[PaokCT]

Hearing rumors of postponement so we could focus on conf league?

[Blackhawk]

Not possible. The deadline to do that has passed.

[Dutch Eagle]

Angelos Evangelou is appoited as ref for this match. 

[Blackhawk]

I would not start Kenny, Zafeiris, Baba and Taison in this game. We need to go with fresh legs into the second game with Brann. Also some players that just joined the team recently (Louchet, Ndiaye)  need to start in order to gel with the team.

[PAOKSYD]

Taison is done & Mythou is for PAOK B

[PaokCT]

Yea I agree. If Taison plays against Brann we are toast. If Ali is healthy play him next week. For Sunday I’d go 

 

Taison.               Ndiye.                Zivkovic

                           Pelkas

                Louchet             Camara

 

Gomez       Michialidis     Artiz.         Taylor

[Dutch Eagle]

Camara is left out of the squad in order to be fresh on Thursday. 

Squad for this match:

Παβλένκα, Τσιφτσής, Μοναστηρλής, Κένι, Ελουστόντο, Χατζηδιάκος, Μιχαηλίδης, Μπαταούλας, Γιαννούλης, Μπάμπα, Γκόμεζ, Τέιλορ, Θυμιάνης, Σανταμαρία, Ζαφείρης, Λουσέ, Πέλκας, Τάισον, Σορετίρε, Ζίβκοβιτς, Χατσίδης, Ντιαγέ, Μύθου.

[pash]

Ali not making the list for this game makes me doubt we'll see him on Thursday. Hopefully I'm wrong there.

[Dutch Eagle]

Starting today:

Pavlenka, Baba, Michailidis, Elustondo, Kenny, Taylor, Louchet, Zivkovic, Shoretire, Pelkas and Ndiaye.

[PaokCT]

Not a great start. A lot of turnovers, but that’s expected with a lineup this turned over

[PaokCT]

Louchet, Pelkas, Shoretire, Taylor all non existent. 

[Blackhawk]

We are controlling the game, but are completely harmless on offense.

[PaokCT]

At the water break : 0-0

Zero creativity, zero off the ball movement. The CM pair of Louchet / Taylor is horrific. 

[Blackhawk]

Shoretire goal

[Dutch Eagle]

GGGGOOOAAAALLL Shoretire. A beauty too.

[pash]

My boy! My beautiful boy!!!!!

[PaokCT]

Good goal! Big to get before HT too

[Dutch Eagle]

Pelkinho 2-0. Nice goal too.

[Blackhawk]

Pelkas 2:0

[pash]

My god το κάρφωσε as they say

[PaokCT]

And he goes to hug Lisci right away

[pash]

Only because I'm not there to hug him

[PaokCT]

Now I see why Ndiye was given to us on loan. 

[PaokCT]

Wonder if Balde will get minutes
