Squad

Diego Córdoba 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

Yaroslav-Avhustyn Pankivskyi 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 Rukh, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Squad

The manager comes out for Samba Diallo

Public backing, and the sort that costs a manager something if it turns out to be wrong. Samba Diallo has been told in front of everybody that the shirt is his.

Market

Denys Sliusar hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Rukh can pretend not to have heard.

Market

Ahrobiznes come back empty-handed

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

Squad

Somebody is after Konstantinos Sotiriou’s shirt

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

Market

Rukh pick up Fedor Fenin for nothing

The best deals are the ones the accountants never notice. Fedor Fenin arrives at Rukh with his wages the only cost and something to prove the only clause.

Squad

Ibrahim Juma 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.

Squad

Yury Lodygin is finding his feet at Rukh

The language is coming and there is somebody to talk to in the dressing room. A footballer who feels at home plays like one, and it never shows up in a scouting report.
