need a good result after yesterday's loss hopefully we have 25-30k at Oaka

[Val]

Let's hope ouzo plays bakasetas and mantalos instead of the south americans

[JVC]

Big match, hopefully in front of a big crowd. Will be interesting to see how we bounce back after a poor performance. I believe this match will enlighten the management on where the team stands, in terms of talent going forward....who has potential, and which players are not fit to wear a heavy shirt.

[Reaper]

Going to watch this one.

[JVC]

Very big match for both teams. We're the underdog here playing against a experienced side, with a lot of big games under their belts. Domestic and Europe.

PAME PANATHINAIKARA!

[Val]

57% is good considering aek having more quality. Both sides are pressing and typically both sets of defenders and gk's are booting the ball up field. Just wish we could learn to play out from the back....

Hatzi needs to get into the game a lot more. He was a ghost at toumba as well. Again son donis giving us absolute nothing. He got booked so hopefully he comes off soon.

bouzoukis needs to improve his decision making... maybe we'd be 1 goal up. Mavromatis almost cost us a goal at the other end. Physically strong defender though his marking and poor technique on the ball have been exposed time and time again.

[cocksta]

Bouzou just missed the chance of game


76' need some fresh legs

FT 0-0 should of had the 3 points bravo to the fans who came out we move on to play the gavri next week.

[Reaper]

Boring game this one. Two chronically under funded teams. One owned by the richest man in Greece and the other by an idiot. Thought it could have gone either way but PAO had the clearer chances to win it.

[JVC]

I'll take a draw at this time. Where the kids lack the most is physically strength....learning how to fight against top opponents. For the most part I think we did a better job of that in the second half. That said let's see what they have gained from their experiences competing against PAOK and AEK, and bring it to Kareskaki.

[JVC]

Bouzouki was our best player today.

[Val]

bouzoukis could've won it. just fell on his wrong foot ah well...at least he is showing up for these games. today his passes were on song. Just imagine this kid in these type of games when he has experience.....

katse who came on at least retained some of the ball. Not really a keeper (i think he's still on loan) but much, much better than son donis. Hatzitheororidis i think can also be an option in the middle. Not a lot of size about him but quick and good on the ball.

Dabizas need to really find us some defenders that are better on the ball. Mavromatis almost cost us again on two occassions in the 2nd, not to mention once in the first. Coulibaly as well on an isolated occasion and if it wasn't for mantalos screwing up his dribble, who knows...

This team also seems to lack some IQ which is nothing out of the ordinary for a superliga side. Hatzi lets the ball go out for a corner when he could've controlled it in the box and have fed his teammates also in the box. Bouzoukis chooses to pass to the wrong player, that being macheda who should've aimed to barkas right. Ball drops to Johansson on edge of the box when he can control and enter the box though chooses to volley and skies it. Obviously there's the heat of the moment but there are more i haven't mentioned.

Yea, that was unbelievable. A good coach would make the whole team watch the replay of the game and fix this type of stuff.

How many fans attended today?

I can't tell you how much poor decision making infuriates me but this is something that has been a trait of greek sides for ever. This is why i miss berg. Arguably the smartest attacker to have played here.

+35,000, good to see

Good turnout. I agree about Berg also. All these weird decisions the players make need to be stamped out young. As our league becomes more professional, hopefully this happens.

Hit the nail on the head here, which is why bilbao the 7th , 8th side in spain can come here and score 3 in a few minutes. A greek side needs 10+ chances to score once.

Classic example pao v depor, whereby pao got knocked out 3-5 on aggregate despite being the better side. The professionalism of the Spanish side proved telling.
