Marked for Nemanja Đeković

Match6 Oct 2029

Napredak taken apart

0‑4 to Crvena Zvezda, and it was every bit as bad as the number suggests. There are defeats you argue about and defeats you apologise for; this was the second kind.

Match3 Oct 2029

A European lesson for Napredak

1‑2 against Sint-Truiden. Continental football is unforgiving about the things a domestic league lets a side get away with, and this was a night spent finding out which of those the club still has.

Nemanja Stevanović keeps Napredak in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 6 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Tempers go at Napredak

Aleksandar Lutovac 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.

Squad8 Oct 2029

Miloš Vulić falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

A masterclass from Bogdan Kostić

Marked 8.20 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Boardroom8 Oct 2029

Inquest at Napredak

The manager kept them in and said what needed saying. A response is expected on Saturday, and if it does not come the questions move upstairs.

Squad8 Oct 2029

Nemanja Đeković is still paying for one afternoon at Napredak

Nobody will confirm this and nothing else explains the last month of selections. A costly error buys a player a period of being second choice that is always longer than the error was.

A day to forget for Nemanja Đeković

Marked 4.37, and generously at that. Nothing came off, and by the end the crowd had stopped expecting it to.

Squad16 Jul 2029

Real improvement from Nikola Skrobonja at Napredak

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Nikola Skrobonja is 23, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Squad16 Jul 2029

Nemanja Stevanović in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Napredak this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad16 Jul 2029

Nemanja Đeković has improved at 26, which nobody expected

Careers are supposed to plateau and then decline, and the players who ignore that are always the ones who were listening on the training ground. 3 points of it, over months, at an age where the direction normally only goes one way.

In brief
