Squad

Toufik Moussaoui stands alone

8 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

Squad

Toufik Moussaoui 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 Paradou this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

Abderrahmane Bacha’s goal not enough for Paradou

Abderrahmane Bacha scored, and precious little else went right: 1‑2 to ES Mostaganem, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

The dugout

The manager’s verdict

“That is on me. I pick the team and I picked wrong.” Managers say that when they mean it and when they need to be seen to, and after 1‑2 Nabil Feghouli left the room before anybody could ask which.

The dugout

Mohamed Islam Abdelkader 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.

Squad

Words at Paradou training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Anes Abed 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.

Squad

Abderrahmane Bacha is off the mark for Paradou

The first one is the one every signing is asked about until it arrives. It has arrived, and he can stop being asked.

The dugout

Moncef Bisker gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Moncef Bisker is on it.

The dugout

No place in the plan for Lalaina Rafanomezantsoa

The manager wanted a different profile for this opponent, which is a real football reason and no consolation. He did nothing wrong and he did not play.

From our football correspondent Crisis

Squad

Toufik Moussaoui stands alone

6 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

Player ratings

A defender's goal wins it for Paradou — 7.85

1 for Taha Yassine Tahar, marked 7.85, and a centre-half's name in the part of the report he normally only reaches by mistake. He will not be allowed to forget it in the dressing room for a month.

Squad

Words exchanged at Paradou

Toufik Moussaoui 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

Real improvement from Amine Galou at Paradou

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Amine Galou is 20, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Match

JS Kabylie take the points off Paradou

Beaten 1‑2, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

The dugout

Nabil Feghouli faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Nabil Feghouli after 1‑2, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.

Player ratings

Mustapha Soukkou runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 14. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

Anes Abed 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

Houssem Tarzout 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 Paradou Post

From our football correspondent Steady

The terraces

A $170.0K sale, and a town that did not want it

Mohammed Kerroum has gone, the accounts have $170.0K in them, and the supporters have the feeling of having been sold something themselves. Good business and a good decision are not always the same thing.

Market

MC Alger come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Paradou did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Transfer targets

Mohamed Zaalouk due for a Paradou medical

Everything agreed with Al Ahly, everything agreed with the player; a doctor is the only person left to persuade. The photograph is a day or two away.

Squad

Toufik Moussaoui 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 Paradou this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market

Business is business: Mohammed Kerroum goes

JS Kabylie paid $170.0K and Paradou took it, which is the whole story in one sentence. The longer version involves a wage budget and will be told all season.

Transfer targets

Mamelodi Sundowns tell Paradou: Jayden Adams is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Market

ASO Chlef join the queue for Youcef Belkaid

Add another name to the list: ASO Chlef have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Youcef Belkaid. The answer from Paradou has not changed — yet.

Transfer targets

A loan move for Risen Albert is in the works

Paradou have made the call to University of Pretoria. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

Squad

A row about effort at Paradou

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Anes Abed was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.
