Match

Every point is an argument now for Utenis

Position 6 and 16 points, and the table gets read bottom-up in this part of town. The calendar has stopped being a schedule and started being a countdown.

The dugout

Vikintas Klimavicius keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Utenis may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Market

Tomas Barauskas 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 The request is on a desk at Utenis, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad

Ignas Girdvainis 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 Utenis this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Words at Utenis training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Aaron McGowan 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

Karolis Girdvainis signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Karolis Girdvainis and Utenis agree another 3 years.

The dugout

No hiding place for Rokas Satkus

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

The dugout

Luka Stevanović knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Luka Stevanović trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

Market

Utenis put Mateusz Mikulski up for sale

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

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

Dajan Ponjević 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.

Market

Still no ink between Utenis and Linas Jankauskas

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Utenis, another week without a signature from Linas Jankauskas.

Squad

Karolis Girdvainis stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Karolis Girdvainis and Utenis agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.
