Words at Liepaja training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Irad Mshindi 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.

Jelgava paid $330.0K and Liepaja took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.
Liepaja asked and Partizan said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.
