From our football correspondent Upbeat

Market

Levi asks to leave ABC

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

Squad

Ronaldy says ABC 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.

Match

ABC see off Santa Cruz

Three points for ABC, 2-1 the final word against Santa Cruz in a contest settled by the finer margins.

Squad

Luiz Fernando 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

Natanael finally opens his account

He wheeled away like a man who had been carrying it for months, because he had. ABC have their signing off the mark and one press-conference question retired.

Squad

Enzo knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at ABC, and both men came out saying it was fine.

In brief

  • The terraces The press cannot get enough of Natanael
  • The terraces Lima has his own song now

Match

Chastening afternoon for ABC

A 1-4 beating by Grêmio was the sort of result that empties a stadium long before the final whistle.

Market

Gui Siqueira 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 ABC can pretend not to have heard.

Squad

Randerson: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” ABC have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Match

No end in sight to ABC's wait for a win

5 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at ABC has to find a result from somewhere.

Boardroom

ABC still without a manager

10 days since the seat came open, a list of names doing the rounds, and nobody has signed anything. Every week this drags on the shortlist gets shorter.

Squad

Wellington Carvalho 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.

Boardroom

Inquest at ABC

The manager kept them in and said what needed saying. A response is expected on Saturday, and if it does not come the questions move upstairs.

Squad

Costly mistake from Vitor Eudes

An error at the back is a moment; an error in goal is a goal. Vitor Eudes knows it, the crowd knew it instantly, and there was nobody behind him to make it anything else.

Squad

Rodolfo Castro 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.

In brief

  • The terraces Everybody has an opinion about Vitor Eudes
  • Market ABC put Levi up for sale
  • The terraces The press cannot get enough of Igor Bahia

Match

A bad afternoon for ABC against Atlético Mineiro

1-3 to Atlético Mineiro, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Squad

Wellington Carvalho 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.

In brief

  • Squad The manager makes an example of Dudu Mandai
  • Squad Lima unhappy with how he is being used
  • Squad Camutanga named in the team of the week

Market

Esquerdinha 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 ABC can pretend not to have heard.

Match

6 matches without a win for ABC

The run now stands at 6, and the questions being asked around ABC are no longer polite ones.

Squad

Edson 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.

Match

ABC and Flamengo 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.

Squad

Wellington Carvalho 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.

Market

Dudu Mandai is free to find somewhere else

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

Squad

Lima is off the mark for ABC

The first one is the one every signing is asked about until it arrives. It has arrived, and he can stop being asked.

Squad

Is this Edson’s last season?

“I will know when it is time. I am not there yet.” Edson is 35, with 5 appearances behind him, and ABC will have to plan for whichever answer comes.

Loan watch

Ronaldy keeps scoring at Santa Cruz

7 appearances away from home and 4 goals to show for them. Every one of them makes next summer's conversation a little more expensive.

In brief

  • Market Levi joins ABC on a free
  • The terraces The press have found their man in Lima
