A falling-out at Slovan Liberec
Lukáš Masopust and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

No place for Šimon Gabriel on the big day
He found out with everybody else, an hour before kick-off, from a sheet of paper on a wall. Nobody at Slovan Liberec pretended it was anything other than a decision about him.

Haris Berbić stays put
“The easiest signature of my career.” Haris Berbić and Slovan Liberec agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

A promise honoured at Slovan Liberec
Something was said to Filip Vecheta and then it happened. In this industry that passes for remarkable, and the dressing room noticed faster than any supporter could.

A row about effort at Slovan Liberec
Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Augustin Drakpe was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Filip Vecheta knocks on the manager’s door
“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Filip Vecheta trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.
