Marked for Rémi Himbert

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad6 Sep 2038

A knee injury of the worst kind for Fábio Carvalho

53 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Club Brugge lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Market6 Sep 2038

Club Brugge turn down Zulte Waregem for Christos Tzolis

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Player ratings6 Sep 2038

Age has not caught Félix Lemaréchal yet — 9.36

At 35 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 9.36 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Squad6 Sep 2038

Joaquin Seys has been here 14 seasons

440 appearances across 14 seasons in one shirt. Nobody builds a career like that on purpose any more; it happens to a certain kind of footballer at a certain kind of club.

Squad6 Sep 2038

Rémi Himbert keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Club Brugge may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Market6 Sep 2038

Jean-Paul Bayiha has one foot out of the door

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

Squad6 Sep 2038

Christos Tzolis 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 Club Brugge this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match4 Sep 2038

Club Brugge find a way past KV Oostende

KV Oostende made Club Brugge work for it, but the scoreboard read 3‑2 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Player ratings6 Sep 2038

A masterclass from Rodrigo Mora

Marked 9.17 — the sort of number a correspondent writes down twice to be sure. Everything he tried came off, and what he did not try was not worth trying.

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Squad17 Nov 2036

A knee injury of the worst kind for Thibeau Kestemont

82 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Club Brugge lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Match17 Nov 2036

Club Brugge up to position 1

39 points on the board and a place in the leading group. Nobody at the ground is saying the word out loud yet.

Squad17 Nov 2036

Xander Vandenberghe breaks a bone — 64 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 64 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Player ratings17 Nov 2036

Age has not caught Christos Tzolis yet — 8.37

At 34 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 8.37 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Squad17 Nov 2036

Tempers go at Club Brugge

Michy De Ketelaere 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.

Squad17 Nov 2036

Words at Club Brugge training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Christos Tzolis 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.

Market17 Nov 2036

Charles Vertonghen is on his way

The clubs have agreed terms, and what remains is formality: a medical, a photograph, a signature. Nobody at Club Brugge is pretending he will be back in the shirt.

Match15 Nov 2036

Another one collected away from home

3 on the bounce on the road for Club Brugge. The coaches leave early, arrive at unlovely grounds in the dark, and keep coming home with three points.

Player ratings17 Nov 2036

Nobody could get near Félix Lemaréchal

Successful dribbles: 16. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.
