Siebe van Langen 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 The request is on a desk at Twente, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad

Stav Lemkin stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Stav Lemkin and Twente agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad

Words exchanged at Twente

Ramiz Zerrouki 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

Myron Boadu 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.

Transfer targets

Utrecht tell Twente: Andile Furman is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

The dugout

No hiding place for Robbin Weijenberg

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

The dugout

Lars Unnerstall has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Twente will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

Market

The Ramiz Zerrouki question follows Twente around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Ramiz Zerrouki’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

Looking ahead

Lars Unnerstall goes back to face PSV

Every squad has one of these fixtures for somebody every season. This one is Lars Unnerstall’s: the club that knew him first, the supporters who will decide in the first minute whether to applaud, and Twente needing him to play as if none of it matters.

Squad

Ramiz Zerrouki 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 Twente this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Myron Boadu 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.

Transfer targets

Feyenoord tell Twente: Steven Bergwijn is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Squad

Siebe van Langen stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Siebe van Langen and Twente agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Market

Marko Pjaca is free to find somewhere else

“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at Twente has been clear about where Marko Pjaca stands, which is more than many ever get.

The dugout

Kristian Nökkvi Hlynsson has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Twente will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

The dugout

Myron Boadu asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Market

The Kristian Nökkvi Hlynsson story refuses to die

It has been denied twice and printed three times, which is the usual arithmetic. Until Kristian Nökkvi Hlynsson signs something — a contract at Twente or anywhere else — this column belongs to him.

Market

Twente put Naci Ünüvar up for sale

The list is a quiet document with a loud meaning. Naci Ünüvar may talk to anybody who asks, and everybody at the club understands what that means.

In brief
