Shunta Araki 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 Vegalta Sendai this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Words at Vegalta Sendai training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Renji Matsui 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.

The small margins put Vegalta Sendai out

Out, 1‑2 to Kashima Antlers, and the long argument about which of the small moments decided it. The league is all there is now, and everybody knows it.

No hiding place for Akihiro Hayashi

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

Neuton dropped after a run of poor form

The one version of being left out a player cannot argue with, and the one he takes worst. Somebody else has been better and the team sheet says so, in public, every week until it changes.
