Market

Cole Mrowka asks to leave General Caballero

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad

Cole Mrowka says General Caballero went back on their word

“I was told what my role would be, and I signed on that basis. It has not happened.” A grievance with a date attached is the hardest kind to settle.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Rodriguinho

“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.

Junior Vargas knocks on the manager's door

Boardroom

General Caballero keep producing them

6 graduates from an academy now rated 9 out of 20. A club this size does not survive any other way, and every name on that list is known in the town.

Squad

A one-man rearguard from Mauro Rodas

There were 7 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Inquest at General Caballero

The manager kept them in and said what needed saying. A response is expected on Saturday, and if it does not come the questions move upstairs.

Squad

The armband comes off Jonathan Roa

General Caballero will explain it as a decision about the team, and it may well be one. A dressing room has never once read it that way.

A long bet from General Caballero on Cole Mrowka

He is 20, and nobody at General Caballero signed him for this season. Deals like this are judged in four years, by people who may not still be in the building.

Squad

Somebody is after Carlos Guerreño’s shirt

A new face in his position, and Carlos Guerreño suddenly has to win back what he thought he owned. General Caballero have promised nothing — clubs rarely do at this stage.

Squad

The manager comes out for Marcelino Ñamandú

Public backing, and the sort that costs a manager something if it turns out to be wrong. Marcelino Ñamandú has been told in front of everybody that the shirt is his.
