The terraces

The mood at Amora has turned into something else

Supporters who sing when it goes badly are supporters. Supporters who gather afterwards are a problem, and everybody inside the building knows which of the two this now is.

Squad

The step up is real for Miguel Gouveia

At 19 he is doing things this season that he could not do last season, and doing them every week. Form comes and goes; this has stayed long enough to be called something else.

Squad

A falling-out at Amora

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

Squad

Tempers go at Amora

Vinicius 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

Iago falls out with a teammate over standards

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.

Transfer targets

Vitoria Guimaraes tell Amora: Juan Diego Castillo is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Market

Talks stall between Amora and Joanderson

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

Squad

The formation has left Joey Brandt behind

Every shape has positions in it and this one does not have his. Amora will either change the shape, change his job, or change his club, and he is waiting to hear which.

Transfer targets

Amora try to borrow Jorge Karseladze

Rio Ave have been asked whether they would lend him. Loans are agreed quickly or not at all, and this one will be one or the other by the weekend.

Market

48 months and counting on Joey Brandt

Still no offer on the table, and Joey Brandt’s deal keeps shrinking. In boardroom language, silence this long stops being an oversight and starts being an answer.

Squad

The division's best last weekend was a Amora man

It is a small honour and it is not nothing: somebody watched every match in the division and decided that Joanderson was the best thing in any of them.

Market

Daniel Ferrão is free to find somewhere else

“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at Amora has been clear about where Daniel Ferrão stands, which is more than many ever get.

In brief

The Amora Post

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

A row about effort at Amora

Somebody said out loud what several people thought about how hard another man trains, and Iago was in the middle of it. The one dressing-room argument that is genuinely about football.

Looking ahead

Amora face Lusitano Évora in the game that matters most

Two sides from the bottom of the table, three points, and an afternoon that will be described afterwards as a relegation decider by whoever loses it.

Market

Amora buy the years ahead of Daniel Ferrão

He is 20, and the scouting reports agree on the only line that matters: the ceiling. Signings like this are lottery tickets written by professionals.

Squad

Tempers go at Amora

Densel Liyun 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 dugout

Jose Castro is still paying for one afternoon at Amora

Nobody will confirm this and nothing else explains the last month of selections. A costly error buys a player a period of being second choice that is always longer than the error was.

Market

Still no ink between Amora and Daniel Ferrão

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Amora, another week without a signature from Daniel Ferrão.

In brief
