  1. Settling well into the dressing room

    Minor
    Cause
    A strong training-ground partnership is behind this. The bond between them was already strong, so the morale hit should be limited.
    Outlook
    Settling-in period is still under way.
  2. Settling well in a culturally familiar country

    Minor
    Cause
    The country and culture suit him.; A move home or to a favoured club has been linked.
  3. Worried by competition from a new signing Calvin Ramsay

    Moderate

    Contract request risk increased.
  4. Clashed with Jack Tucker over training standards

    Likely to settle unless repeated within the next few weeks.
