Marked for Michele Borrelli

The terraces16 Oct 2028

The mood at Mantova has turned into something else

Supporters who sing when it goes badly are supporters. Supporters who gather afterwards are a problem, and everybody inside the building knows which of the two this now is.

Boardroom16 Oct 2028

Michele Borrelli signs for Casertana while still at Mantova

The rules permit it and it stings anyway. Michele Borrelli has agreed terms with Casertana for the summer, and until then he pulls on this shirt as a player who has already chosen his next one.

Squad16 Oct 2028

Words at Mantova training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Davide Bragantini 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.

Squad16 Oct 2028

Tempers go at Mantova

Giacomo Fedel 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.

Squad16 Oct 2028

No hiding place for Luca Sonzogni

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Luca Sonzogni, and the manager let it.

Match14 Oct 2028

Juve Stabia take the points off Mantova

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

Squad20 Mar 2028

A one-man rearguard from Luca Sonzogni

There were 6 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Match18 Mar 2028

No end in sight to Mantova's wait for a win

4 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Mantova has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad20 Mar 2028

Leonardo Mancuso 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 Mantova this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings20 Mar 2028

Nobody could get near Antonio Fiori

Successful dribbles: 22. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad20 Mar 2028

A move Michele Borrelli 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. Michele Borrelli is living that version at Mantova, and it tends to show in the first month.

Squad20 Mar 2028

Davide Bragantini is carrying Mantova

7 goals and a season average of 7.52. Form like that gets noticed well beyond this town.

Player ratings20 Mar 2028

Davide Bragantini in the eights

A performance of 8.74 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

Match18 Mar 2028

Mantova hit back inside 3 minutes

Bari held the lead for 3 minutes, which is not long enough to enjoy it. Mantova answered before the celebration had properly finished, and the shape of the afternoon changed with it.

Market20 Mar 2028

A long bet from Mantova on Michele Borrelli

He is 20, and nobody at Mantova signed him for this season. Deals like this are judged in four years, by people who may not still be in the building.
