Player ratings

Nobody could get near Riccardo Orsolini

Successful dribbles: 34. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match

10 unbeaten for Bologna

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 10 matches without defeat is a foundation Bologna did not have in the autumn.

Squad

Riccardo Orsolini 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 Bologna this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market

Bologna may not be able to give Nicolò Cambiaghi what he wants

It is the most legitimate ambition in the sport and the hardest for most clubs to satisfy. Nicolò Cambiaghi wants continental football; whether Bologna can provide it is a question about the next two seasons, not about him.

Squad

Words at Bologna training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Remo Freuler 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.

Match

Thijs Dallinga sends Bologna past Hellas Verona

It finished 2‑1, and it was Thijs Dallinga’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Bologna.

Market

AS Roma come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Bologna did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Squad

Kevin Bonifazi gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Kevin Bonifazi has just signed for Bologna, and for once the answer mattered.

Squad

Jens Odgaard stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Jens Odgaard and Bologna agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Riccardo Orsolini 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 Bologna this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market

Kevin Bonifazi is a Bologna player again

He left as a boy and has come back still knowing where the away end is. Most signings have to be explained to a town; this one needed a photograph and nothing else.
