Match

Still nobody has beaten OB

The unbeaten run reaches 6. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Adam Sørensen

“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.

Squad

Markus Jensen signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Markus Jensen commits to OB for another 4 years.

Squad

No place for Rasmus Falk on the big day

He found out with everybody else, an hour before kick-off, from a sheet of paper on a wall. Nobody at OB pretended it was anything other than a decision about him.

Match

Honours even between OB and FC Copenhagen

1-1, and both dressing rooms will call it two points lost. A draw that asked plenty of questions and answered none of them.

Market

The Adam Sørensen talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. OB know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

Squad

Leandro Basán 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.

Match

OB draw a blank against AGF

The crowd waited for a goal that never came. AGF defended in numbers and left with what they came for, and the two sides could be playing still without troubling a scorer.

Squad

Iván Bella knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at OB, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market

Jay-Roy Grot is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at OB is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Loan watch

Marcus McCoy has seen enough of AGF

“I am grateful for the games, but I did not become a footballer to be somebody else's spare part.” He wants to be at OB, and 2 appearances in 10 say he has earned the hearing.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Rasmus Falk

“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.

Match

OB find a way past SonderjyskE

SonderjyskE made OB work for it, but the scoreboard read 2-0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Squad

The armband comes off Rasmus Falk

OB will explain it as a decision about the team, and it may well be one. A dressing room has never once read it that way.

Squad

Anssi Suhonen takes the armband

It is a strip of cloth and it decides nothing on a Saturday. It still tells the dressing room exactly whose opinion the manager values, which is the whole point of it.

Asked to play a role that is not his, or taken off before the hour once too often — Seyed Mehdi Hosseini has let it be known that he does not like the way OB are using him. Managers hear this long before the press does.

Chastening afternoon for OB

A 1-5 beating by Brondby was the sort of result that empties a stadium long before the final whistle.

Squad

5 past Viljar Myhra

Whether it was the goalkeeper or the ten in front of him is the argument that will fill every conversation in town this week. 4 saves does not settle it either way.

Both sides expect a conversation in the coming days. OB will name a price, and everything after that is arithmetic.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Carlos Alberto

“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.

Match

OB and Brondby take a point apiece

It finished 1-1, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Squad

Leandro Basán asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Match

FC Copenhagen take the points off OB

Beaten 0-1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Squad

Jakob Bonde 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

The Fiete Arp talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. OB know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

Squad

Theo Sander is the hero from the spot

A shoot-out is remembered by its ending, and this one ends with Theo Sander: 3 kept out, and a set of supporters who will describe every one of them for the next twenty years.

Match

OB through in the cup

A 2-2 win over Viborg, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.

Squad

Ramón Córdoba 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.

Match

OB and AGF take a point apiece

It finished 1-1, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Squad

Fiete Arp is off the mark for OB

The first one is the one every signing is asked about until it arrives. It has arrived, and he can stop being asked.

Squad

Jakob Bonde knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at OB, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Match

OB get the job done against SonderjyskE

A 1-0 win over SonderjyskE, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Max Ejdum

“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.

Market

Jay-Roy Grot linked with a move away

The name of Jay-Roy Grot keeps appearing in other people's back pages. OB say nothing, which says plenty.

Squad

Fiete Arp stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Fiete Arp and OB agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Viljar Myhra

“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.

Match

OB and Randers take a point apiece

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at OB, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Market

The clock runs on Jakob Bonde's contract

24 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.

Market

OB bring in an old head

Iván Bella is 37 and has run out of things to prove. What he has left is where to stand, when to slow it down and what to say at half-time, and none of that is on a fitness chart.

Market

Experience through the door at OB

Leandro Basán arrives at 36 with nothing left to prove and plenty left to pass on. Legs are a young man's currency; knowing where to stand never ages.

Match

OB and Aalborg cancel each other out

Nil-nil, and few chances worth the name. Aalborg came to defend and left with exactly what they came for.
