Squad

Erik Godoy in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Argentinos Juniors this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Federico Mancuello 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.

The dugout

No hiding place for Matías Giménez Rojas

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

Squad

A divided room at Argentinos Juniors

3 groups that do not mix, and 2 players belonging to none of them. Nothing here can be fined or dropped, which is why it lasts longer than any row that can.

Market

Francisco Álvarez linked with a move away

The name of Francisco Álvarez keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Argentinos Juniors say nothing, which says plenty.

The dugout

When it matters, Jeremías Correale plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

The dugout

Facundo Jainikoski has been promised minutes

A conversation in the manager’s office, and a commitment that came out of it. Promises like that are cheap to make and expensive to break, and Facundo Jainikoski has written the date down.

Loan watch

5 goals on loan for Maximiliano Romero

6 appearances at Colo-Colo and the goals keep coming. Argentinos Juniors are watching this more closely than the borrowing club would like.

Squad

Facundo Carrizo wants out of the dugout

“I did not sign to watch. Nobody does.” The oldest complaint in the game, and Argentinos Juniors will have to answer it with minutes or with a move.

In brief
