Mood

  1. Worried by competition from a new signing Filip Benković

    Moderate
    Cause
    The new arrival has visibly higher ability. The newcomer is on a much larger wage deal.
    Outlook
    Contract request risk increased.

  2. Unsettled by the squad wage hierarchy

    Minor
    Cause
    The squad's wage hierarchy is the underlying issue. The gap to the squad's top earners has become a daily reminder.
    Outlook
    Contract request risk increased.

  3. Reassured by a calm full-time message

    Minor

    The team had won, and the manager wanted to reinforce the standards. A repeated team-talk tone had less impact than usual.

    Trend is improving — relationship should keep strengthening.

  4. Personality clash with Filip Benković
