Scoring charts

Óskar Borgþórsson tops the scoring charts

Nobody in the division bettered it last month: 4 goals in 4 appearances for Vikingur.

Scoring charts

The month belonged to Óskar Borgþórsson

Marked 8.40 across it, 4 goals and assists between them, and no serious argument from anybody else in the division. Vikingur have had the whole benefit of a month somebody else will spend the summer trying to buy.

Scoring charts

The division's brightest kid this month plays for Valur

Viktor Bjarki Daðason was marked 7.91 and had a hand in 3 goals. Every recruitment department in the country now has a file open, and the club that has him knows exactly what that means.

Omar Sowe hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what IBV can pretend not to have heard.

Scoring charts

Nobody made more than Jökull Andrésson this month

3 assists, 6.91, and a FH player who spent four weekends being the reason somebody else's name went in the paper. It is the least-rewarded skill in football and the easiest one to notice its absence.

Steinar Þorsteinsson has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around IA they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Scoring charts

Highest marks in the league belong to a Vikingur man

Óskar Borgþórsson averaged 8.40 over 4 appearances. Nothing about that will trend, and anybody who watched all four games would tell you it was the most accurate thing on this page.

Scoring charts

Kristján Flóki Finnbogason makes the list

3 appearances, 2 goals, and a place among the division's leading scorers for the month. Strikers measure a season in exactly these lines.

Gísli Eyjólfsson up among the month's scorers

A productive month at IA — 2 goals from 4 appearances, and a place near the top of the charts.

Héctor Eduardo Acevedo keeps the pressure on

3 goals in 4 appearances for IBV leave him among the month's leading marksmen.

Talks stall between Breidablik and Jacob Barrett Laursen

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

Scoring charts

Emil Atlason tops the scoring charts

Nobody in the division bettered it last month: 4 goals in 5 appearances for Stjarnan.

Scoring charts

Tobias Carlsson is the division's player of the month — 7.80

A club's paper reports this as one of its own being honoured. On this page it is what it actually is: a verdict on everybody who played, and it went to a FH man on 7.80 with 2 goal contributions.

Scoring charts

The division's brightest kid this month plays for KR

Jakob Gunnar Sigurðsson was marked 7.43 and had a hand in 4 goals. Every recruitment department in the country now has a file open, and the club that has him knows exactly what that means.

Market

Elías Már Ómarsson asks to leave Vikingur

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Market

IA turn down Tromso for Viktor Jónsson

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Market

The Vikingur deal is off

Everything was agreed until it was not, and Ólafur Kristófer Helgason reports back to Fylkir with a summer to forget. Neither club is saying who walked away from the table.

Scoring charts

Nobody made more than Ingvar Jónsson this month

5 assists, 7.59, and a Vikingur player who spent four weekends being the reason somebody else's name went in the paper. It is the least-rewarded skill in football and the easiest one to notice its absence.

Market

Only the photograph left for Albin Skoglund

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Albin Skoglund will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Valur the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Highest marks in the league belong to a FH man

Tobias Carlsson averaged 7.80 over 5 appearances. Nothing about that will trend, and anybody who watched all four games would tell you it was the most accurate thing on this page.

Milan Jezdimirović told to find a new club

“They were honest with me, and I would rather know.” Milan Jezdimirović has been informed he is not in the manager's thinking at IBV.

Market

The clock runs on Tarik Ibrahimagic's contract

5 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.

Guðfinnur Þór Leósson's agent talks up a move

“He is at an age where he has to be playing at the top level. We will listen to anybody.” The representative of Guðfinnur Þór Leósson is not being subtle.
