  1. Asked the manager for a private conversation

    Moderate
    Cause
    He is unhappy about his playing time. His relationship with the manager is steady but tense.
    Outlook
    Manager intervention may be required if it persists.
  2. Clashed with Eduardo Quaresma over training standards

    Minor
    Cause
    The disagreement started because they judged training effort very differently. It played out on the training ground in front of the rest of the squad.
    Outlook
    Likely to settle unless repeated within the next few weeks.
  3. Unsettled by the squad wage hierarchy

    Moderate
    Cause
    The squad's wage hierarchy is the underlying issue. The gap to the squad's top earners has become a daily reminder.
    Outlook
    Contract request risk increased.
  4. Stayed on the bench all match

    Minor
    Cause
    The bench was built around different match options.
    Outlook
    Likely to settle unless repeated within the next few weeks.
  5. Looks overawed by the elite-club standards

    Moderate
    Cause

    Minor
    Cause

    Moderate
    Chosen instead

    Cause
    His squad status would normally start, so the omission stings.
    Outlook
    Likely to settle unless repeated within the next few weeks.
  8. Joining one of the elite clubs in the game

  9. Struggling to settle into the squad

    Serious
    Cause

    Outlook
    Settling-in period is still under way.
  10. Sudden media glare after the high-profile move

    Minor
    Cause
    Media noise around the player is shaping this. It played out in the media rather than internally.
    Outlook
    Expectations may build after a stand-out moment.
