A knee injury of the worst kind for Giorgi Chakvetadze
19 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Sheffield lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.
Match1 Sep 2046
Sheffield turn it around against Bolton Wanderers
Going 2 down does something to a side, and what it usually does is finish them. Not here. Sheffield rebuilt the afternoon goal by goal, and Bolton Wanderers had no answer to any of it.
Squad3 Sep 2046
A fracture rules Filip Mladenovic out for 41 days
Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Sheffield will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.
Squad3 Sep 2046
George Gryba stays put
“The easiest signature of my career.” George Gryba and Sheffield agree another 2 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.
Squad3 Sep 2046
Real improvement from Jonathan Hamilton at Sheffield
Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Jonathan Hamilton is 19, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.
Match1 Sep 2046
No clean sheets in sight for Sheffield
5 games now with at least two against. The back line has been rearranged, the goalkeeper has been backed publicly, and the goals keep going in anyway.
Match1 Sep 2046
Sheffield find a way past Bolton Wanderers
Bolton Wanderers made Sheffield work for it, but the scoreboard read 3‑2 at the end and the table does not ask how.
Player ratings3 Sep 2046
Ninety minutes of Enrique Reyes at his very best
Marked 8.82. Players have careers without a single afternoon like this in them, and he has just had one in front of everybody at Sheffield.

One of those days for Christopher Spencer
There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.10, and no argument anywhere in the ground.
In brief
- Player ratings Nobody could get near Nicolai Lindstrom
- Boardroom $466.7K a year onto the Sheffield books
- Market Mathieu Adam told to find a new club
