The terraces

Supporters turn on the $1.2M sale of Jakub Janetzký

He is going to Bohemians 1905, the club has $1.2M it did not have on Friday, and the phone-ins have already decided how they feel about that. Selling well and selling somebody they loved are not the same skill.

Boardroom

Zbrojovka Brno close the window on a squad of their own making

1 in and 6 out, and no more changes for months. The manager has what he has, the supporters have their opinion of it, and the table will have the last word.

Market

Zbrojovka Brno turn down Teplice for Kaká

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Market

Jakub Janetzký moves on

Bohemians 1905 pay $1.2M, 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.

Transfer targets

Zbrojovka Brno baulk at the price for Matěj Polidar

Jablonec wanted more than $250.0K and the board would not go there. Walked away, for now, which in a transfer window means until somebody blinks.

Squad

Jaromír Zmrhal slips down the pecking order

The demotion a club never announces and a dressing room always notices. Jaromír Zmrhal is further from the side than he was, and the reason will not be given until he asks.

Squad

Words at Zbrojovka Brno training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Patrik Čavoš 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.

Squad

Martin Gjorgievski makes the team of the month

Four or five weekends of consistency, measured against everybody else in the division. A quieter compliment than an award and a more reliable one.

The dugout

Filip Blecha 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.

Market

Tomáš Břečka agrees terms with Jihlava

The clubs have settled the fee and he has settled his wages. What remains is a medical and a photograph, and around Zbrojovka Brno people have started saying his name in the past tense.

Player ratings

Bienvenue Kanakimana beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 28. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Market

Patrik Čavoš 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 Zbrojovka Brno can pretend not to have heard.

Transfer targets

No thanks: Leandro Filipe rejects the move

Zbrojovka Brno had done everything except persuade the man himself. He stays at DAC Dunajska Streda, and the manager goes back to the drawing board with the money still in the bank.

Market

Zbrojovka Brno say no — this time

The offer from Teplice for Štěpán Langer was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Market

Teplice watching Kaká

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

Squad

Rigino Cicilia 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 Zbrojovka Brno this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

14 new faces, and Zbrojovka Brno are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

The dugout

Martin Rymarenko 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.
