Squad

Javi Manquillo damages knee ligaments — 25 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 25 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Match

Jagiellonia through in the cup

A 4‑3 win over Polonia Warszawa, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.

Match

Jagiellonia turn it around against Polonia Warszawa

Going 2 down does something to a side, and what it usually does is finish them. Not here. Jagiellonia rebuilt the afternoon goal by goal, and Polonia Warszawa had no answer to any of it.

Match

Jagiellonia leave it late against Legia

Ninety minutes of very little, and then everything at once. The winner arrived in the 87th, and Legia spent what remained of the match appealing to the referee rather than chasing the ball.

Squad

A day Nik Prelec will not forget

3 goals in one game. The first was taken well, the second was taken greedily, and by the third the crowd were simply waiting for him to get the ball.

Squad

The step up is real for Jeremy Agbonifo

At 21 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

Match

Jagiellonia find a way past Legia

Legia made Jagiellonia work for it, but the scoreboard read 1‑0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Squad

Words at Jagiellonia training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Bartłomiej Wdowik 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.

Player ratings

A masterclass from Aleksandar Ćirković

Marked 8.28 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

Squad

Javi Manquillo damages knee ligaments — 65 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 65 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Market

Jagiellonia turn down Pogoń Siedlce for Hampus Finndell

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad

Jeremy Agbonifo 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 Jagiellonia this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

Jagiellonia come up short against GKS Katowice

GKS Katowice left with the points after a 0‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Match

GKS Katowice end the Jagiellonia run at 5

Every run ends on an afternoon somebody had marked down as routine. This one went 5 matches, which is long enough that a town had stopped counting, and short enough that it will remember exactly who stopped it.

Squad

Words at Jagiellonia training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Andy Pelmard 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.

Squad

Appearance number 100 for Nik Prelec

100 games in this shirt, through managers and relegations and everything else. Service like it is disappearing from the game and the crowd knows what it is watching.

The dugout

No hiding place for Taras Romanczuk

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Taras Romanczuk, and the manager let it.

The dugout

Sławomir Abramowicz is still paying for one afternoon at Jagiellonia

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.

Squad

Taras Romanczuk: 12 seasons and counting

413 appearances across 12 seasons in one shirt. Careers like that are not built on purpose any more, and Jagiellonia know exactly what they have.

Market

Jagiellonia turn down KAMAZ for Kajetan Szmyt

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad

Jesús Imaz signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Jesús Imaz and Jagiellonia agree another 2 years.

Squad

Jesús Imaz 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 Jagiellonia this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

A row about effort at Jagiellonia

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Bartłomiej Wdowik was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Viktor Bjarki Daðason

Jagiellonia asked and FC Copenhagen said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Match

Sergio Lozano sends Jagiellonia past Wisła Płock

It finished 1‑0, and it was Sergio Lozano’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Jagiellonia.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Nik Prelec

Successful dribbles: 18. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Market

Pogoń Grodzisk Mazowiecki join the queue for Dimitris Rallis

Add another name to the list: Pogoń Grodzisk Mazowiecki have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Dimitris Rallis. The answer from Jagiellonia has not changed — yet.
