Events

  1. Warned about his body language

    Moderate
    Cause
    The issue was less about ability and more about his reaction when things went wrong. His match rating of 6.0 weighed heavily in the talk.
    Outlook
    Manager intervention may be required if it persists.

  2. Away supporters were hostile

    Moderate
    Cause
    He drew sustained jeers from the away end.

  3. Reassured by the manager's half-time message

    Minor
    Cause
    The team were behind, and the manager needed a response. He does not always respond well to pressure, which softened the lift.
    Outlook
    Trend is improving — relationship should keep strengthening.

  4. Dropped to the bench as Salvatore Esposito was preferred

    Moderate
    Chosen instead
    Salvatore Esposito was preferred — his higher squad-status priority.
    Cause
    His squad status would normally start, so the omission stings.
    Outlook
    Manager intervention may be required if it persists.

  5. Anxious about his expiring contract

  6. Signed a new contract

    Moderate
    Cause
    He committed to the project on terms both sides could live with.

  7. Unsettled by the squad wage hierarchy

    Moderate
    Cause
    The squad's wage hierarchy is the underlying issue. The gap to the squad's top earners has become a daily reminder.
    Outlook
    Contract request risk increased.
