at 75% he will dominate the superleauge. Wanna wait till its official to get too excited but this is big! Apparently PAOK is waiting to hear from Uefa if he can play in the Europa league, they are hopeful an exception will be made given the De Gea situation 

[PAOKARA]

Apparently Berbatov has been cleared to play in the Europa League! 

 

Edit-

 

Well its official.

 

PAOK confirm Berbatov:
