[Nea Bafra]

blackhawk, shouldn't you rename this PAOK B v PAOK A?

[Dutch Eagle]

Hahahaha, was thinking the same, Bafra!

[Dutch Eagle]

We play the game against our B-squad with these players:

Πασχαλάκης, Ζίβκοβιτς, Μάτος, Ροντρίγκο, Βαρέλα, Ίνγκασον, Γιαννούλης, Βιεϊρίνια, Εσίτι, Ντούγκλας, Μαουρίσιο, Μίσιτς, Ελ Καντουρί, Μπίσεσβαρ, Λάμπρου, Λημνιός, Σφιντέρσκι, Άκπομ.

Pelkas has some problems with his stomach and is left out of the squad.

[pash]

Very different lineup. Happy Lamprou is starting but wtf is going on with RB

 

 

[Blackhawk]

Is he playng Lambrou as "dekari"?

As for RB, I am afraid as long as Matos does not sign a contract extension he will not see much action.

And here I was sitting on their other stream wondering when Morgan Freeman would stop talking

[pash]

Wow great goal by Akpom, set up by El Kaddouri

[Blackhawk]

Nice goal

[Dutch Eagle]

Great goal. And thanks for reminding me of ert!

[Blackhawk]

Poor defense

[PaokCT]

Horrific defensive display too. When I’m danger we are just kicking it out for a throw in, not even trying to hit it off them or up the field. We are rushing everything too, Lamprou has about 5 turnovers. Vierinha has already whiffed and missed the ball twice. Paschalakis looks stupid with his dumb hair.

[Blackhawk]

Xanthi is just better after we scored showing that they want it more.

Just now, Blackhawk said:

What’s new. I feel like every game lately , our opponent plays harder, tougher, quicker.

[Blackhawk]

And now Varela seems to be injured

[pash]

Of course Varela gets hurt on a day where we inexplicably don't bring a third CB

[Blackhawk]

Matos in for Varela

[Blackhawk]

Pathetic

[Blackhawk]

We are not winning this game.

[pash]

VAR check for possible Xanthi handball in the box

[pash]

So much for that.

[Blackhawk]

This coach is clueless about the game as it is played on Greece.

We are in danger of losing the second place as well. My prediction is that we will.

[Blackhawk]

How stupid can the technical staff be? We had two players on the verge of getting game bans if they got yellow cards (Augusto, Ingason). Well guess what? They both got yellows and in the play-offs Ingason will miss one game and Augusto 2 games. The worst thing is that the cards accumulated in the regular season get erased going into the playoffs.

We will have serious issues on defense in the first playoff game. No Ingason or Crespo and possibly even Varela. And our two other CBs (Mihaj, Michailidis) have not played a single game yet.

[bluevertigo]

Abel, Abel....is it possible to get worse?!
