From our football correspondent Upbeat

Market

Béla Fejér has said yes to Câmpulung Muscel

The last thing about a transfer that is still about the player is his signature on his own terms, and it is there. Sepsi OSK have lost him in all but the paperwork.

Squad

Andrei Vlad stands alone

7 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

Transfer targets

Kevin Andrade turns down Sepsi OSK

The clubs had agreed and the player had not. A snub, and a public one: Zenit keep him, and the supporters here are left wondering what he had heard about the place.

Squad

Words at Sepsi OSK training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Oskar Pietuszewski 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.

Squad

A falling-out at Sepsi OSK

Darius Oroian and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Loan watch

Mátyás Bartha counts the days

“I watch every Sepsi OSK game from here. That says everything about where my head is.” The loan at CS Afumați runs its course, but his heart never made the trip.

Match

Sepsi OSK see off ASA Târgu Mureș

Three points for Sepsi OSK, 1‑0 the final word against ASA Târgu Mureș in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Squad

Máté Herbák wants to go home

“I have tried. I have really tried, and every day I wake up in the wrong place.” Nobody at Sepsi OSK can coach that out of a man, and nobody there is pretending to.

The dugout

Ionut Dragusin: “That is the standard”

“That is what I want every week. Not the result, the way they went about it.” The manager, after 1‑0, already talking about the next one.

Match

Sepsi OSK out of the cup

CFR Cluj ended it 0‑2. The season narrows to the league now, and everyone in the ground knew it before the final whistle.

Player ratings

Samuele di Benedetto, 21, steals the show — 8.22

Marked 8.22 at 21, in a side that makes no allowances for age. He did not need any, and he looked the least nervous man on the pitch.

Market

Sepsi OSK say no — this time

The offer from Serikspor for Szilárd Gyenge was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Market

Hunor Gedő has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Sepsi OSK they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Transfer targets

No thanks: Roman Zobnin rejects the move

Sepsi OSK had done everything except persuade the man himself. He stays at Spartak Moscow, and the manager goes back to the drawing board with the money still in the bank.

Squad

Words at Sepsi OSK training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Oskar Pietuszewski 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.

Transfer targets

Deadline beats Sepsi OSK to Stefan Višić

The clock did what Metaloglobus Bucharest would not, and ended it. Supporters who watched the countdown will spend the next window doing it again.

Transfer targets

Olimpia tell Sepsi OSK: Tiago Caballero is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

The terraces

Sepsi OSK supporters have found a favourite in Darius Oroian

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 23-year-old it feels ownership of. Darius Oroian has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Player ratings

Oskar Pietuszewski beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 40. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Match

Still nobody has beaten Sepsi OSK

The unbeaten run reaches 12. Some of them were wins and some were escapes, but a side that refuses to lose is a side other dressing rooms talk about.

Market

Nacho Heras has said yes to Câmpulung Muscel

The last thing about a transfer that is still about the player is his signature on his own terms, and it is there. Sepsi OSK have lost him in all but the paperwork.

Market

Sepsi OSK say no — this time

The offer from CSC Șelimbăr for Dimitri Oberlin was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Market

Joeri de Kamps 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 Sepsi OSK, and it is not being withdrawn.

Transfer targets

The paperwork begins on Stefan Višić

A medical, a signature, a shirt held up in front of a sponsor’s board. Sepsi OSK have done the hard part with Metaloglobus Bucharest, and the part that remains is the part supporters actually see.

Boardroom

Window shuts: 3 in, 2 out at Sepsi OSK

The deadline has passed and the squad is the squad. 3 arrived, 2 left, and everything else printed about this club last month was a rumour that stayed one.

Transfer targets

No thanks: Angelo Cocian rejects the move

Sepsi OSK had done everything except persuade the man himself. He stays at FC Bihor Oradea, and the manager goes back to the drawing board with the money still in the bank.

Squad

Oskar Pietuszewski 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.

Market

Not going: Denis Haruţ stays at Sepsi OSK

“I know what people will say. I know what I want, and it is here.” Câmpulung Muscel had the fee agreed and the shirt ready; they did not have the player, and now they will not.

Market

Darius Oroian 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 Sepsi OSK, and it is not being withdrawn.

Match

Whatever happens, Sepsi OSK do not lose

11 games unbeaten now. Some were earned and some were survived, but a habit is forming — and habits are the hardest thing in football to play against.

Market

Politehnica Iași come back empty-handed

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

Player ratings

No sign of nerves from Oskar Pietuszewski at 18 — 8.28

The hardest thing about being 18 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Oskar Pietuszewski did not need any: 8.28, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

Squad

Oskar Pietuszewski 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.

