Squad

Real improvement from Lucas Daubenfeld at Feirense

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Lucas Daubenfeld is 22, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Squad

Khaly 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.

Squad

Tempers go at Feirense

Diogo Pereira 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.

Market

Mika has one foot out of the door

Terms are settled between the clubs and the rest is paperwork and a photograph. Around Feirense they have already started talking about him in the past tense.

Boardroom

Mika has agreed to leave Feirense for nothing

He will play here until the summer and then walk out of the door for free, having already signed elsewhere. Supporters will manage the first part of that sentence; it is the second they will struggle with.

Squad

Tempers go at Feirense

João Graça 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.

Market

Kevin Quejada moves on

Estoril Praia pay $720.0K, and the deal is done. The number reads well on a balance sheet; whether it reads well on the pitch is next season's question.

Market

Desmond Nketia attracts admirers

The name of Desmond Nketia has come up in conversations Feirense were not part of. Nothing formal, nothing signed — but nothing about it accidental either.

Squad

Pedrinho signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Pedrinho commits to Feirense for another 3 years.

Squad

A one-man rearguard from André Picornell

There were 9 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.

Match

No mercy from Feirense

Porto B will want this one forgotten quickly: 3‑0, every duel lost, and a long ride home. Feirense were ruthless in the way good sides are ruthless.

Player ratings

A brace, and Manuel Mendonça takes the afternoon — 8.78

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Manuel Mendonça provided it, and the 8.78 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Squad

Tempers go at Feirense

Manuel Mendonça 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

Words at Feirense training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Diogo Pinto 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 terraces

Feirense supporters have found a favourite in André Picornell

There is a particular warmth a ground reserves for a 23-year-old it feels ownership of. André Picornell has it now, and everything he does for the rest of his time here will be measured against the goodwill he was handed for free.

Match

Porto B blown away early

There is a particular helplessness in conceding 2 times before the twentieth minute. Porto B tried to reorganise, Feirense did not allow it, and the result was written long before it was confirmed.

Squad

Diogo Pereira 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.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Diogo Pinto

Successful dribbles: 14. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.
