Squad

A move Bohdan Biloshevskyi would have made for nothing

There is a version of every career where the player ends up somewhere he chose rather than somewhere that chose him. Bohdan Biloshevskyi is living that version at Chernihiv, and it tends to show in the first month.

Squad

Bohdan Biloshevskyi signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Bohdan Biloshevskyi commits to Chernihiv for another 3 years.

Squad

Tempers go at Chernihiv

Maksym Tatarenko 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.

Match

A bad afternoon for Chernihiv against Prykarpattia

1‑2 to Prykarpattia, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad

Yehor Shalfieiev 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.

Market

Bohdan Biloshevskyi joins Chernihiv on a free

No fee and no drama: Bohdan Biloshevskyi has signed at Chernihiv, and the wage bill is the only line that moved.

Squad

Tempers go at Chernihiv

Maksym Tatarenko 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

The manager makes an example of Yehor Kartushov

“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.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Maksym Serdiuk

Successful dribbles: 16. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Market

Talks stall between Chernihiv and Maksym Serdiuk

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

Player ratings

Nothing got past Dmytro Fatieiev

15 defensive actions and a clean sheet at the end of them. A defender's afternoon can only be told by what did not happen, which is why nobody makes a highlights package out of one and every manager in the division would take it.

Squad

Pavlo Shushko is still paying for one afternoon at Chernihiv

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.

Squad

Chernihiv pick somebody else ahead of Pavlo Shushko

There is no complaint available here and everybody involved knows it, which does not make the walk to the bench any shorter. Form is the only currency in football that cannot be borrowed against.

Market

The clock runs on Nikita Tepliakov's contract

48 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.

Market

Dmytro Sakhno told to find a new club

“They were honest with me, and I would rather know.” Dmytro Sakhno has been informed he is not in the manager's thinking at Chernihiv.
