ND Gorica are in among the leaders
Position 3 and 36 points on the board. Nobody at the ground will say the word out loud yet, and everybody at the ground is thinking it.

Marko Čavara frozen out at ND Gorica
This is not rotation. Marko Čavara has not been in the manager's plans for some time, and nobody at ND Gorica is pretending otherwise.

Words exchanged at ND Gorica
Luka Štor 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.

Words at ND Gorica training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Denis Videnović 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.

Slovan Ljubljana take the points off ND Gorica
Beaten 1‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Žan-Luk Leban 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.

ND Gorica lose Robert Sesko
40 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.
