"They have more than one," Farioli responded when asked what potential dangers Panathinaikos have for Ajax.
"We are playing against one of the biggest and most historic clubs in Greece. They have a coach with international experience: last season in Sevilla, before that as national coach and since then a few months in Greece. Under him, Panathinaikos plays in a structured but also varied way. They have some interesting attacking set-ups: for instance, they sometimes drop players with quality to create the ball supply and attack with many players high up the pitch. We will really have to get going."
Playing minutes for Brobbey?
On Greek soil, Brian Brobbey may get his first playing minutes of the season. "Brian is back, the week has been positive for him," stated Farioli, who may bring the striker as a substitute. "It will depend on the type of game we are going to play, but I think he can play some minutes."
