PAOKSYD Posted July 15, 2016 Posted July 15, 2016 I will be at the game in toumba so F***en physched!! Cmon paokara 2
pash Posted July 15, 2016 Posted July 15, 2016 Do we know when exactly the first leg will be played? Seems if I avoid a weekend flight, a trip out of Boston isn't as insanely expensive as I thought.
Bananas Posted July 15, 2016 Posted July 15, 2016 All things considered not a bad draw. I'd like to get some revenge for the 4-4 from some years back. Blackhawk the walking encyclopedia, I'm sure, will dig up what year it was. If I was a betting man I'd say 40% chance of progressing. Sound reasonable ? This is not the AJAX power house of old. They also don't have a young Suarez although these days I don't really know their squad. Dutch Eagle, what do you think ? What is their squad like ? What are our (realistic) chances ? Could you increase them by maybe sabotaging their dinner ? Come on, your team needs you !!!!
pash Posted July 15, 2016 Posted July 15, 2016 The match was 6 years ago I'll withhold judgement on our chances until we play this next friendly. Although I have a feeling Twente is going to be a much easier match than the Steaua one.
Antaeus7 Posted July 15, 2016 Posted July 15, 2016 I don't know much about this Ajax club. It's possible PAOK can advance.
PAOKSYD Posted July 15, 2016 Posted July 15, 2016 There squad is worth double ours. There trophies 6 times ours. There champions league history is amazing compared to our zero. There stadium hilds double ours. Their tourism is 5 times ours. Their wages 3 times our amsterdam v salonica. It really is david versues goliath in very aspect. But F*** we are PAOK we honeslty can do this but odds are against us
Ethnikos Posted July 15, 2016 Posted July 15, 2016 Those stats don't matter^, when was the last time they won the champions league? I've seen Ajax play their nowhere near the team they should be - like Celtic. I think PAOK can take them out 1
Dutch Eagle Posted July 15, 2016 Posted July 15, 2016 PAOK has a chance, just like in 2010. I think ELLAS75 is right with the 50%/50%. 020 as I prefer to call our next opponents had a lot of players with WC experience just after being runner-up in South-Africa. Now only Milik played EURO 2016. But some kind of way they are tough to beat. PSV Eindhoven had a much stronger squad last year but managed only to beat them for the title in the last match as 020 drew with a team that relegated right after that in the play-outs. It's like Cruyff said about Italians: They can't beat you but you can lose against them. But we would do about 15 million Dutch a favor if we beat them. 1
Blackhawk Posted July 15, 2016 Author Posted July 15, 2016 Decent draw. We can progress. Their best player Milik might not even play in the first game. The only thing that worries me is that we never eliminated a Dutch team from any European competition. 1
Dutch Eagle Posted July 15, 2016 Posted July 15, 2016 Traditions are to be broken. Germany never beat Italy before on a major tournament. In Euro 2016 they did. etc. Now it's time to beat a Dutch side for the first time.
Bajewy Posted July 15, 2016 Posted July 15, 2016 Well, now I'm glad we didn't get drawn with a turkish team... 1
Antaeus7 Posted July 21, 2016 Posted July 21, 2016 (edited) So, PAOK will be playing on Wednesday and not the usual Thursdays which UEFA Europa League matches are played. Good, I can watch this one on my phone while at work. :D Edited July 21, 2016 by Molon Lave
pash Posted July 21, 2016 Posted July 21, 2016 First match is on Tuesday actually. But hopefully we can accommodate after qualifying ;)
pash Posted July 22, 2016 Posted July 22, 2016 Well this is really surprising...Pereyra didn't make the 24-man team vs Ajax. I know this isn't the final list for group stages, but hopefully he doesn't find himself on the *real* cutting block. Vellidis and Chatziisaias also didn't make it (less surprising). 1
pash Posted July 22, 2016 Posted July 22, 2016 Good point. This might indicate that his sell is coming soon. Last I heard, the offers weren't as hot as last year, which has caused a delay.
Blackhawk Posted July 22, 2016 Author Posted July 22, 2016 Kace was left off probably because he is not ready. He only joined the team practices 3 days ago. He might be on the way out, but I don't think there are any takers. I think he shot himself in the foot, when he refused to re-negotiate his contract last year demanding a lot more money that PAOK was offering, and with his manager planting false news stories that all these Italian teams were after him.

pash Posted July 23, 2016 Posted July 23, 2016 No, he shouldn't have. Stupid mistakes by teenagers are just a fact of life. It was handled appropriately.
paok4athens Posted July 25, 2016 Posted July 25, 2016 PAOK can do it PAOK can do anything - this is the magic with our team ! B)
