  6. Settling well in a culturally familiar country

  7. Wants the board to strengthen the squad

    Moderate
    Cause
    He feels the squad around him is not strong enough to match his ambition. (He is openly ambitious.; The squad's quality sits below his own level.)

  13. Made his senior debut for the club

  14. Warned about his body language

    Moderate
