Failed medical for Sardorbek Salimov

The deal with Obod died in the treatment room. Nobody will say what was found and everybody in the game will find out by Friday.

The dugout15 Aug 2033

Amir Mirzaev says Qizilqum went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

No thanks: Amir Komilov rejects the move

Qizilqum had done everything except persuade the man himself. He stays at Nasaf, and the manager goes back to the drawing board with the money still in the bank.

Squad15 Aug 2033

Ilhomjon Vahobov 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 Qizilqum this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Transfer targets15 Aug 2033

Door shut on Sherzod Komilov

Qizilqum asked and Pakhtakor said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Match13 Aug 2033

A bad afternoon for Qizilqum against Kokand 1912

1‑2 to Kokand 1912, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Player ratings15 Aug 2033

Both jobs done by Mahmud Jo'raboyev — 6.79

A midfielder is measured on whether the team functions when he is on the pitch, which is nearly impossible to see and completely obvious in retrospect. 10 actions, 6.79, and a manager who will not be substituting him again in a hurry.

Squad15 Aug 2033

Qizilqum count the cost of losing Rustam Mirzaev

38 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

The dugout15 Aug 2033

The manager makes an example of Muhammadsafo Fozilov

“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.

Qizilqum agree $29.0K for Sardor Abdullaev

The clubs have shaken hands with Bunyodkor; the player has not yet. Personal terms are next, and personal terms are where more deals die than anybody prints.

Squad31 Jan 2033

A falling-out at Qizilqum

Mahmud Jo'raboyev and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad31 Jan 2033

Words at Qizilqum training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ilhomjon Vahobov 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.

AGMK tell Qizilqum: Otabek Abdullaev 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 dugout31 Jan 2033

The manager has not finished forgetting Bogdan Odinayev's mistake

Publicly it is behind everybody. It is not behind the man who picks the team, and the only place that shows is a team sheet. He will get another chance; he will get it in a match that matters less.

The dugout31 Jan 2033

No hiding place for Azamat Shomurodov

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