Match

Grazer AK are top

49 points and nobody above them. The word is not being said around the ground yet, and it is being thought in every seat.

Squad

Filip Stojilković signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Filip Stojilković commits to Grazer AK for another 4 years.

Squad

Tempers go at Grazer AK

Nikolas Veratschnig was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Squad

Words at Grazer AK training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Jensen Weir 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

When it matters, Luca Kronberger plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Christopher Olsa

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Market

The Filip Stojilković talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. Grazer AK know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

The dugout

The manager makes Julius Kade a promise

Nothing in writing and nothing in public: a word about playing time, given face to face at Grazer AK. The team sheets over the next month will show whether it was worth having.

The dugout

Marcel Junuzovic 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 Grazer AK, and both men came out saying it was fine.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Fran Vélez

100 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Grazer AK lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Squad

Filip Stojilković 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 Grazer AK this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Words at Grazer AK training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Sota Kitano 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

A promise honoured at Grazer AK

Something was said to Jakob Meierhofer and then it happened. In this industry that passes for remarkable, and the dressing room noticed faster than any supporter could.

The dugout

Somebody else is better right now than Marcus Maier

The team sheet says it in public every week until it changes. The only version of being dropped a footballer cannot argue with, and the one he takes hardest.

Squad

Marcel Junuzovic stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Marcel Junuzovic and Grazer AK agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Match

Grazer AK share the spoils with Blau-Weiß Linz

A 1‑1 draw with Blau-Weiß Linz leaves the dressing room somewhere between relief and regret.

The dugout

Jürgen Heil has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Grazer AK will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

The dugout

Marcus Maier 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 Grazer AK, and both men came out saying it was fine.
