Squad

The manager makes an example of Mateo Anaya

“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.

Match

FH take the points off Vikingur

Beaten 0-1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Loan watch

Óskar Borgþórsson has seen enough of Keflavik

“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at Vikingur, and 1 appearances in 5 say he has earned the hearing.

Squad

Ingvar Jónsson knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Vikingur, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market

Sveinn Gísli Þorkelsson linked with a move away

The name of Sveinn Gísli Þorkelsson keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Vikingur say nothing, which says plenty.

Squad

Somebody is after Viktor Örlygur Andrason’s shirt

A new face in his position, and Viktor Örlygur Andrason suddenly has to win back what he thought he owned. Vikingur have promised nothing — clubs rarely do at this stage.

Aron Snær Friðriksson signs a new deal

Squad

Tarik Ibrahimagic out for 15 days

The medical room confirms 15 days on the sidelines for Tarik Ibrahimagic, and a plan built around him now has to be rebuilt.

Squad

Gylfi Sigurðsson signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Gylfi Sigurðsson commits to Vikingur for another 2 years.

Market

Óskar Borgþórsson attracts admirers

The name of Óskar Borgþórsson has come up in conversations Vikingur were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Market

Fylkir come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Vikingur did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Market

IA watching Óskar Borgþórsson

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Vikingur have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Market

Ármann Ingi Finnbogason moves on

Breidablik pay $250.0K, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.

Squad

Óskar Borgþórsson signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Óskar Borgþórsson commits to Vikingur for another 4 years.

Market

Valur expected to open talks for Jóhannes Kristinn Bjarnason

Both sides expect a conversation in the coming days. Vikingur will name a price, and everything after that is arithmetic.

Squad

Gunnar Vatnhamar: 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.” Vikingur have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad

Maksym Hryso 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.

Miguel Suárez knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Vikingur, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Match

Still nobody has beaten Vikingur

The unbeaten run reaches 9. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Boardroom

312% of the income goes out in wages at Vikingur

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

Vikingur get the job done against Fjolnir

A 2-0 win over Fjolnir, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Mateo Anaya

“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.

Squad

Vikingur lose Aron Snær Friðriksson

42 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Market

Vikingur put Elías Már Ómarsson up for sale

The list is a quiet document with a loud meaning. Elías Már Ómarsson may talk to anybody who asks, and everybody at the club understands what that means.

Match

Vikingur through in the cup

A 1-0 win over Breidablik, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.

Match

6 unbeaten for Vikingur

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 6 matches without defeat is a foundation Vikingur did not have in the autumn.

Squad

Gylfi Sigurðsson 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

Tarik Ibrahimagic knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Vikingur, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Match

Vikingur draw a blank against IBV

The crowd waited for a goal that never came. IBV defended in numbers and left with what they came for, and the two sides could be playing still without troubling a scorer.

Market

Sveinn Gísli Þorkelsson linked with a move away

The name of Sveinn Gísli Þorkelsson keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Vikingur say nothing, which says plenty.

Squad

Gylfi Sigurðsson has taken the shirt

At 36 he is in the side on merit and somebody else is watching from the bench. Places at Vikingur are won quietly and lost loudly.

Squad

Ingvar Jónsson has company in his position

The competition arrived without a word said to him about it. Ingvar Jónsson keeps the shirt for now, at Vikingur's convenience rather than his own.

Market

Mateo Anaya joins Vikingur on a free

No fee and no drama: Mateo Anaya has signed at Vikingur, and the wage bill is the only line that moved.
