Bananas Posted June 25, 2016 Posted June 25, 2016 The Varela transfer story (saga?) just won't go away. For f--ks sake, if he's really worth 1.5 million just pay the 2 million to settle the matter. At either price, he should be clearly and easily better than any of our current CB's. If he's only slightly better, then he's not the player we want. We don't need depth, we need a true upgrade.
pash Posted June 25, 2016 Posted June 25, 2016 If that rumor of Tzavellas to Israel ends up true, we'll need both depth and upgrades...
Bananas Posted June 25, 2016 Posted June 25, 2016 (edited) I don't buy the Tzavellas rumours. If it was the season with Anastasiadis, yep, I'd believe the rumours as he was poor and there was the trouble with Anastasiadis behind the scenes. But last season he's definitely been our best CB. And he's definitely the most composed on the ball and in his distribution. Add to that he can play LB if required and has a good free kick on him. I'd be amazed if we sold him. Vitor is gone. Malezas is a great backup/rotation option. Chatzi will hopefully have a break out season and show us what he's capable of. He seemed nervous (which is fair enough) last season. Tzavellas is currently our best CB. We haven't signed a top notch CB since Contreras. Edited June 25, 2016 by Bananas
pash Posted June 25, 2016 Posted June 25, 2016 Very frustrating player, but provides much-needed depth. I'd only sell him if we buy a (better) winger to replace him.
Bajewy Posted June 26, 2016 Posted June 26, 2016 New rumor : juan quintero from Colombia. He's out of our price range tho. (transfermarkt has him @ ?7m) http://www.sportdog.gr/sports/podosfairo/article/345203/o-paok-gia-mpam-me-kolombiano-paixtara
Dutch Eagle Posted June 26, 2016 Author Posted June 26, 2016 Miguel Vitor is no longer at PAOK as he was officially presented by Hapoel Beer Sheva.
Pontos Posted June 27, 2016 Posted June 27, 2016 (edited) Reports saying Varela, Crespo and Zozulia are all very close to being confirmed. Edit: for those not familiar with Zozulia, if you watched a Euro game featuring Ukraine, he was the striker with a bad case of premature hair loss, he is 26 years old. Edited June 27, 2016 by Pontos
RED SHERIFF Posted June 27, 2016 Posted June 27, 2016 Ukraine had no decent strikers.....apart from his bad case of hair loss...
pash Posted June 27, 2016 Posted June 27, 2016 Apparently we're getting 236k from our players' involvement in the Euro. Doesn't that make up half of the difference on our purchase of Varela? Pfft just get him already.
pash Posted June 27, 2016 Posted June 27, 2016 Some Romanian site is reporting that Rat will be making a surprise return to PAOK. I doubt that, due to how many fullbacks we now have...I still do like the guy. Great attitude, it was a real poor move to terminate his contract last season.
Blackhawk Posted June 27, 2016 Posted June 27, 2016 Zozulia is punished by Ukraine FA until November 2016 for attacking a ref in a cup game. The punishment will be in effect even if he comes to PAOK according to FIFA rules.
pash Posted June 27, 2016 Posted June 27, 2016 Well, on the plus (and flip) side, it sounds like Pereyra's been a good boy at training so far. I really hope we keep this guy and that I won't see a future post in this thread talking about how we sold him for two gyros and a pack of smokes.
Bajewy Posted June 27, 2016 Posted June 27, 2016 Zozulia is punished by Ukraine FA until November 2016 for attacking a ref in a cup game. The punishment will be in effect even if he comes to PAOK according to FIFA rules. I doubt he'll have any problems with greek refs...
Blackhawk Posted June 28, 2016 Posted June 28, 2016 Crespo is allegedly in Thessaloniki and will probably sign tomorrow if all goes well. Not sure if he is the CB that we were looking for.
paokarag4 Posted June 29, 2016 Posted June 29, 2016 really don't think he has the quality to improve our defence. Hope he proves me wrong, but this looks like another poor-average signing at Center back
Bananas Posted June 29, 2016 Posted June 29, 2016 Another Inigo Lopes ? I really hope not. It's done now, we have to wait and see.
pash Posted June 29, 2016 Posted June 29, 2016 I'm reading that we've bought Gnjatic for 400k from Platanias. More rumors about Tzavellas, this time it's Udinese and apparently Tudor's new team in Turkey.

PAOKSYD Posted June 29, 2016 Posted June 29, 2016 Hes not on radar his at head office. Lets see what happens over next two hours
RED SHERIFF Posted June 29, 2016 Posted June 29, 2016 is he any good? I am losing track of all these signings seems like every other year..lots of names and no substance. 1
