A knee injury of the worst kind for Marius Mouandilmadji
41 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Adana Demirspor lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

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

Fırat Sarı says Adana Demirspor 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.

Words exchanged at Adana Demirspor
Marius Mouandilmadji and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

The step up is real for Ulaş İmergi
At 19 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

Home is on Fernando Rolón's mind
“Some mornings you wake up and you are still a long way from everything you know.” It is not the football and it never was; Adana Demirspor are dealing with a man who wants a different country.

A reunion for Murat Eser
He used to wear the other shirt. On Saturday he plays against Istanbulspor in this one, and whatever he says this week about it being just another game will be untrue.

The Ahmet Arslan story refuses to die
It has been denied twice and printed three times, which is the usual arithmetic. Until Ahmet Arslan signs something — a contract at Adana Demirspor or anywhere else — this column belongs to him.

Luís Fernando asks for a word with the manager
“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.
