  1. Left out as Xaver Schlager was preferred

    Moderate
    Chosen instead
    Xaver Schlager was preferred — his higher squad-status priority.
    Cause
    His squad status would normally start, so the omission stings.
    Outlook
    Likely to settle unless repeated within the next few weeks.
  2. Worried by competition from a new signing Stiven Palomeque

  4. Reassured by a calm full-time message

    Minor

    Trend is improving — relationship should keep strengthening.
