Market

Pablo Viudez asks to leave TSC

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad

Dragoljub Savić: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” TSC have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Loan watch

Stefan Mladenović wants to come home

“I did not go to IMT to sit and watch. I want to come back to TSC and fight for my place.” 3 appearances in 17 matches say the rest.

Squad

Luka Capan asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Market

The Bojan Dimoski talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. TSC know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

Loan watch

3 goals on loan for Sarpreet Singh

12 appearances at Wellington Phoenix and the goals keep coming. TSC are watching this more closely than the borrowing club would like.

Market

Milan Radin hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what TSC can pretend not to have heard.

Market

Szabolcs Mezei has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around TSC they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Squad

Vukašin Krstić stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Vukašin Krstić and TSC agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Loan watch

Aleksandar Stančić wants to come home

“I did not go to Spartak Subotica to sit and watch. I want to come back to TSC and fight for my place.” 3 appearances in 11 matches say the rest.

Squad

Pablo Viudez asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Market

Baptiste Roux linked with a move away

The name of Baptiste Roux keeps appearing in other people's back pages. TSC say nothing, which says plenty.

Match

TSC are in real trouble now

Position 14, 28 points, and a fixture list with fewer games left in it than excuses. The arithmetic is not cruel yet, but it has stopped being kind.

Market

Vladimir Tufegdžić asks to leave TSC

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad

Radivoj Bosić: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” TSC have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Squad

Bryan Cortés 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.

Squad

Mass Sise asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Market

Prestige Mboungou linked with a move away

The name of Prestige Mboungou keeps appearing in other people's back pages. TSC say nothing, which says plenty.

Match

TSC are in real trouble now

Position 14, 24 points, and a fixture list with fewer games left in it than excuses. The arithmetic is not cruel yet, but it has stopped being kind.

Market

Filip Jović hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what TSC can pretend not to have heard.

Market

Andrej Todoroski moves on

Partizan pay $320.0K, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.

Match

A bad afternoon for TSC against Radnik Surdulica

0-2 to Radnik Surdulica, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad

Mass Sise 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.

Squad

Costly mistake from Ivan Guteša

An error at the back is a moment; an error in goal is a goal. Ivan Guteša knows it, the crowd knew it instantly, and there was nobody behind him to make it anything else.

The terraces

The spotlight tightens on Slobodan Urošević

Every touch is being weighed now, in print and everywhere else. Some players grow into that and some are quietly ruined by it, and nobody knows which in advance.

Market

Prestige Mboungou linked with a move away

The name of Prestige Mboungou keeps appearing in other people's back pages. TSC say nothing, which says plenty.

From our football correspondent Steady

Squad

Bryan Cortés says TSC went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Market

Szabolcs Mezei asks to leave TSC

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Darvin Chávez

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Squad

Mass Sise asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Match

TSC draw a blank against Mladost Lucani

The crowd waited for a goal that never came. Mladost Lucani defended in numbers and left with what they came for, and the two sides could be playing still without troubling a scorer.

Loan watch

3 goals on loan for Vahid Gicić

15 appearances at Zeleznicar Pancevo and the goals keep coming. TSC are watching this more closely than the borrowing club would like.

Market

Pablo Viudez asks to leave TSC

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Match

4 matches without a win for TSC

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

Squad

The manager makes an example of Bryan Cortés

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Match

TSC and Radnicki Nis cancel each other out

Nil-nil, and few chances worth the name. Radnicki Nis came to defend and left with exactly what they came for.

Squad

Baptiste Roux asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Market

The Stefan Jovanović talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. TSC know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

Nikola Simić decides it from twelve yards

3 kept out in the shoot-out, and a stadium that will still be describing them in twenty years. A goalkeeper only needs one of these to be remembered forever.

Match

TSC through in the cup

A 0-0 win over Javor-Matis, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.

Match

No end in sight to TSC's wait for a win

5 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at TSC has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Slobodan Urošević

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Match

A bad afternoon for TSC against Novi Pazar

0-1 to Novi Pazar, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Market

Experience through the door at TSC

Ygor Vinicius arrives at 34 with nothing left to prove and plenty left to pass on. Legs are a young man's currency; knowing where to stand never ages.

Market

TSC bring in an old head

Darvin Chávez is 37 and has run out of things to prove. What he has left is where to stand, when to slow it down and what to say at half-time, and none of that is on a fitness chart.

Market

Experience through the door at TSC

Bryan Cortés arrives at 35 with nothing left to prove and plenty left to pass on. Legs are a young man's currency; knowing where to stand never ages.

Squad

Nemanja Petrović knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at TSC, and both men came out saying it was fine.
