Boardroom

Window shuts: 3 in, 13 out at Jagiellonia

The deadline has passed and the squad is the squad. 3 arrived, 13 left, and everything else printed about this club last month was a rumour that stayed one.

Squad

Tempers go at Jagiellonia

Taras Romanczuk was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

Words at Jagiellonia training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Arkadiusz Milik is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad

Bartłomiej Wdowik is no longer first choice

The manager has re-ordered his thinking and Bartłomiej Wdowik has come out of it lower. He will be told it is temporary, and the players who have heard that before will avoid his eye.

Squad

Newertton: “I am not a substitute”

“I have done everything asked of me in training and it has not changed a thing on a Saturday.” The most familiar complaint in football, and one Jagiellonia will have to answer with minutes or with a transfer.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Yuki Kobayashi

“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.

The dugout

When it matters, Arkadiusz Milik plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Looking ahead

Arkadiusz Milik goes back to face Gornik Zabrze

Every squad has one of these fixtures for somebody every season. This one is Arkadiusz Milik’s: the club that knew him first, the supporters who will decide in the first minute whether to applaud, and Jagiellonia needing him to play as if none of it matters.

The dugout

Norbert Wojtuszek has been promised minutes

A conversation in the manager’s office, and a commitment that came out of it. Promises like that are cheap to make and expensive to break, and Norbert Wojtuszek has written the date down.

In brief
