The run at home goes on for Lech
17 matches unbeaten here. Every visiting manager is asked about it in the week before, which is precisely why it keeps going.

A fracture rules Michał Nalepa out for 21 days
Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Lech will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Lech turn down Gornik Leczna for Filip Jagiełło
The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Ali Gholizadeh 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 Lech can pretend not to have heard.

Luis Palma runs at them all day
Successful dribbles: 24. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Terry Yegbe signs on for more
“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Terry Yegbe and Lech agree another 4 years.

Mikael Ishak 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 Lech this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Graduation day at Lech
6 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

Words at Lech training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Robert Gumny 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.
