Scoring charts

Thomas Alberti is the division’s leading scorer

4 goals in 3 games, and nobody else in the league close to it. Cavese have the man every defence in the division is planning around.

Scoring charts

Player of the month: Thomas Alberti — 8.29

Everybody in the division was measured and a Cavese man came out on top: 8.29 across the month and 6 goal contributions. There is no serious case for anybody else.

Scoring charts

Luca Mazzeo is the month's best young player — 7.11

The award the rest of the division reads as a transfer rumour. 7.11 over the month and 1 goal contributions, from a Potenza player whose price has just gone up without anybody at his club doing anything.

Leandro Iglesias puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Picerno, and it is not being withdrawn.

Scoring charts

Thomas Alberti leads the division for assists — 8.29

The chart that decides who the scorers ought to be thanking. 2 of them made by a Cavese player marked 8.29, and not one will be in the montage at the end of the season.

Market

Mario Ierardi is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Catania is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Market

Reggiana come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Casertana did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Market

The Hellas Verona deal is off

Everything was agreed until it was not, and Marco Pissardo reports back to Bari with a summer to forget. Neither club is saying who walked away from the table.

Scoring charts

Giuseppe Fella is right behind him

3 goals in 3 appearances for Cavese, and a chart that would look very different if two of them had gone in off the post instead of past it.

Scoring charts

Jacopo Manconi makes the list

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

Scoring charts

Vincenzo Millico is right behind him

3 goals in 3 appearances for Altamura, and a chart that would look very different if two of them had gone in off the post instead of past it.

Scoring charts

Federico Zuccon up among the month's scorers

A productive month at Foggia — 3 goals from 3 appearances, and a place near the top of the charts.

Scoring charts

Antonio Energe tops the scoring charts

Nobody in the division bettered it last month: 2 goals in 1 appearances for Cosenza.

Market

Mario Ierardi agrees terms with Ospitaletto

The clubs have settled the fee and he has settled his wages. What remains is a medical and a photograph, and around Catania people have started saying his name in the past tense.

Market

Cosenza turn down Cagliari for Aldo Florenzi

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

Scoring charts

The division’s top provider is Simone Mazzocchi — 8.29

2 assists across the month from a Cosenza player marked 8.29. Somebody has to open the door before anybody walks through it, and nobody in the league opened more.

Market

Mario Ierardi asks to leave Catania

“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

Diego Fagúndez wants European nights

The general version of this complaint is that a player wants more. The specific version names the thing: he wants to walk out under floodlights against clubs from other countries, and he has stopped pretending otherwise.

Scoring charts

Lorenzo Paolucci keeps the pressure on

2 goals in 1 appearances for Audace Cerignola leave him among the month's leading marksmen.

Scoring charts

Francesco Forte is right behind him

1 goals in 1 appearances for Catania, and a chart that would look very different if two of them had gone in off the post instead of past it.

Scoring charts

Simone Mazzocchi keeps the pressure on

1 goals in 1 appearances for Cosenza leave him among the month's leading marksmen.

Scoring charts

Michele Emmausso is right behind him

1 goals in 1 appearances for Cosenza, and a chart that would look very different if two of them had gone in off the post instead of past it.

Scoring charts

1 assists and counting for Michele Emmausso

Marked 8.46 across the month. Somewhere in this division there are strikers whose goal tally belongs partly to him, and none of them will say so.

Scoring charts

Mattia Tascone keeps making them — 1 this month

7.53 for a Salernitana player whose contribution is measured entirely in other people's celebrations. The providers' chart is the one nobody frames and everybody in a dressing room reads.

Market

The clock runs on Michele Cerofolini's contract

11 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.

Market

Daniele Bolcano is free to find somewhere else

“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at Cavese has been clear about where Daniele Bolcano stands, which is more than many ever get.

Market

Leonardo Mendicino linked with a move away

The name of Leonardo Mendicino keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Bari say nothing, which says plenty.
