Player ratings

Nobody could get near Yago Pikachu

Successful dribbles: 33. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

A move Marcelo 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. Marcelo is living that version at Remo, and it tends to show in the first month.

Market

Leonel Picco has his eye on Europe

It is not a grievance and it is not a demand: he wants to play continental football, and he has stopped hiding it. Whether Remo can give him that is a question about the club, not about him.

Squad

Tempers go at Remo

Leonel Picco 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

Yago Pikachu is not the player he was

It happens to all of them and it is still the hardest paragraph a local paper has to write. 34 years old, 3 points down on where he was, and a body that has started charging interest on a career.

Squad

Words at Remo training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Léo Lang 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 dugout

No hiding place for Warleson

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

Match

Ferroviária take the points off Remo

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

The dugout

Renato Batista: “No excuses”

“I could talk about decisions and I could talk about luck. I will not. We lost.” The manager, 0‑1, and a press conference that lasted four minutes.

In brief
