Squad

Tempers go at Casa Pia

Abdu Conté 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

Casa Pia lose Kélian Nsona

17 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.

Squad

Words at Casa Pia training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Mauro Couto 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

Cassiano 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

Nacional join the queue for Ivan Mandić

Add another name to the list: Nacional have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Ivan Mandić. The answer from Casa Pia has not changed — yet.

Market

No place for Kaíque Rocha in the plan

“The manager did not use many words, and he did not need to.” Kaíque Rocha has his answer from Casa Pia; what he does with it is the next window’s story.

Match

Henrique Araújo rescues a point for Casa Pia

It needed Henrique Araújo to find the net to bring anything home at all: 1‑1 against Benfica, and half the dressing room will call it a point won.

Market

Cassiano placed on the list

Casa Pia have made Cassiano available for transfer. A career at this club is over in all but paperwork.

Player ratings

Mauro Couto runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 10. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

David Sousa signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” David Sousa commits to Casa Pia for another 3 years.

Squad

Jérémy Livolant 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 Casa Pia this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Words at Casa Pia training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. David Sousa 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

The manager makes an example of Korede Osundina

“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

Nobody at Casa Pia has picked up the phone to Patrick Sequeira

48 months to run and not a word offered. A club that lets the calendar negotiate for it usually ends up losing to the calendar.

Market

Casa Pia and Pedro Mendes are talking past each other

“There is a gap, and pretending there is not helps nobody.” Neither side has moved, and the calendar is working for exactly one of them.

Squad

David Sousa 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

Kaíque Rocha wants European nights

The general version of this complaint is that a player wants more. The specific version names the thing: he wants to walk out under floodlights against clubs from other countries, and he has stopped pretending otherwise.
