There is a pattern in every team that Terim takes over. They adopt an increasingly more offensive football style, resulting to more goals. Until the bookmakers realise that, I see value in every over 2.5 goals for PAO.

Other than that, I feel pity for Jovanovic’s ousting. I hope he ends up in Pas Giannina, a team that I m sure he will be loved and respected as a God. Mark my words.

I actually like Jovanović's tactics in non-super-grand teams (like APOEL) where he works extremely cautiously in the defensive department.
So I welcome your opinion. Also, I'll accept your words about Terim's model (before the collapse comes, due to underestimation of the defensive department and the peculiarities of his dominant character and the lack of flexibility in changing tactics when it is not too late).
Let's see what happens.

I wanted to update you on something that I believe it will prove to be important. Today, the Greek Social Media sphere started talking about Terim's links with what they call in Turkey ''Grey Wolves'' or something like that. Already, influential PAO websites and profiles are speaking about a boycott until Terim goes.

- I wonder why exactly the Greens are insisting on extending Brignoli's expensive contract. Neither in Serie A nor in Athens did he consistently show exceptionally high quality. Lodygin seems like a temporary solution. So, the possible hidden bomb in the defensive dept is ticking, keeping in mind the offensive style of the new coach.
- The actual sporting form of the new defender coming from Fenerbahçe is unknown for now. I think securing a new top-notch goalkeeper for a long-time horizon should be the top priority now.
- Terim has yet to display the extremely offensive style he is known for in Serie A and Süper Lig. He seems to be slightly cautious or he simply hesitates between some options.
- Willian seems to me fully adapted to the new tactical scheme, I guess he'll secure the new team core, perhaps a-la Rui Costa style.
- Neither Jovanović in the past, nor Terim in the present have built the most dangerous attacking team possible with a high priority for consistent high-quality passes for Ioannidis, having much better-goal-scoring potential than he appears. On the other hand, Ioannidis as a full-of-energy young player himself needs to work on improving his positioning on the pitch in every attack.
- I can't estimate Limnios' transfer at the moment.

Panaitolikos vs Olympiakos now,
I am surprised by the goal through the left flank of the Olympiakos defense, but even though Podence and Iborra are under the lights, my opinion is related to El Kaabi (in terms of goals or assists). Reflected by the Model.

The Spanish coaches (with the exception of Guardiola, Unai Emery & Juande Ramos ) are known for unnecessarily complicating their tactical tasks.
So after El Kaabi's goal, I decided to protect the positions on some markets by hedging.

Panathinaikos vs Aris Thessaloniki now,
I don't know why, but Terim's approach is different at PAO and not exactly the same as at Galatasaray over the years.
I saw the way PAO's defensive department dealt with Aris attacks around the 60th minute (behind Dragowski on the right where the "Gate 13 1966" flags are).
However, I don't want to attack the market "Over X.Y goals" in the long term (as it was in Galatasaray), but at the same time, unlike December and maybe January, there are some signals on the pitch when the AH lines of (- Y.Z goals) will be broken, and I don't mean today.

What an unexpected opportunity in the Asian Handicap markets!
UEFA Youth League, Bayern München vs Olympiakos Piraeus now 1:3, circa 30 minutes till the end!
Under 5% chance of 0:3 at half time according to some calculations, but there is a very good chance of a profitable hedge or future percentage attack according to the risk accepted by your Model.

Aris, who are competing for nothing, lead AEK Athens after the first half.
So considering Olympiakos VS PAOK Thessaloniki at the same time, there is a possibility that a slightly different SuperLeague1 Matrix will be built from now on (after that 0:5 Lamia vs PAO). However, PAOK has a 1 game lesser so far and this fact should be included in the Model.
Let's see what happens tonight.
Expect the unexpected in my opinion…
