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

Words at Inter Allies training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Shedrack Asiegbu 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.
Form comes and goes; this has not gone. Adhiel Carrillo is 22, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.
Ibrahim Aboul-Yazid 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.

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.

“Thirty minutes, door closed, everything said. We shook hands after.” Whatever was in the room stayed in the room, and Wasiu Falolu trained the next morning like a man with less to carry.

In brief
SquadWasiu Falolu falls out with a teammate over standards
Josef Martínez 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.

Unai Bilbao falls out with a teammate over standards
