Squad

The manager makes an example of Daniil Prokopchuk

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Boardroom

135% of the income goes out in wages at Sapovnela

Every club in football pays most of what it earns to its players. Paying nearly all of it is a different arrangement, and it has ended the same way every time somebody has tried it.

Squad

Willames José keeps his manager's vote

The message was aimed at the stands as much as the dressing room: Willames José plays, and the argument is closed until the manager decides otherwise.

Squad

Dmitriy Sibilev gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad

Sandro Shugladze signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Sandro Shugladze commits to Sapovnela for another 1 years.

Squad

Guðmann Þórisson asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Market

Experience through the door at Sapovnela

Sídnei arrives at 37 with nothing left to prove and plenty left to pass on. Legs are a young man's currency; knowing where to stand never ages.