Transfer targets

Door shut on Sebastian Mailat

Sepsi OSK asked and Botosani 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

Sepsi OSK see off CS Afumați

Three points for Sepsi OSK, 2‑1 the final word against CS Afumați in a contest settled by the finer margins.

The terraces

One of their own: Oskar Pietuszewski

He is 18 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.

Player ratings

Both of them Alerrandro's — 8.63

2 goals, and the second was the one that settled it. Marked 8.63, and he could have had a third with better luck at the near post.

Market

Béla Fejér agrees terms with Câmpulung Muscel

The clubs have settled the fee and he has settled his wages. What remains is a medical and a photograph, and around Sepsi OSK people have started saying his name in the past tense.

Match

10 unbeaten for Sepsi OSK

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 10 matches without defeat is a foundation Sepsi OSK did not have in the autumn.

Market

Rafael Assis hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Sepsi OSK can pretend not to have heard.

Market

Eyes on Denis Haruţ again

The phone has started ringing about Denis Haruţ again, and this time the name on the line is Câmpulung Muscel. Sepsi OSK are listening politely and promising nothing.

Squad

Tempers go at Sepsi OSK

Andrei Vlad 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

Oskar Pietuszewski falls out with a teammate over standards

Sepsi OSK rebuffed over Dorin Codrea

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Universitatea Cluj have kept their man, and Sepsi OSK go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Match

Sepsi OSK find a way past CSC Dumbrăvița

CSC Dumbrăvița made Sepsi OSK work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑1 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Player ratings

Samuele di Benedetto, 21, plays like he has been here for years — 7.75

A mark of 7.75 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 21-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Match

9 unbeaten for Sepsi OSK

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 9 matches without defeat is a foundation Sepsi OSK did not have in the autumn.

The dugout

Hunor Gedő says Sepsi OSK went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Market

Hunor Gedő is on his way

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

Transfer targets

Alerrandro due for a Sepsi OSK medical

Everything agreed with CSKA Moscow, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Squad

Words exchanged at Sepsi OSK

Andrei Vlad 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.

Denis Haruţ asks to leave Sepsi OSK

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Player ratings

Oskar Pietuszewski beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 30. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Match

Whatever happens, Sepsi OSK do not lose

8 games unbeaten now. Some were earned and some were survived, but a habit is forming — and habits are the hardest thing in football to play against.

Squad

The season belongs to Adnan Aganović

An individual honour is a strange thing in a team game, and the best of them are never argued with. He has had the sort of year that ends with his name being read out, and Sepsi OSK have had the benefit of it.

Squad

A falling-out at Sepsi OSK

Andrei Vlad and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad

A row about effort at Sepsi OSK

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

Transfer targets

Sepsi OSK rebuffed over Cristian Măgeruşan

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. ASA Târgu Mureș have kept their man, and Sepsi OSK go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Andrei Vlad

“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

No place for Darius Oroian in the plan

“The manager did not use many words, and he did not need to.” Darius Oroian has his answer from Sepsi OSK; what he does with it is the next window’s story.

Match

Boris Cmiljanić breaks FC Bihor Oradea hearts

Some goals win a match and some take one off somebody else. Boris Cmiljanić scored in the 89th minute, FC Bihor Oradea had already begun thinking about the journey home, and Sepsi OSK took the lot.

Player ratings

No sign of nerves from Samuele di Benedetto at 21 — 7.83

The hardest thing about being 21 in a senior side is that nobody makes allowances. Samuele di Benedetto did not need any: 7.83, and he looked the most comfortable man on the pitch.

Match

Sepsi OSK get the job done against FC Bihor Oradea

A 2‑1 win over FC Bihor Oradea, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Sepsi OSK supporters have found a favourite in Samuele di Benedetto

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 21-year-old it feels ownership of. Samuele di Benedetto has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

The dugout

Joeri de Kamps has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Sepsi OSK will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

The dugout

Joonas Tamm does not fit this one

Ninety specific minutes wanted a different sort of player, and the manager picked one. He is not out of form and he is not in the side, and both are true.

Oskar Pietuszewski was unplayable

Samuele di Benedetto in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Sepsi OSK this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Oskar Pietuszewski 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.

Sepsi OSK lose Dino Skorup

Rafael Assis stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Rafael Assis and Sepsi OSK agree another 1 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Wages swallow 92% of the Sepsi OSK income

Every club pays most of what it earns to its players. Paying nearly all of it is a different arrangement, and it has ended the same way every time it has been tried.

