Events

10
  1. Stayed on the bench all match

    Minor
    Cause
    The bench was built around different match options.
    Outlook
    Likely to settle unless repeated within the next few weeks.
  2. Settling well into the dressing room

    Minor
    Cause
    A strong training-ground partnership is behind this. The bond between them was already strong, so the morale hit should be limited.
    Outlook
    Settling-in period is still under way.
  3. Made meaningful progress with the local language

    Minor
    Cause
    His grasp of the language is now strong enough for ordinary dressing-room chat.
  4. Worried by competition from a new signing Robbie McGrath

    Minor
    Cause
    The newcomer is on a much larger wage deal. He was already short on minutes before the signing arrived.
    Outlook
    Contract request risk increased.
  5. Worried by competition from a new signing Stefan Waine

    Minor
    Cause
    The signing was bought with a similar squad-status tier in mind. The newcomer is on a much larger wage deal.
    Outlook
    Contract request risk increased.
  6. Worried by competition from a new signing Will Henderson

    Moderate
    Cause
    The signing was bought with a similar squad-status tier in mind. The new arrival has visibly higher ability.
    Outlook
    Contract request risk increased.
  7. Returned to full training after injury

    Moderate
    Cause
    The medical team cleared him, but the staff are protecting him from a rushed comeback.
  8. Luke Supyk, a compatriot, joined the squad

    Moderate
    Cause
    Shared nationality and language helped this take root. The language gap is making integration harder.
    Outlook
    Settling-in period is still under way.
  9. Struggling to settle into the squad

    Moderate
    Cause
    The settling-in period at a new club is the bigger picture. The language gap is making integration harder.
    Outlook
    Settling-in period is still under way.
  10. No natural role in the current formation

    Serious
    Cause
    His preferred position simply isn't in the current shape.
