Squad

Tempers go at Slovan Liberec

Tomáš Koubek 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 Miguel Galinho at Slovan Liberec

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Miguel Galinho is 19, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Squad

Words at Slovan Liberec training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Jan Bořil 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

A late step up for Petr Juliš

At 25 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.

Player ratings

One of those days for Raimonds Krollis

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.10, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Match

Lukáš Letenay rescues a point for Slovan Liberec

It needed Lukáš Letenay to find the net to bring anything home at all: 2‑2 against Slavia Prague, and half the dressing room will call it a point won.

The terraces

The ground has had enough

“We travel everywhere and we get this.” 9 of the 37 senior players heard it walking off, and the ones who did not hear it were not playing.

Boardroom

Pressure builds in the Slovan Liberec boardroom

The directors have stopped offering the manager public warmth. In football that is usually the stage before the short statement.

Squad

Tomáš Koubek keeps Slovan Liberec in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 6 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Squad

Tempers go at Slovan Liberec

Tomáš Koubek 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

A move Miguel Galinho would have made for nothing

There is a version of every career where the player ends up somewhere he chose rather than somewhere that chose him. Miguel Galinho is living that version at Slovan Liberec, and it tends to show in the first month.

Squad

Words at Slovan Liberec training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Jan Bořil 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.

Match

Banik Ostrava take the points off Slovan Liberec

Beaten 1‑3, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Petr Juliš

Successful dribbles: 15. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Market

Slovan Liberec sign Miguel Galinho, one for the future

Miguel Galinho is 18, and Slovan Liberec have signed him for the player he will be rather than the one he is. The first team can wait; the point of a deal like this is the years it buys.
