Squad

The knee: Viktor Sobol out for 18 days

18 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Probiy lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

The dugout

Maksym Hirnyi frozen out at Probiy

This is not rotation. Maksym Hirnyi has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Probiy is pretending otherwise.

Squad

A falling-out at Probiy

Ihor Huk and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad

Volodymyr Savchyn falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

The dugout

No hiding place for Saša Nardić

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

The dugout

Roman Borysevych knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Roman Borysevych trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

Market

Talks stall between Probiy and Vladyslav Babanin

“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.

Squad

Saša Nardić: “I am not a substitute”

“I have done everything asked of me in training and it has not changed a thing on a Saturday.” The most familiar complaint in football, and one Probiy will have to answer with minutes or with a transfer.

Market

Probiy put Leon Madej up for sale

The list is a quiet document with a loud meaning. Leon Madej may talk to anybody who asks, and everybody at the club understands what that means.

Squad

Viktor Sobol damages knee ligaments — 25 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 25 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.

The dugout

Volodymyr Savchyn: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” Probiy have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

The dugout

Maksym Kulish frozen out at Probiy

This is not rotation. Maksym Kulish has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at Probiy is pretending otherwise.

Squad

Words exchanged at Probiy

Ihor Huk and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad

Words at Probiy training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Vladyslav Felipovych 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.

The dugout

Volodymyr Ivanychuk knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Probiy, and both men came out saying it was fine.
