Marked for Ricardo Guzmán

The dugout

Walter Bou says O'Higgins 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.

Market

Only the photograph left for Felipe Ogaz

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Felipe Ogaz will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around O'Higgins the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad

A falling-out at O'Higgins

Felipe Faúndez and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

The dugout

Tomás Avilés 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

O'Higgins count the cost of losing Ricardo Guzmán

26 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

The dugout

O'Higgins keep their word to Luis Pavez Muñoz

Clubs make promises constantly and the page usually only hears about them when they are broken. This one was honoured, and the dressing room noticed that faster than any supporter did.

Squad

A step back for Benjamín Rojas at O'Higgins

Somebody has moved past him. It is not a dropping and it is worse than one, because a dropping is about a Saturday and this is about where he stands.

Market

The Thiago Vecino talk will not go away

Another week, another link, another denial nobody quite believes. O'Higgins know the market decides these things, not the back pages — but the back pages are louder.

Market

Still no ink between O'Higgins and Felipe Ogaz

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at O'Higgins, another week without a signature from Felipe Ogaz.

Market

Felipe Ogaz is on his way

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

Squad

Omar Carabalí 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 O'Higgins this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Real improvement from Joaquín Escobar at O'Higgins

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

Squad

O'Higgins count the cost of losing Ricardo Guzmán

56 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

Squad

A late step up for Diego Carreño

At 24 the improving is meant to be over. It is not: 3 points better than the mark taken at the start of the year, which is the sort of thing that happens to players who take the boring parts of the job seriously.

The dugout

No hiding place for David Fernández

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to David Fernández, and the manager let it.
