The Javor-Matis Chronicle

From our football correspondent Uneasy

The dugout

Lazar Stojanović keeps the receipts

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

Squad

15 new faces, and Javor-Matis are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

The dugout

Benjamin Acquah has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Javor-Matis will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Botché Candé

“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.

Market

The Mass Sise question follows Javor-Matis around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Mass Sise’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

Loan watch

Francis Antwi keeps scoring at FAP Priboj

9 appearances away from home and 4 goals to show for them. Every one of them makes next summer's conversation a little more expensive.

In brief
