Squad

Dejan Ilic damages knee ligaments — 20 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 20 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Match

6 matches without a win for IMT

The run now stands at 6, and the questions being asked around IMT are no longer polite ones.

Player ratings

Jérémy Manzorro, 34, rolls back the years — 7.82

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 7.82 at 34, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Squad

Jo Coppens 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 IMT this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

A bad afternoon for IMT against Vojvodina

1‑3 to Vojvodina, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad

No hiding place for Nikola Glišić

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

In brief

  • Squad Too much change too quickly at IMT
  • Player ratings Luka Luković runs at them all day
  • Market The window shut and Charly Keita is still in the building

Squad

Dejan Ilic damages knee ligaments — 27 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 27 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Market

Radnicki 1923 come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and IMT did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Match

The wait goes on for IMT

5 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Squad

Jérémy Manzorro 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 IMT this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

4 matches without a goal for IMT

The chances are being made and something is happening between the making and the finishing. 4 matches now, and the anxiety in the ground arrives a little earlier every week.

Squad

Words at IMT training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Chirri 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.

Squad

David Button 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.

Match

Cukaricki take the points off IMT

Beaten 0‑1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Market

Eyes on Andrej Milanović again

The phone has started ringing about Andrej Milanović again, and this time the name on the line is Skonto. IMT are listening politely and promising nothing.
