From our football correspondent Crisis

Match

Bukovyna up to position 3

48 points on the board and a place in the leading group. Nobody at the ground is saying the word out loud yet.

Market

Mykyta Bezuhlyi puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Bukovyna, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad

Vasyl Hakman: 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.” Bukovyna have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Boardroom

161% of the income goes out in wages at Bukovyna

Every club in football pays most of what it earns to its players. Paying nearly all of it is a different arrangement, and it has ended the same way every time somebody has tried it.

Match

Feniks take the points off Bukovyna

Beaten 0‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Squad

Álex Sánchez 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.

Squad

Tempers go at Bukovyna

Bohdan Boichuk 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.

Market

Zorya are about to pick up the phone

A conversation is coming this week. Bukovyna will put a number on him, and from there it stops being football and becomes arithmetic.

Squad

Words at Bukovyna training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Denys Smetana is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Match

Bukovyna are in among the leaders

Position 2 and 36 points on the board. Nobody at the ground will say the word out loud yet, and everybody at the ground is thinking it.

Squad

Vasyl Hakman keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Bukovyna may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Match

8 unbeaten for Bukovyna

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 8 matches without defeat is a foundation Bukovyna did not have in the autumn.

Match

Tiziano Perrotta the difference as Bukovyna beat Metalist

Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: Tiziano Perrotta. 3‑1 against Metalist, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Squad

Words at Bukovyna training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Matthijs van Nispen is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Squad

Oleh Kozhushko 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 Bukovyna this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
