Boardroom

The scrutiny sharpens at Orebro

Nobody upstairs has said anything, which is the loudest thing they could do. Results buy silence in this game; the account at Orebro is running low.

Market

Alai Ghasem asks to leave Orebro

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad

Aranđel Stojković 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 Orebro this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Måns Andersson stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Måns Andersson and Orebro agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad

“I want to play”: Norberto Bedolla speaks

“I respect the manager and I am not going to sit here and pretend I am happy.” It is the most common sentence in football and it has never once been the end of a story.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Facundo Moreira

“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.

Squad

Somebody is after Ahmed Yasin’s shirt

A new face in his position, and Ahmed Yasin suddenly has to win back what he thought he owned. Orebro have promised nothing — clubs rarely do at this stage.

Boardroom

The silence upstairs is getting loud at Orebro

Nobody on the board has said anything against the manager, which is the point — they have stopped saying anything for him either.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Antonio Yakoub

Successful dribbles: 26. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

Ibrahima Fofana 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 Orebro this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

No hiding place for Rúnar Alex Rúnarsson

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Rúnar Alex Rúnarsson, and the manager let it.

Match

Djurgarden take the points off Orebro

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Player ratings

Samuel Wikman leaves them behind him

Shots: 10. Goals: none. The chances were there and they were good ones, and they went into the stand, the goalkeeper's arms and the side netting in roughly that order.

Squad

Rúnar Alex Rúnarsson 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 Orebro this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings

Antonio Yakoub runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 21. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Oscar Sjöstrand

Marked 9.36 — 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.

Match

Samuel Wikman sends Orebro past Helsingborg

It finished 2‑1, and it was Samuel Wikman’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Orebro.

Squad

Norberto Bedolla 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.

Player ratings

One of those days for Samuel Wikman

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.21, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Boardroom

The scrutiny sharpens at Orebro

Nobody upstairs has said anything, which is the loudest thing they could do. Results buy silence in this game; the account at Orebro is running low.

Squad

Måns Andersson: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Orebro have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Player ratings

Manasse Kusu runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 22. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

Tempers go at Orebro

Aranđel Stojković 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.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Oscar Sjöstrand

Marked 8.81 — 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.

Match

Orebro come up short against Djurgarden

Djurgarden left with the points after a 0‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Fabián Muñoz

“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.

Squad

Hampus Söderström knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Orebro, and both men came out saying it was fine.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

Tim Rönning says Halmstad went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Squad

Carlos Mosquera 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 Halmstad this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

The manager makes an example of André Boman

“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.

Kim Dickson signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Kim Dickson commits to Orebro for another 3 years.

Squad

John Stenberg 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.
