Mitsos Posted December 8, 2016 Share Posted December 8, 2016 Congrats to PAOK on advancing! This has been quite the roller coaster season for you fans and it's not even half way over yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pash Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 There are plenty of teams here we can beat. Just have to cross our fingers, I guess. My choices: Preferred: Copenhagen/APOEL/Osmanlispor/Genk/Sparta Prague Can possibly swing it: Tottenham/Lyon/Besiktas/Ajax Death - the rest of them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bananas Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 I think Tottenham would bash us. This is not the Tottenham of 5 years ago, plus they would throw in their full team. I watched them dismantle CSKA Moscow (with Natcho in the middle) the other night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paokarag4 Posted December 9, 2016 Share Posted December 9, 2016 gonna be tough whoever we get. If we can keep a clean sheet at home in the first leg, we are on. We are a huge threat on the counter, with Rodrigues, Djalma and matos/Leovac overlapping. Most of our eliminations in knockout football over the last 5-6 years has come because of poor results at home. Away we go and perform, defend well, hard and counter with intent. Then s%$#! the bed in toumba (see ajax both times, CSKA, Udinese and as we know our last 2 europa league group stage eliminations have come from not being able to get points at home) So happy that we are playing knockout football in Europe again. Can't wait for the games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackhawk Posted December 9, 2016 Author Share Posted December 9, 2016 Just a note that the ranking points the Eagle posted are for draw purposes for next season and are not final. For current season and the draw for the Round of 16 (if we qualify), the final ranking points from last season are taken into account. For example PAOK has 37.440 points and we are ranked number 18 from all the 32 teams in the Europa League Round of 32: Schalke 04 GER 96.035 Zenit St. Peterspburg RUS 93.216 Manchester United ENG 82.256 Shakhtar Donetsk UKR 81.976 Athletic Bilbao ESP 75.142 Tottenham Hotspur ENG 74.256 Olympiakos Piraeus GRE 70.940 Olympique Lyon FRA 63.049 Villareal ESP 60.142 Ajax Amsterdam HOL 58.112 AFC Fiorentina ITA 57.087 Anderlecht Brussels BEL 54.000 AZ Alkmaar HOL 43.612 Borussia Monchengladbach GER 42.035 AS Roma ITA 41.587 Fenerbahce Istanbul TUR 40.920 Sparta Prague CZE 40.585 PAOK Thessaloniki GRE 37.440 KRC Genk BEL 36.000 APOEL Nicosia CYP 35.935 Besiktas Istanbul TUR 34.920 Legia Warsaw POL 28.000 AS St. Etienne FRA 26.049 Ludogorets Razgrad BUL 25.625 KAA Gent BEL 25.000 FC Copenhagen DEN 24.720 FC Krasnodar RUS 24.216 Celta Vigo ESP 21.142 FC Rostov RUS 11.716 Astra Giurgiu ROM 11.076 Osmanlispor Ankara TUR 6.920 Hapoel Beer Sheva ISR 4.725 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paokarag4 Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Just having a quick look at there squad and (on paper at least) they don't look any better than what they were when we played them 3 years ago. The question is, are we a better team? probably yes, hard to say. Clean sheet in the first leg at home and we'll be in with a fighting chance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
