Squad

Thiago Cunha breaks a bone — 53 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 53 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad

Words exchanged at Juazeirense

João Grilo and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Transfer targets

Juazeirense rebuffed over Vinícius Mingotti

Not now, not at any price the club was prepared to say out loud. Operário Ferroviário have kept their man, and Juazeirense go back to a list with one name crossed off it.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Adauto Júnior

“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

Words at Juazeirense training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Marcelo Cauã is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Boardroom

Wages eat 102% of everything Juazeirense earn

There is a figure at which a wage bill stops being ambitious and becomes the reason nothing else is possible, and this club has reached it. Nothing is left over for a transfer, a stand or a rainy afternoon.

Transfer targets

A loan move for Alegria is in the works

Juazeirense have made the call to Nova Iguaçu. No fee, a share of the wages, and a spare shirt in the position where the squad has been thinnest all season.

Squad

5 new faces, and Juazeirense are still learning each other

A squad rebuilt inside one window pays for it in a currency nobody budgets for. The football is not worse than the sum of the players; it is worse than the sum of the players who have played together before.

Boardroom

Open for business: Juazeirense enter the window

The registration window is open and the phone has started. Between now and the deadline this club will be linked with forty players and sign three, which is the usual ratio.

Squad

Marcelo Cauã gets the move he always wanted

Footballers are asked about their boyhood club so often that nobody listens to the answer. Marcelo Cauã has just signed for Juazeirense, and for once the answer mattered.

Squad

Felipe Garcia signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Felipe Garcia and Juazeirense agree another 1 years.

Player ratings

Éverton was unplayable

Successful dribbles: 22. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Squad

Felipe Garcia 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 Juazeirense this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Words at Juazeirense training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Douglas Souza is at the centre of it, and the squad will now find out whether the standard rises or the pair of them simply stop speaking.

Match

A bad afternoon for Juazeirense against Horizonte

0‑2 to Horizonte, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

The dugout

No hiding place for Adauto Júnior

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

The dugout

Fernando Monteiro: “No excuses”

“I could talk about decisions and I could talk about luck. I will not. We lost.” The manager, 0‑2, and a press conference that lasted four minutes.

Market

A long bet from Juazeirense on Marcelo Cauã

He is 20, and nobody at Juazeirense signed him for this season. Deals like this are judged in four years, by people who may not still be in the building.
