Sergio López 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 The request is on a desk at Darmstadt 98, and it is not being withdrawn.

Words exchanged at Darmstadt 98

Hiroki Akiyama 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.

Words at Darmstadt 98 training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Luca Sirch 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.

Darmstadt 98 are still strangers to each other

6 new signings in one window. Every one may be an upgrade and the side can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild the verdicts never mention.

Luca Sirch 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.

Marcel Schuhen knocks on the manager’s door

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Marcel Schuhen trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

Yosuke Furukawa 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 Yosuke Furukawa is on it.

The Killian Corredor story refuses to die

It has been denied twice and printed three times, which is the usual arithmetic. Until Killian Corredor signs something — a contract at Darmstadt 98 or anywhere else — this column belongs to him.

Bartosz Białek has been promised minutes

A conversation in the manager’s office, and a commitment that came out of it. Promises like that are cheap to make and expensive to break, and Bartosz Białek has written the date down.
