Pedro Ataíde, 21, plays like he has been here for years — 7.98
A mark of 7.98 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 21-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Konstantinos Petrou 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.

The formation has left Pedro Ataíde behind
Every shape has positions in it and this one does not have his. Agia Napa will either change the shape, change his job, or change his club, and he is waiting to hear which.

Talks stall between Agia Napa and Bruno Silva
“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.
