The terraces

Anger at Amora spills outside the ground

It has stopped being a mood in the stands and started being something organised. Boards can ignore a bad atmosphere for a long time; they cannot ignore this stage of it for very long at all.

Boardroom

The scrutiny sharpens at Amora

Nobody upstairs has said anything, which is the loudest thing they could do. Results buy silence in this game; the account at Amora is running low.

Squad

A falling-out at Amora

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

Squad

Juninho 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

Talks stall between Amora and Cláudio Silva

“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.

Squad

Buby Katty wants to go home

“I have given this everything, but my family is not here and neither am I, not really.” A footballer can be coached out of bad form. Nobody has ever been coached out of this, and Amora know it.

Squad

Martim Ribeiro is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 20 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Squad

A falling-out at Amora

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

Squad

Amora are still strangers to each other

22 new signings in one window. Every one may be an upgrade and the side can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild the verdicts never mention.

Squad

Mhleli Mabuza 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.

Looking ahead

A reunion for Guilherme Pinheiro

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

Market

Still no ink between Amora and Vasco Paciência

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Amora, another week without a signature from Vasco Paciência.

Squad

Buby Katty signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Buby Katty and Amora agree another 3 years.

Squad

Mhleli Mabuza wants to go home

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

Squad

A row about effort at Amora

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

Transfer targets

Amora try to borrow Gabriel Bontempo

Santos have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.

Transfer targets

A loan move for Brandão is in the works

Amora have made the call to Coritiba. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

Squad

Buby Katty 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 Amora would admit. It shows on Saturdays.
