Squad2 Apr 2029

Words exchanged at Persita

Ramón Bueno 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.

Squad2 Apr 2029

Javlon Guseynov 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.

Match31 Mar 2029

Persik take the points off Persita

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

The dugout2 Apr 2029

Rachmat Jaya answers for it

“The supporters are entitled to be angry. So am I. We will put it right.” 0‑1, a manager saying the necessary things, and a dressing room that heard a different version of them.

Squad2 Apr 2029

Jin Yucheng named in the team of the month

A month is long enough that nobody gets in by accident. Jin Yucheng is in the division's best eleven for it, which is a quieter compliment than an award and a more reliable one.

The dugout2 Apr 2029

No hiding place for Ahmad Nur Hardianto

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

Boardroom2 Apr 2029

Persita counting the cost

The accounts make uncomfortable reading. Wages first and ambition second is the order of business at Persita now.

Squad2 Apr 2029

A step back for Roei Yizhak at Persita

Somebody has moved past him. It is not a dropping and it is worse than one, because a dropping is about a Saturday and this is about where he stands.

Market2 Apr 2029

Yardan Yafi told to find a new club

“They were honest with me, and I would rather know.” Yardan Yafi has been informed he is not in the manager's thinking at Persita.

Market29 Jan 2029

Persita say no — this time

The offer from Dewa United for Rifky Dwi Septiawan was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Squad29 Jan 2029

Tempers go at Persita

Igor Rodrigues 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.

Squad29 Jan 2029

Words at Persita training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Javlon Guseynov 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 dugout29 Jan 2029

Jack Brown 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.

The dugout29 Jan 2029

Esal Sahrul has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Persita 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.

Market29 Jan 2029

The Éber Bessa talk will not go away

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

The dugout29 Jan 2029

Wahyu Prasetyo asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Match29 Jan 2029

Persita in the hunt for Europe

Position 4, 59 points, and a run-in that decides whether next season has Thursday nights in it. Nobody is calling it a race yet, which is what people say during one.

Squad29 Jan 2029

The training reports on Rifky Dwi Septiawan are not good

A bad Saturday is forgiven; a bad Tuesday is chosen. Standards have slipped and in a building where everybody watches everybody, it has been noticed.

In brief
