Original Sydney Posted October 25, 2016 Share Posted October 25, 2016 Tough game and we don't have the best of records up there either. Hopefully today's win gives us a confidence boost. Hopefully we go out there play some football and get the result, even a draw ill take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original 21 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Only Lescott and Vargas are out injured for this game, so we will have an *almost* full strength squad for the first time all year. I would play something like this: Barkas Galo Chygrinski Kolovetsios Didac Simoes Johanson Lazaros Mantalos Patito Almeida Hopefully, with a few more practices Morais can install some more of his tactics into the team. I'm not expecting much out of this game, but for F***s sake, we haven't been competitive in Toumba since the year we lost in the 90th minute, about 7 years ago maybe. We have the quality, now let's try and bring it together slowly and build chemistry. Also, I've chosen Barkas over Anestis because Anestis worries, he still hasn't learned how to judge crosses, and when to come off his line to collect the ball. Barkas played well against Kerkyra and deserves a chance; we did spend close to 1 million euros on his transfer after all. Another possible change to the lineup could be Diaz over Didac, for me, Diaz is better offensively, but Didac is better defensively. In an away derby, I'm going with the more defensive option.

Original Sydney Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Think the line up will be very similar to what you got above Original. Good having Patito back and also Lazaros. Hopefully Morais has the sense to start both Simeos and Johanssen as we have been terrible in the middle since Simeos has been dropped/not played. PAOK has some talent on their wings so going with Didac and Galo would be the better options but Didac again the guy worries me. Last season we lost twice there 2-1 after leading 1-0 so hopefully we have learnt a lesson from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original 21 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Vargas is available for this game after all, he will be a good option off of the bench. Slowly but surely, we are getting back to full strength. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Original Sydney Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Not much has been said on Lescott. Good to see we are nearly at full strength as we will need everyone on board in this period coming up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original 21 Posted October 28, 2016 Share Posted October 28, 2016 Today in practice Morais tested Anestis Galo Chygrinski Kolovetsios Didac Simoes Johanson Mantalos Bakasetas Patito Almeida Apparently, he does not think that Lazaros is 100% ready enough to play a full 90 so soon after Tuesday's game. He tried out Bakasetas in a position that he is more comfortable in rather than being lost on the wings. I think he will contribute a lot more in his natural position behind Almeida. Mantalos on the wing is not something I remember ever seeing for AEK, but with the ethniki, he plays on the wing and does pretty well. The rest of the lineup is pretty logical. I also think having the ability to bring on a player like Lazaros off the bench will make a big difference for us, he can add a spark late in games when PAOKs players get tired.

Dikefale11 Posted October 29, 2016 Author Share Posted October 29, 2016 I like Platellas but he is too hot and cold for me at times, how do you go from being on fire away to Larissa and all of a sudden torpedo vs Panionios and not be able to string basic passes at a professional level. I like that lineup, I think Mandalos will fare better on the wing instead of Mandalos, however I agree if its not working send him straight back to CAM. Good to have Patito back, he has been a big loss, will bring that flare back. Vargas should make an appearance he seems to step up in the big games. Hopefully Almeida lasts a half.

Dava-G Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Unfortunately, I think we will be lucky to get out with a draw. I would love 3 points but I just don't see it feasible Hoping he goes with more Greeks as I'm not sure if the foreigners understand the magnitude of the game or the derby. I also don't think the players coming back this week are in form to start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original 21 Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Platellas didn't even make the apostoli for the game guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nightsurfer Posted October 29, 2016 Share Posted October 29, 2016 Difficult game for us - but I am sure that we will show a better picture than some weeks ago at Karaiskaki. I am optimistic for the future - but today's win of Olympiakos puts the ambitious teams behind on pressure - though a lot of rumours tonight at Peristeri about the referee. But I did not see the disputable referee decisions. @Dava-G Thank you for your answer on the other thread. On which sites (live streams) can this game be watched? Because it won't be shown at Novasports Live. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately they use a security software that saw right past my vpn. Used multiple services. Planned on paying for the service at novasports Instead ad I have to look for a pirated stream for me and my father to watch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHE21QNS Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Mantalo on the right wing, Bakaseta in the middle, and Patito on the left. I can't wait to see how that works out. On paper that line-up (-Lampropoulo of course) looks amazing, lets see how we play. I like where Morai's head is though, and if worst comes to worst Bakaseta and Mandalo will probably alternate throughout the match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dava-G Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 If he plays attacking with our weak defense at toumba, we will eat many goals. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHE21QNS Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 I think he's packing the middle well. Its really going to depend on how well Bakaseta will play in this role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Original 21 Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 I think Galo has passed his prime and we should start to play Bakakis more often, he's had a shocking start to the game and to the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHE21QNS Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Galo has consistently gotten embarrassed by PAOK on the wing. Idk if he's past his prime or if he's just had a rocky start but I agree on Bakaki. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Original 21 Posted October 30, 2016 Share Posted October 30, 2016 Other than Galo, we are doing much better that I thought we would, at least thats what it sounds like on the radio. Labropoulos playing very well in the first 25 minutes or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
