Squad

A fracture rules Rustam Vazitdinov out for 47 days

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

Match

Sillamae Kalev win it in stoppage time

The board had gone up, the arguing had started, and then the ball was in the net in the 94th minute. FCI Tallinn will replay every second of the added time for a week.

Market

Ken Kallaste hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Sillamae Kalev can pretend not to have heard.

Player ratings

A brace, and Joonas Zenjov takes the afternoon — 8.97

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Joonas Zenjov provided it, and the 8.97 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Squad

Nikita Kait keeps Sillamae Kalev in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 6 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Squad

Rauno Kait signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Rauno Kait and Sillamae Kalev agree another 4 years.

Squad

Words at Sillamae Kalev training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Sondre Stokke 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.

Match

Sillamae Kalev see off FCI Tallinn

Three points for Sillamae Kalev, 2‑1 the final word against FCI Tallinn in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Match

Another one collected away from home

3 on the bounce on the road for Sillamae Kalev. The coaches leave early, arrive at unlovely grounds in the dark, and keep coming home with three points.

Squad

Rustam Vazitdinov breaks a bone — 54 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 54 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad

Tempers go at Sillamae Kalev

Nikita Kait 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.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Zeki Aliev

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Loan watch

Karl Kruglov counts the days

“I watch every Sillamae Kalev game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at Tammeka runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.

Match

Joonas Zenjov rescues a point for Sillamae Kalev

It needed Joonas Zenjov to find the net to bring anything home at all: 2‑2 against Levadia, and half the dressing room will call it a point won.

Squad

Liliu Klavan stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Liliu Klavan and Sillamae Kalev agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad

Rustam Vazitdinov breaks a bone — 61 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 61 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad

Nikita Kait 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 Sillamae Kalev this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Sondre Stokke 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.

Squad

Rustam Vazitdinov breaks a bone — 75 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 75 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad

Tempers go at Sillamae Kalev

Rustam Vazitdinov 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.

Squad

Vlasi Dmitrijev gets it from the manager

“Nobody here is above being told.” It was not said with a name attached, but the dressing room can count, and so can everybody who was listening.

Squad

Joonas Zenjov has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Sillamae Kalev 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 Karl Kait conversation is coming

Everyone has stopped pretending: FCI Tallinn will make the call about Karl Kait this week. Sillamae Kalev have a number in mind, and the number is not shy.
