Boldizsár Rab breaks a bone — 37 days out
Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 37 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.
Market15 Nov 2027
“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Vasas can pretend not to have heard.

Olivér Balázs: 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.” Vasas have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.
Match13 Nov 2027
The wait goes on for Vasas
4 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Nobody could get near Milán Tóth
Successful dribbles: 23. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Tempers go at Vasas
Patrick Iyinbor was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Šime Gržan falls out with a teammate over standards
The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.
Match5 Dec 2026
Ask anyone on the way out what separated the sides and you will get one name: José Barragán. 1‑0 against Puskas Akademia, and the applause at the whistle was mostly his.

Marked 8.01 — 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.
Squad7 Dec 2026
The manager makes an example of Sergio Vergara
“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.
Player ratings7 Dec 2026
Successful dribbles: 16. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

János Uram 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.
Match14 Nov 2026
Fehervar left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.
Loan watch16 Nov 2026
“I watch every Vasas game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at Bekescsaba runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.

“I have given this everything, but my family is not here and neither am I, not really.” A footballer can be coached out of bad form. Nobody has ever been coached out of this, and Vasas know it.

Words at Vasas training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Šime Gržan 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.

No end in sight to Vasas's wait for a win
6 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Vasas has to find a result from somewhere.
Squad12 Oct 2026
“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.

Botond Baráth dropped after a run of poor form
The one version of being left out a player cannot argue with, and the one he takes worst. Somebody else has been better and the team sheet says so, in public, every week until it changes.
Match22 Aug 2026
Nil-nil, and few chances worth the name. Bekescsaba came to defend and left with exactly what they came for.
