Squad

A fracture rules Dragos Burca out for 103 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Pandurii will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Squad

Bogdan Mihaila pulls a muscle — 14 days out

The injury that keeps coming back, keeps being rushed back from, and quietly costs more careers than the dramatic ones. 14 days is the estimate; the honest figure depends on whether anybody is patient.

Squad

Bogdan Mihaila 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 Pandurii this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

No end in sight to Pandurii's wait for a win

6 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Pandurii has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad

Bogdan Mihaila 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 Pandurii this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

The goals have deserted Pandurii

3 matches, no goals, and a training ground that has tried everything. It will end — droughts always do — but nobody at Pandurii can tell you which week it ends in.

Loan watch

Ciprian Hagi has seen enough of Dinamo Bucharest

“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at Pandurii, and 0 appearances in 9 say he has earned the hearing.

Squad

No hiding place for Bogdan Mihaila

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

Match

A bad afternoon for Pandurii against Universitatea Craiova

0‑1 to Universitatea Craiova, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Player ratings

Adrian Coman could not have asked for more on his first appearance — 6.68

Debuts are survived rather than enjoyed. This one was enjoyed: 6.68, 1 goals, and a manager already being asked whether he starts again next week.

Market

Mlada Boleslav come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Pandurii did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Market

Monterrey join the queue for Adrian Man

Add another name to the list: Monterrey have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Adrian Man. The answer from Pandurii has not changed — yet.

Market

Adrian Man raises the bar for Pandurii

“I want to be playing for trophies while my legs still let me.” Nothing in that sentence is a transfer request, and nobody at Pandurii heard it as anything else.

Squad

Tempers go at Pandurii

Bogdan Mihaila 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.

Match

A bad afternoon for Pandurii against Petrolul

2‑3 to Petrolul, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad

No hiding place for Dragos Burca

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

Market

Still no ink between Pandurii and Jo Coppens

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

Squad

Words at Pandurii training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ovidiu Deac 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.
