Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Gabriel Pirani

14 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. San Diego Football Club lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Squad

Words exchanged at San Diego Football Club

Anders Dreyer and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Squad

Marcus Ingvartsen stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Marcus Ingvartsen and San Diego Football Club agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Oscar Verhoeven

“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.

The dugout

Pedro Soma has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at San Diego Football Club will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

Market

The Gabriel Pirani talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. San Diego Football Club know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

Player ratings

A brace, and Alex Mighten takes the afternoon — 8.58

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Alex Mighten provided it, and the 8.58 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Transfer targets

San Diego Football Club rebuffed over Quincy Butler

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. WSG Tirol have kept their man, and San Diego Football Club go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

Squad

Aníbal Godoy stands down from international duty

“158 caps is more than I ever expected, and it is time somebody else had them.” At 36 he is finished with his country and nowhere near finished with San Diego Football Club.

Market

Anders Dreyer raises the bar for San Diego Football Club

“I want to be playing for trophies while my legs still let me.” Nothing in that sentence is a transfer request, and nobody at San Diego Football Club heard it as anything else.

Squad

Jeppe Tverskov signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Jeppe Tverskov commits to San Diego Football Club for another 2 years.

Squad

Tempers go at San Diego Football Club

Elias Achouri 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.

Match

San Diego Football Club find a way past Vancouver Whitecaps

Vancouver Whitecaps made San Diego Football Club work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑1 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Market

Bryce Duke attracts admirers

The name of Bryce Duke has come up in conversations San Diego Football Club were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

The dugout

Ian Murphy 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.

In brief
