2011–12 season, Part II
On 6 October 2011 Nikos Kostenoglou agreed on a one and a half year deal with AEK Athens.
The club performed better under Kostenoglou but was plagued by injuries, most notably Eiður Guðjohnsen's who was out for six months. Subsequently, youngsters such as Viktor Klonaridis, Mavroudis Bougaidis and Taxiarchis Fountas found their way into the club's starting eleven.
Despite the problems the club qualified for the Superleague Greece playoffs and conpeted for the Champions League qualification slot but lost it in the last fixture against Panathinaikos protesting for a wrongly disallowed goal scored by captain Nikos Liberopoulos.

Famous quotes containing the word part:
“Even if matter could do every outward thing that God does, the idea of it would not work as satisfactorily, because the chief call for a God on modern men’s part is for a being who will inwardly recognize them and judge them sympathetically. Matter disappoints this craving of our ego, so God remains for most men the truer hypothesis, and indeed remains so for definite pragmatic reasons.”
—William James (1842–1910)
