  1. Stayed on the bench all match

    Minor
    Cause
    The current formation has no natural role for him.
    Outlook
    Likely to settle unless repeated within the next few weeks.
  2. Criticised again for the same issue

    Moderate
    Cause
    The manager has flagged this same issue inside the last month. Staff had already warned him about this in the last few weeks.
    Outlook
    Repeated incidents may damage dressing-room status.
  3. Reassured by a calm full-time message

    Minor
    Cause
    The team had won, and the manager wanted to reinforce the standards. He does not always respond well to pressure, which softened the lift.
    Outlook
    Trend is improving — relationship should keep strengthening.
  4. Stayed on the bench all match

    Minor
    Cause
    The bench was built around different match options.

  5. Made his senior debut for the club

  6. Criticised over his pressing work

    Moderate

    The criticism focused on missed pressing triggers and slow recovery runs. His match rating of 6.0 weighed heavily in the talk.

    Manager intervention may be required if it persists.

    Minor
    Cause
    The moment called for a quiet show of support. He does not always respond well to pressure, which softened the lift.

  9. Clashed with Klaus Winkler over training standards

    Minor

    Likely to settle unless repeated within the next few weeks.
