Marked for Marcel Herrmann

Squad30 Jul 2035

The knee: Armando Shashoua out for 85 days

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

Boardroom30 Jul 2035

Pressure builds in the FAC Wien boardroom

The directors have stopped offering the manager public warmth. In football that is usually the stage before the short statement.

Match28 Jul 2035

9 matches without a win for FAC Wien

The run now stands at 9, and the questions being asked around FAC Wien are no longer polite ones.

Squad30 Jul 2035

49 days out for Dmytro Semenov after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. FAC Wien will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

The dugout30 Jul 2035

Jackson Muleka: 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.” FAC Wien have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market30 Jul 2035

Marcel Herrmann puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at FAC Wien, and it is not being withdrawn.

Transfer targets30 Jul 2035

Mathys Plessis is a medical away from FAC Wien

The deal with Rapid Wien is done in every sense but the one that puts him on the pitch. Nothing goes wrong at this stage, except on the occasions when it does.

Squad30 Jul 2035

Jackson Muleka 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 FAC Wien this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Boardroom30 Jul 2035

6 academy players handed senior numbers at FAC Wien

The morning the pathway stops being a brochure and becomes a team sheet. Most of them will not be here in three years; all of them have already done the hard part, which was getting to today.

Squad9 Jul 2035

Armando Shashoua damages knee ligaments — 106 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 106 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.

Match9 Jul 2035

Every point is an argument now for FAC Wien

Position 16 and 18 points, and the table gets read bottom-up in this part of town. The calendar has stopped being a schedule and started being a countdown.

Squad9 Jul 2035

A fracture rules Dmytro Semenov out for 72 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason FAC Wien will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Market9 Jul 2035

Only the photograph left for Daniel Hülsenbusch

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Daniel Hülsenbusch will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around FAC Wien the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Market9 Jul 2035

Mattias Goossens 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 FAC Wien can pretend not to have heard.

Squad9 Jul 2035

Tempers go at FAC Wien

Andreas Angelidis 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.

Transfer targets9 Jul 2035

Austria Wien tell FAC Wien: Tomislav Glavan is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Boardroom9 Jul 2035

FAC Wien cannot sign anybody

The embargo bars a fee being paid for a player, whatever the manager thinks the squad needs. Every rumour printed about this club between now and its lifting is a rumour about a deal that cannot happen.

Squad9 Jul 2035

Louis Podolski 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.
