Player ratings

Nobody could get near Jakob Breum

Successful dribbles: 25. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Match

No end in sight to Go Ahead Eagles's wait for a win

4 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Go Ahead Eagles has to find a result from somewhere.

Squad

Tempers go at Go Ahead Eagles

Stefán Ingi Sigurðarson 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.

Squad

A row about effort at Go Ahead Eagles

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Jerry St. Juste was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

The dugout

No hiding place for Jerry St. Juste

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Jerry St. Juste, and the manager let it.

Match

A bad afternoon for Go Ahead Eagles against Heerenveen

0‑2 to Heerenveen, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

The dugout

Robin Clasie: “No excuses”

“I could talk about decisions and I could talk about luck. I will not. We lost.” The manager, 0‑2, and a press conference that lasted four minutes.

Squad

Jerry St. Juste has had enough of the noise

The ambition story running backwards, and the one nobody tells: a footballer who wants a smaller ground, fewer cameras and a crowd that does not turn. It is not weakness and it is rarely reported as anything else.

Looking ahead

Joris Kramer faces his old club

NEC next, and one man in the Go Ahead Eagles dressing room knows their training ground better than his own. The reception will tell him what they thought of him.

Match

Go Ahead Eagles do the business in Europe

1‑1. Continental football is where a club finds out what it actually is, and Go Ahead Eagles came through the finding-out well against Racing Genk.

Squad

Jari De Busser keeps Go Ahead Eagles in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 7 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Player ratings

Jakob Breum was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 28. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Squad

A row about effort at Go Ahead Eagles

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Jerry St. Juste was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Match

Go Ahead Eagles come up short against Sparta Rotterdam

Sparta Rotterdam left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad

Words exchanged at Go Ahead Eagles

Joris Kramer and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

The dugout

Robin Clasie answers for it

“The supporters are entitled to be angry. So am I. We will put it right.” 0‑1, a manager saying the necessary things, and a dressing room that heard a different version of them.

The dugout

Jerry St. Juste gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Jerry St. Juste is on it.

The dugout

Luca Plogmann 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.

Market

Luca Plogmann puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Go Ahead Eagles, and it is not being withdrawn.

Market

AZ come back empty-handed

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

Transfer targets

No thanks: Josh Sargent rejects the move

Go Ahead Eagles had done everything except persuade the man himself. He stays at Toronto FC, and the manager goes back to the drawing board with the money still in the bank.

Squad

Words exchanged at Go Ahead Eagles

Stefán Ingi Sigurðarson and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Sondre Brunstad Fet

Go Ahead Eagles asked and Bodo/Glimt said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Match

Go Ahead Eagles get the job done against Utrecht

A 2‑0 win over Utrecht, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Jakob Breum

Successful dribbles: 19. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Player ratings

One of those days for Dean James

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.12, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

Player ratings

Stefán Ingi Sigurðarson in the eights

A performance of 8.12 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.
