Nobody could get near Jakob Nyland Ørsahl

Successful dribbles: 26. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match29 Aug 2026

4 matches without a win for Aalesund

The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Aalesund are no longer polite ones.

Boardroom31 Aug 2026

Erik Frøysa signs for Valerenga while still at Aalesund

The rules permit it and it stings anyway. Erik Frøysa has agreed terms with Valerenga for the summer, and until then he pulls on this shirt as a player who has already chosen his next one.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Aalesund

Uba Charles 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.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Thomas Drage 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.

Davíð Snær Jóhannsson stands above it all

Some games turn on a moment; this one turned on a man. 7.95 on the card, and the Aalesund support went home talking about one name.

Match29 Aug 2026

Aalesund and IK Start take a point apiece

It finished 1‑1, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Håkon Hammer is still paying for one afternoon at Aalesund

Nobody will confirm this and nothing else explains the last month of selections. A costly error buys a player a period of being second choice that is always longer than the error was.

Squad31 Aug 2026

Davíð Snær Jóhannsson has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Aalesund will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

Player ratings3 Aug 2026

Jakob Nyland Ørsahl goes up and wins it — 7.66

A defender on the scoresheet, which happens rarely enough that everybody in the ground remembers who took the corner. 1 for him, and a mark of 7.66 for the rest of it.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Uba Charles signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Uba Charles commits to Aalesund for another 4 years.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Uba Charles 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 Aalesund this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Player ratings3 Aug 2026

Both jobs done by Paul Ngongo — 7.06

A midfielder is measured on whether the team functions when he is on the pitch, which is nearly impossible to see and completely obvious in retrospect. 13 actions, 7.06, and a manager who will not be substituting him again in a hurry.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Words at Aalesund training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Elias Hagen 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.

Squad3 Aug 2026

Tor Erik Larsen 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.

Player ratings3 Aug 2026

Nobody could get near Henrik Melland

Successful dribbles: 16. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Market3 Aug 2026

Nobody at Aalesund has picked up the phone to Uba Charles

49 months to run and not a word offered. A club that lets the calendar negotiate for it usually ends up losing to the calendar.

Match1 Aug 2026

Aalesund and Valerenga take a point apiece

It finished 2‑2, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.
