EL-GS-R4: PSV Eindhoven - PAOK (26-Nov-20, 22:00 EET)

[pash]

Yeah, our defenders are very easy to break through. Do we put Esiti on for Tsiggaras? Or Augusto in the hopes of an attack?

[Nea Bafra]

Zahavi dropping deep into midfield to get a touch and then pushing forward is giving us issues

[Dutch Eagle]

Damn there is the equalizer.

[Athens4]

Our defending is just awful. Like watching park football.

[Dutch Eagle]

And 3-2 behind. Pffff

[Nea Bafra]

Na to. We invited the pressure and there it is

[Ellada2004]

What crap defending 

[Athens4]

Those black players of theirs are absolute tanks. Why the f**k can’t we buy some of them? 

Shocking defending. All of them just ball watching. They have absolutely taken our wingbacks apart. 

Best case scenario is a draw now.

[Nea Bafra]

Our midfield is non existent

[Ellada2004]

PAOK are hemmed in their own end!

They have tanks in midfield. He really should have brought Esiti on at half time.

Sorry! I haven’t been paying attention to this. Just been tweeting my frustrations since I started a Twitter for the podcast. But here are my thoughts :

We had them on the back foot and yet Garcia chose to sit back for the remaining 80 min to keep a result ? SMALL TEAM MENTALITY. We needed to keep our foot on their throat but instead we gave them an out. Also... wth is with Tsigaris and why is he still in the game. Two out of the three goals were his fault, go watch on film his poor positioning or him not tracking back. Then Garcia takes out Tzolis ? I’m a huge Garcia fan but this is on him 100% if we don’t get a result 

 

Esiti should have been in at half (should have started)

Why is Crespo playing as a wingback?!  The CL games should have been the last time he played in this position.

[Dutch Eagle]

Colak out. Swiderski in.

Tsingaras out. Douglas Augusto in.

[Ellada2004]

Swiderski coming In

[Dutch Eagle]

Douglas Augusto yellow and now suspended for the away game against Omonioa.

[PaokCT]

Right there is why Tsingaras was at fault for the 2 goals. Crespo got beat and Augusto filled in to clear the ball. Tsingaras wasn’t in the right spot to help out the CB’s when he was in

[Dutch Eagle]

Last subs. Wagué and Biseswar in for El Kaddouri and Crespo.

[PaokCT]

Awful FK by Schwab

[PaokCT]

Garcia’s decisions cost us this game. I still think he’s a good coach, but just had a bad game 

[Ellada2004]

Terrible way to lose this match

I agree. I especially blame those PAOK_Talk people for thinking it's a good idea. He should never play that position when we have three right backs who have also played on the left.

HAHA real funny ....

[Athens4]

1) Why is Crespo playing wingback?

2) Why didn't Esiti come on (at least when it was 2-2)?

3) Why is Biseswar still playing for us?

4) Why is he starting Tsiggaras in this type of game where the opposition midfield is made up of African beasts?

I cannot see us making us out of the group now. We need Granada to do us a huge favour and I can't see that happening with PSV back to full strength. In fact, I cannot even see us beating Omonia next week. The players should be fined a week's wages after today, that was an absolute disgrace.

[Blackhawk]

We lost the game because we did not play with a proper LB.

Also you get lucky and go up 2:0 you should put in Esiti.

Unless PSV self destructs I think our European campaign is over.
