Squad

A falling-out at Flora

Caio Amaral and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

The dugout

When it matters, Danil Kuraksin 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.

The dugout

A door opens for Evert Grünvald

He asked about his future and was given an answer with minutes in it. The manager has now made a promise in a building where promises are remembered, and the clock on it has started.

Squad

Words exchanged at Flora

Andreas Vaher and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad

A row about effort at Flora

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Mihhail Kolobov was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Loan watch

Mark Hendrik Kukk has seen enough of FC Tallinn

“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at Flora, and 0 appearances in 13 say he has earned the hearing.

The dugout

Caio Amaral has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Flora will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

The dugout

Evert Grünvald 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 Evert Grünvald has written the date down.

Squad

Carlos Torres has settled at Flora

The shrug has gone, the language is coming, and he now argues in training like somebody who expects to be here next year. Half a signing's value is this and none of it appears on a fee.

Match

Cup progress for Flora

A 3‑1 win over Tammeka, a place in the next round, and the quiet arithmetic every supporter does on the walk home: how many more until a final?

Market

Flora turn down Skonto for Rauno Sappinen

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

Player ratings

Both of them Sergei Zenjov's — 8.67

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.67, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Market

Danil Kuraksin hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Flora can pretend not to have heard.

Transfer targets

Abdourahman Badamosi due for a Flora medical

Everything agreed with Paide, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Daniil Motorin

Flora asked and Rubin said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Squad

Words exchanged at Flora

Andreas Vaher and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

The terraces

One of their own: Danil Kuraksin

He is 23 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.

Player ratings

One of those days for Danil Kuraksin

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.16, and no argument anywhere in the ground.
