Blackhawk Posted April 3, 2018 Author Share Posted April 3, 2018 Some rumors: - according to George Savvidis we already signed one player. Everybody thinks it's Hatseridi from Dynamo Kiyv, but that's just an assumption. - we will make a move for K. Papadopoulos, but can we afford him. - Valencia is coming to Thessaloniki this week to close a deal for Warda - Napoli scouters have apparently been checking out PAOK players. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackhawk Posted April 4, 2018 Author Share Posted April 4, 2018 Apparently we are willing to pay the 900K buyout option in order to acquire Pedro Conte from PAS Giannina. H e has scored 18 goals this season for PAS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yiankos Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 Sounds like a foreign Ilias Anastasakos. At least the Greek guy we got him for nothing if I remember correctly. Pay 900k for someone who never played in a big team or first division besides Pas Giannena? And of course 30 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There has been a lot of fuss over him. I'll be happy if he's at the same level that Varela has been this season. - KP very little chance. He's on 2.5 million now at his current club. If he does come to us it means he couldn't get a better offer elsewhere, which is fair enough. - Warda is a tricky one. Anything over say 2 million would be good business. But his form has been very good this season. Then again we have an abundance of wingers and there is still Henrique to return also, although there have been media stories about Qarabag wanting to buy him. - Assuming the Napoli story has any truth to it, the only player I would imagine they could be interested in is Pelkas. They are a very high level team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get what you're saying, but the "ready made" players cost much more and even then they are a risk. There are no guarantees unfortunately. At least this is lower risk. There are plenty of players in the GSL that have played for lower level teams and then they shine when given the chance in a bigger team. And then are plenty that failed too (I'm looking at you Koutsianikoulis). End of the day if he's better than Koulouris then I'm all right with that. The quality difference between Prijovic and Koulouris is immense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athens4 Posted April 5, 2018 Share Posted April 5, 2018 I would like to give Warda another chance. I think if he also plays in the World Cup we can sell him next year for even more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The quality difference between Prijovic and Koulouris is immense. I totally agree with that. My other point that I didn't express clearly is that we have to buy expensive and pay more than the actual value because we are a small team. If Savvidis is OK to put always more money to get the results that his opponents can have with way less, I am fine. My only worry is if he decides to stop paying that much money. And to give you an example. Olympiakos purchased Ansarifard for 400K. Let's say Pedro Konde and Ansarifard have a similar mediocre career so far. Conde way more goals in lower divisions, but Ansarifard plenty of national experience with Iran. But Ansarifard was 27 and we will get Konde 30. We will pay 900k and Olympiakos paid 400k. You see my point? Of course, we have to get such players. This year we are lucky that Prijovic had no injuries. If something would happen to him we have only Koulouris and then Mak who probably would have to go center forward. So, I definitely agree that we need a reliable and good back up besides Prijovic. I don't know Conde, never seen him, so I hope he will prove to be good enough for what we need him! If we purchase Kiriakos Papadopoulos and Savvidis gives good money to get a huge midfielder that would be really good news for next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blackhawk Posted April 5, 2018 Author Share Posted April 5, 2018 I think we need to acquire one top player for each line. One CB, one DM and one forward. I don't think KPap will come. Way too much money and I don't even think he worth it.Look for him at PAOK when gets over 30 years of age. Hatcheridi is another unknown with a big salary. Only seen him play against AEK and he was mediocre at best. As for the forward I am pretty sure Prijovic will be sold, so we will need a top class forward. Of course Conte is not such a player, but few PAS games that I have seen this season showed me that he could be a good backup. Comparing him to Koulouris is like night or day. Not worth the 900K, but I am not the one with Ivan's walllet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackhawk Posted April 5, 2018 Author Share Posted April 5, 2018 Well he's definitively not worth the 6.5 mil the Germans are asking for him. Salary wise he might drop his price since he would come to his team, but I don't see that happening until he reaches at least 30 years of age.

Yiankos Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 I don't know how well he is doing in the Bundesliga this year. If he is doing horribly and his team relegates and his choice is a mediocre team of Germany that will fight not to relegate, I can see him coming to PAOK to revive his career, play a couple years and at 28 to hit his best transfer.

paokarag4 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Would be a huge signing if it some how came to be, but hard to see it happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
italosPAOK4 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 we need 3-4 great players 1 for every line, a CB to play together with Varela, a DM instead of Canas, a CF if Prijovic gets sold, and a better player than El Kaddouri Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yiankos Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 At least so far we are kind of supporting our players and we are not looking for a get-rid-of-15 and get-15 summer. If Savvidis wants to continue grow the team, Crespo and Canas (my favorites I know) have no place here. Tricky business are Biseswar, Mak, El Kaddouri. Those three players with big salaries that did not really give what they should have given. For different reasons each of them, but decisions have to be made for them as well. Not sure who is going to take those decisions though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Athens4 Posted April 10, 2018 Share Posted April 10, 2018 I think Biseswar has a place on the team. Unless of course there is an offer for him. Mak is not a hard decision as he is on loan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yiankos Posted April 11, 2018 Share Posted April 11, 2018 I agree about Biseswar, but if they do not intend to use him there is no point to stay. If they can sell him it will be good for everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only good thing about Donald is that he provides us with endless comedy relief. Much better than George W. He will be dearly missed after 2020 (if not sooner).
