Marked for Immanuel Hess

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

A fracture rules Pablo Santiago out for 16 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Castellón will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Match

7 matches without a win for Castellón

The run now stands at 7, and the questions being asked around Castellón are no longer polite ones.

Player ratings

The game went through Iñigo Córdoba — 6.72

Marked 6.72 on 16 actions at both ends of the pitch. Midfielders like this get described as unspectacular by people who have never tried to play against one.

Squad

Tempers go at Castellón

Marc Bartra 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

Real improvement from Immanuel Hess at Castellón

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Immanuel Hess is 21, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Squad

Words at Castellón training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Awer Mabil 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.

Match

Honours even between Castellón and Granada

1‑1, and both dressing rooms will call it two points lost. A draw that asked plenty of questions and answered none of them.

Player ratings

Diego Barri could not find anything

4.54. Every footballer has these and most of them happen away from a full ground; his did not, and he will be aware of that all week.

Player ratings

Nobody could get near Awer Mabil

Successful dribbles: 11. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

A fracture rules Pablo Santiago out for 60 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Castellón will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Squad

Home is on Frank Tattum's mind

“Some mornings you wake up and you are still a long way from everything you know.” It is not the football and it never was; Castellón are dealing with a man who wants a different country.

Match

Castellón and Mirandés take a point apiece

It finished 1‑1, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Player ratings

Raúl Sánchez 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.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

Pablo Santiago breaks a bone — 118 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 118 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad

Dean Huijsen says Castellón 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.

Player ratings

Israel Suero, 33, rolls back the years — 7.86

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 7.86 at 33, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Match

5 matches without a win for Castellón

The run now stands at 5, and the questions being asked around Castellón are no longer polite ones.

Squad

Frank Tattum is a better footballer than he was

Not a run of form — an actual step up, held for months. At 21 he is doing things at this level he could not do at the start of the season, and the coaching staff will tell you exactly which of them.

Squad

Marc Bartra 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 Castellón this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

Israel Suero rescues a point for Castellón

It needed Israel Suero to find the net to bring anything home at all: 1‑1 against Valladolid, and half the dressing room will call it a point won.

Market

Álvaro Martín told to find a new club

“They were honest with me, and I would rather know.” Álvaro Martín has been informed he is not in the manager's thinking at Castellón.

Market

Castellón bring in an old head

Adam Mesjasz is 34 and has run out of things to prove. What he has left is where to stand, when to slow it down and what to say at half-time, and none of that is on a fitness chart.

Market

Immanuel Hess comes home

The shirt still fits. Immanuel Hess is back at Castellón, and half the ground remembers him in these colours already. Some signings need selling to the town; this one sold itself.

Squad

Immanuel Hess gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Immanuel Hess has just signed for Castellón, and for once the answer mattered.

Squad

Adam Jakobsen has improved at 28, which nobody expected

Careers are supposed to plateau and then decline, and the players who ignore that are always the ones who were listening on the training ground. 3 points of it, over months, at an age where the direction normally only goes one way.

Market

The shop window has Pape Sy in it

Castellón have let the market know Pape Sy can be had. No price in the advert, but everyone in the trade knows roughly what it says.
