  1. Stayed on the bench while Zeidane Inoussa took the slot

    Minor
    Chosen instead
    Zeidane Inoussa was preferred — his higher squad-status priority.
    Cause
    His squad status would normally start, so the omission stings.

    Likely to settle unless repeated within the next few weeks.

  14. Unsettled by the squad wage hierarchy

    Contract request risk increased.
