Match

7 unbeaten for River Plate

Hard to beat is not the same as winning, but 7 matches without defeat is a foundation River Plate did not have in the autumn.

Squad

Mateusz Kochalski 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.

Loan watch

Dilan Gerez wants to come home

“I did not go to Ceará to sit and watch. I want to come back to River Plate and fight for my place.” 0 appearances in 5 matches say the rest.

Match

Honours even between River Plate and Rosario Central

2-2, and both dressing rooms will call it two points lost. A draw that asked plenty of questions and answered none of them.

Market

Panserraikos are about to pick up the phone

A conversation is coming this week. River Plate will put a number on him, and from there it stops being football and becomes arithmetic.

Squad

Eduardo Vega stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Eduardo Vega and River Plate agree another 3 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad

Iván Ojeda asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.

Squad

The manager comes out for Fernando

Public backing, and the sort that costs a manager something if it turns out to be wrong. Fernando has been told in front of everybody that the shirt is his.

Squad

Dilan Gerez is finding his feet at Ceará

The language is coming and there is somebody to talk to in the dressing room. A footballer who feels at home plays like one, and it never shows up in a scouting report.

Market

Sanchez hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Ceará can pretend not to have heard.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Iván Ojeda

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Squad

Somebody is after Wendel Silva’s shirt

A new face in his position, and Wendel Silva suddenly has to win back what he thought he owned. Ceará have promised nothing — clubs rarely do at this stage.
