  1. Criticised in a full-time post-mortem

    Minor
    Cause
    It was a private show of faith after a tough recent run. He does not always respond well to pressure, which softened the lift.
    Outlook
    Likely to settle unless repeated within the next few weeks.

  2. Led the defence in a tight match

    Minor
    Cause
    He held the back line together when the game was hanging in the balance.

  3. Reassured by a calm full-time message

    Minor
    Cause
    The moment called for a quiet show of support. He does not always respond well to pressure, which softened the lift.
    Outlook
    Trend is improving — relationship should keep strengthening.

  4. Left out as Alex Clarridge-Ansell was preferred

    Minor
    Chosen instead
    Alex Clarridge-Ansell was preferred — lower injury-risk profile.
    Cause
    The manager protected him after a heavy workload.
    Outlook
    Likely to settle unless repeated within the next few weeks.

  5. Selected for the Young Team of the Week

  6. Criticised for missing his tactical assignment

    Moderate
    Cause
    The manager felt he ignored a specific tactical assignment. His match rating of 6.0 weighed heavily in the talk.
    Outlook
    Manager intervention may be required if it persists.

  7. Away supporters were hostile

    Moderate
    Cause
    He drew sustained jeers from the away end.

  8. Criticised in a full-time post-mortem

    Minor
    Cause
    It was a private show of faith after a tough recent run. He does not always respond well to pressure, which softened the lift.
    Outlook
    Manager intervention may be required if it persists.

  9. Made his senior debut for the club

  10. Reassured by a calm full-time message

    Minor
    Cause
    The moment called for a quiet show of support. He does not always respond well to pressure, which softened the lift.
    Outlook
    Trend is improving — relationship should keep strengthening.

  11. Left out as Kane Wilson was preferred

    Moderate
    Chosen instead
    Kane Wilson was preferred — his higher squad-status priority.
    Cause
    His squad status would normally start, so the omission stings.
    Outlook
    Likely to settle unless repeated within the next few weeks.

  12. Clashed with Jack Burke over training standards

    Minor
    Cause
    The disagreement started because they judged training effort very differently. It played out on the training ground in front of the rest of the squad.
    Outlook
    Likely to settle unless repeated within the next few weeks.

  13. Left out as Kane Wilson was preferred

    Moderate
    Chosen instead
    Kane Wilson was preferred — his higher squad-status priority.
    Cause
    His squad status would normally start, so the omission stings.
    Outlook
    Likely to settle unless repeated within the next few weeks.

  14. Worried by competition from a new signing Lucas Clarke

    Moderate
    Cause
    The signing was bought with a similar squad-status tier in mind. He was already short on minutes before the signing arrived.
    Outlook
    Contract request risk increased.
