Here are the call ups:

Ρέι, Σιαμπάνης, Δεληγιαννίδης, Πούγγουρας, Μαλεζάς, Βαρέλα, Κρέσπο, Μαουρίσιο, Σάκχοφ, Τσίμιροτ, Πέλκας, Μπίσεσβαρ, Μυστακίδης, Λημνιός, Μακ, Κουλούρης, Πρίγιοβιτς, Λύρατζης

 

Here's my lineup:

                                 --Rey--

--Deligiannidis--Poungouras--Malezas--Crespo--

                    --Shakhov--Cimirot--

            --Limnios--Mistakidis----Mak--

                          --Koulouris--

 

Liratzis is a central defender, he might see some time.

[Blackhawk]

Lyratzis is a RB according to the U20 roster. I would hope he will get a start giving Matos some rest. I would hope Lucescu takes some risks and sits out most of the starters.

  

[pash]

If Deligiannidis says he feels he should be playing right back (regardless of the fact that he's clearly a winger), then there's no reason to have him sit out over this guy. He's the one who badly needs game time, after all.

Regardless, I hope Lucescu does put out a very different lineup. I think it would be interesting to see Mistakidis and Mak playing as joint strikers, for example - maybe in a 3-5-2 or 4-4-2. Let's get WEIRD, Razvan.

[Blackhawk]

Deligiannidis was never a LB or RB. He was an attacking midfielder when he came to the senior squad. I would play Lyratzis as RB and Deligiannidis as LB in tomorrow's game.

Razvan really is a wild card:

 

 

[paokarag4]

interesting that prijovic is starting again, wonder if that's to try keep his scoring form up or if he's planning to start Kolouri on the weekend against Kerykyra. 

Games about to start, why the hell are we wearing our blue kit at home?

[pash]

Perhaps they bought too many for the store and need to drum up interest?

[Blackhawk]

I am surprised about Prijovic myself. I just hope that does not mean Koulouris starts on Sunday. Interesting to see Pouggouras as RB too.

[Dutch Eagle]

And Mysta back on the bench!!

[Blackhawk]

Mysta is probably not ready to play a full 90 minute game yet. I am sure we'll see him in the 2nd half.

[Blackhawk]

0:0 halftime. Appears to be a nice training session for the team.
 

[pash]

As meaningless as this game is, I'd like to see goals.

My first sub would be to put that RB on for Crespo, and move Poungouras central. Second would be Mistakidis for Limnios.

[pash]

Mistakidis on for Crespo

[paokarag4]

looks liminos has dropped into right back with pouggo going central next to maleza

[pash]

Koulouris on for Mak

[pash]

Shakhov nearly with a Pelkas-doppelganger goal

[Blackhawk]

Good try by our top scorer in the cup, Shakhov.

[paokarag4]

nice header from prijo, great save from the Trikala keeper
