Player ratings

Roberto Massimo runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 33. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

A one-man rearguard from Mateusz Pruchniewski

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.

Player ratings

German Onugkha, 33, rolls back the years — 7.99

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 7.99 at 33, and nobody on the pitch was better.

The dugout

Jan Zielinski says Slask went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Market

Luciano Centurión 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 Slask can pretend not to have heard.

Transfer targets

Raul Kumar due for a Slask medical

Everything agreed with Dinamo Zagreb, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Squad

Jan Jurčec signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Jan Jurčec commits to Slask for another 4 years.

Squad

Tempers go at Slask

Roberto Massimo 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.

Squad

Tiernan Brooks gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Tiernan Brooks has just signed for Slask, and for once the answer mattered.

Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Ángel Borgo

49 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Slask lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Market

Jorge Yriarte has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Slask they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Market

Patryk Sokołowski 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 Slask can pretend not to have heard.

Transfer targets

Adam Buksa due for a Slask medical

Everything agreed with AS Roma, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Squad

Words exchanged at Slask

Roberto Massimo and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad

The step up is real for Luciano Centurión

At 23 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

Squad

Words at Slask training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. German Onugkha 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.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Oliwier Zych

Slask asked and Sparta Prague said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.
