Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 40 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

A $1.8M sale, and a town that did not want it
Timo Muzie has gone, the accounts have $1.8M in them, and the supporters have the feeling of having been sold something themselves. Good business and a good decision are not always the same thing.

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Flamarion 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.

Flamarion in the eights

In brief
- Squad Home is on Recife's mind
- Squad Defences have started doubling up on Flamarion
