Market

Panagiotis Liagas 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 Levadiakos can pretend not to have heard.

Match

7 matches without a win for Levadiakos

The run now stands at 7, and the questions being asked around Levadiakos are no longer polite ones.

Squad

A one-man rearguard from Lucas

There were 7 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Market

Business is business: Ognjen Ožegović goes

Panathinaikos paid $920.0K and Levadiakos took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

Squad

Tempers go at Levadiakos

Guillermo Balzi 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

Zois Karargyris is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 19 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Match

Ognjen Ožegović’s goal not enough for Levadiakos

Ognjen Ožegović scored, and precious little else went right: 1‑2 to Asteras, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Guillermo Balzi

Successful dribbles: 19. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

Santiago Paz 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.

In brief
