A falling-out at Djakovo Croatia

Branko Vrgoč and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

A row about effort at Djakovo Croatia

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Zvonko Pamić was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The dugout15 Mar 2027

No hiding place for Zvonko Pamić

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Zvonko Pamić, and the manager let it.

Belts tighten at Djakovo Croatia

The accounts are being read more closely than the results. Wages before ambition is the order of business now, and the manager has been told so.

Squad15 Mar 2027

The formation has left Simen Brudvik behind

Every shape has positions in it and this one does not have his. Djakovo Croatia will either change the shape, change his job, or change his club, and he is waiting to hear which.

“I want to play”: Diter Đuričić speaks

“I respect the manager and I am not going to sit here and pretend I am happy.” It is the most common sentence in football and it has never once been the end of a story.

Boardroom8 Mar 2027

Djakovo Croatia put Marcelo Sucic on notice

The board have said in public what they had been saying in private. Results between now and the next meeting decide it, and everybody in the building knows the arithmetic.

No sign of nerves from Fran Ivan Marić at 18 — 7.76

The hardest thing about being 18 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Fran Ivan Marić did not need any: 7.76, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

Branko Vrgoč 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 Djakovo Croatia this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

A row about effort at Djakovo Croatia

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Mario Nikolić was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The dugout8 Mar 2027

No hiding place for Mario Nikolić

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Mario Nikolić, and the manager let it.

Marko Cukon runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 17. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Market8 Mar 2027

Talks stall between Djakovo Croatia and Branko Vrgoč

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

Djakovo Croatia sign Simen Brudvik, one for the future

Simen Brudvik is 20, and Djakovo Croatia 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.

Squad8 Mar 2027

Simen Brudvik stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Simen Brudvik and Djakovo Croatia agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.