Squad

A row about effort at Sepsi OSK

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

Squad

Tempers go at Sepsi OSK

Adnan Aganović 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.

Match

Sepsi OSK come up short against Concordia Chiajna

Concordia Chiajna left with the points after a 1‑2 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

The dugout

Andrei Vlad 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.

The dugout

Ionut Dragusin faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Ionut Dragusin after 1‑2, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.

The dugout

Carl Davordzie has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Sepsi OSK will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Dino Skorup

Successful dribbles: 10. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

The dugout

Joonas Tamm does not fit this one

Ninety specific minutes wanted a different sort of player, and the manager picked one. He is not out of form and he is not in the side, and both are true.

Market

The Moses Mawa talk will not go away

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

Match

Sepsi OSK through in the cup

A 2‑1 win over Concordia Chiajna, and the draw for the next round can be watched with some interest for once.

Player ratings

Mihai Bancu scores twice — 8.77

Two goals and a mark of 8.77 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Player ratings

Adnan Aganović, 39, rolls back the years — 7.87

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Sepsi OSK they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Squad

A falling-out at Sepsi OSK

Andrei Vlad and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad

Oskar Pietuszewski 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.

The dugout

Sepsi OSK keep their word to Oskar Pietuszewski

Clubs make promises constantly and the page usually only hears about them when they are broken. This one was honoured, and the dressing room noticed that faster than any supporter did.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Mihai Bancu

“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.

Looking ahead

A reunion for Nacho Heras

He used to wear the other shirt. On Saturday he plays against Steaua Bucharest in this one, and whatever he says this week about it being just another game will be untrue.

Squad

Samuele di Benedetto remains an outsider

A year in and the city has not opened up, the language has not come, and lunch is eaten alone more often than anybody at Sepsi OSK would admit. It shows on Saturdays.

Market

The Andrei Vlad story refuses to die

It has been denied twice and printed three times, which is the usual arithmetic. Until Andrei Vlad signs something — a contract at Sepsi OSK or anywhere else — this column belongs to him.

Market

Talks stall between Sepsi OSK and Toni Gulam

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

The dugout

Carl Davordzie 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 Carl Davordzie has written the date down.

Adnan Aganović, 39, rolls back the years — 7.85

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 7.85 at 39, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Squad

A move Toni Gulam would have made for nothing

There is a version of every career where the player ends up somewhere he chose rather than somewhere that chose him. Toni Gulam is living that version at Sepsi OSK, and it tends to show in the first month.

Squad

Andrei Vlad in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Sepsi OSK this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

Sepsi OSK see off Corvinul Hunedoara

Three points for Sepsi OSK, 1‑0 the final word against Corvinul Hunedoara in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Boardroom

104% of the income goes out in wages at Sepsi OSK

Every club in football pays most of what it earns to its players. Paying nearly all of it is a different arrangement, and it has ended the same way every time somebody has tried it.

Squad

Máté Herbák wants to go home

“I have tried. I have really tried, and every day I wake up in the wrong place.” Nobody at Sepsi OSK can coach that out of a man, and nobody there is pretending to.

Loan watch

Dragos Nedelcearu has seen enough of Dinamo Bucharest

“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 Sepsi OSK, and 1 appearances in 5 say he has earned the hearing.

The dugout

Samuele di Benedetto is still paying for one afternoon at Sepsi OSK

Nobody will confirm this and nothing else explains the last month of selections. A costly error buys a player a period of being second choice that is always longer than the error was.

Olimpia Satu Mare punish Sepsi OSK for switching off

2 goals to the good, and then a slow surrender of everything that had been earned. Oskar Pietuszewski will not be the one blamed for it, but nobody at Sepsi OSK escapes the conversation that follows a collapse like this.

Player ratings

Oskar Pietuszewski, 18, plays like he has been here for years — 7.99

A mark of 7.99 means one thing beside a twenty-nine-year-old's name and something else entirely beside a 18-year-old's. Nobody at the ground needed telling which this was.

Player ratings

Age has not caught Adnan Aganović yet — 8.23

Player ratings

The game went through Boris Cmiljanić — 6.82

Marked 6.82 on 9 actions at both ends of the pitch. Midfielders like this get described as unspectacular by people who have never tried to play against one.

Match

Oskar Pietuszewski rescues a point for Sepsi OSK

It needed Oskar Pietuszewski to find the net to bring anything home at all: 2‑2 against Olimpia Satu Mare, and half the dressing room will call it a point won.
