Nobody could get near Anton Antonov

Successful dribbles: 31. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

The dugout

Norbert Nagy says Chernomorets 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

Danil Baklanov puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Chernomorets, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market

Chernomorets turn down Akron for Kirill Morozov

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

Squad

Home is on Eiler Aponzá's mind

“Some mornings you wake up and you are still a long way from everything you know.” It is not the football and it never was; Chernomorets are dealing with a man who wants a different country.

Squad

Tempers go at Chernomorets

Kirill Suslov 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

Matija Popović falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Krasian Kolev

At 23 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Market

Jesús Serrano puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Chernomorets, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market

Chernomorets say no — this time

The offer from Nizhniy Novgorod for Stepan Oganesyan 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.

Transfer targets

Valentin Paltsev due for a Chernomorets medical

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

Transfer targets

Mikhail Volkov turns down Chernomorets

The clubs had agreed and the player had not. A snub, and a public one: Torpedo Moscow keep him, and the supporters here are left wondering what he had heard about the place.

Market

Gadjimurad Abdullaev is a Chernomorets player

The fee is $98.0K, the contract is signed, and the argument about whether he is worth it can begin. Murom drove a hard bargain; time will say who won it.

Squad

Tempers go at Chernomorets

Ognjen Marinković 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

Real improvement from Danil Baklanov at Chernomorets

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Danil Baklanov is 22, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Squad

Gadjimurad Abdullaev arrives at the club he grew up with

Every footballer has an answer to the question about his boyhood club, and most of them never get to act on it. Gadjimurad Abdullaev has, at Chernomorets, and the first month will show what that does to a man.

Squad

A late step up for Zaur Tarba

At 24 the improving is meant to be over. It is not: 3 points better than the mark taken at the start of the year, which is the sort of thing that happens to players who take the boring parts of the job seriously.

In brief
