Squad22 May 2028

Tempers go at Guadalajara

Miguel Pabón 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.

Squad22 May 2028

Joel López 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.

The dugout22 May 2028

Raúl Tavares has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Guadalajara will say this on the record and the team sheets have been saying it for weeks. There is a small group in every squad who get picked when the fixture is difficult, and he has joined it.

The dugout22 May 2028

No hiding place for Dani Vicente

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

The dugout22 May 2028

Agustín Moreno has been promised minutes

A conversation in the manager’s office, and a commitment that came out of it. Promises like that are cheap to make and expensive to break, and Agustín Moreno has written the date down.

The dugout22 May 2028

Tobías Córdoba knocks on the manager’s door

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

Miki goes up and wins it — 7.40

A defender on the scoresheet, which happens rarely enough that everybody in the ground remembers who took the corner. 1 for him, and a mark of 7.40 for the rest of it.

The dugout10 Jan 2028

William Warrer: 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.” Guadalajara have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Match8 Jan 2028

The wait goes on for Guadalajara

4 without a win now, and the ground has developed the special quiet of a crowd that expects the worst. One scrappy 1-0 would cure most of it; that is the maddening part.

Match8 Jan 2028

Whatever happens, Guadalajara do not lose

7 games unbeaten now. Some were earned and some were survived, but a habit is forming — and habits are the hardest thing in football to play against.

Squad10 Jan 2028

A falling-out at Guadalajara

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

Transfer targets10 Jan 2028

Celta tell Guadalajara: Xandre 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.

Squad10 Jan 2028

Pablo Rojo 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.

Match8 Jan 2028

Late, late show earns Guadalajara a point

Minute 92, against Zaragoza, and a goal that felt like a win to everybody who had stayed. It was a draw. Nobody leaving the ground will describe it as one.

Squad10 Jan 2028

Home is on Yuki Yoshihara's mind

“Some mornings you wake up and you are still a long way from everything you know.” It is not the football and it never was; Guadalajara are dealing with a man who wants a different country.

Squad13 Sep 2027

A knee injury of the worst kind for Dani Gallardo

109 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Guadalajara lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

The dugout13 Sep 2027

Miguel Pabón: 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.” Guadalajara have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Market13 Sep 2027

Tobías Córdoba asks to leave Guadalajara

“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.

Squad13 Sep 2027

Real improvement from William Warrer at Guadalajara

Form comes and goes; this has not gone. William Warrer is 20, and the version of him training now would not have got into the side he was in a year ago.

Squad13 Sep 2027

Miguel Pabón 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 Guadalajara this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Transfer targets13 Sep 2027

No deal for Josep Calavera at that price

Guadalajara offered $280.0K; Tenerife said it was not close. The manager will be told the money is still there for the right player, which is what managers are told.

Squad13 Sep 2027

Liviu Pancişin arrives at the club he grew up with

Every footballer has an answer to the question about his boyhood club, and most of them never get to act on it. Liviu Pancişin has, at Guadalajara, and the first month will show what that does to a man.

Transfer targets13 Sep 2027

The window shuts on the Héctor Eduardo Acevedo deal

Guadalajara ran out of time with Hércules. The paperwork was open when the deadline passed, and a transfer that was almost done is now a transfer that never happened.

Player ratings13 Sep 2027

Gastón Nazar runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 16. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.
