Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Talal Al-Salem

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

Match

A hiding for Al-Mojzel

Beaten 1‑4 by Al-Nahda, and beaten everywhere it matters. The inquest starts on the training pitch on Monday morning.

Match

No end in sight to Al-Mojzel's wait for a win

4 matches now without a victory, and the excuses have worn thinner than the patience. Somebody at Al-Mojzel has to find a result from somewhere.

Player ratings

Omar Al-Zahrani runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 23. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

Omar Al-Zahrani 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 Al-Mojzel this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

No clean sheets in sight for Al-Mojzel

4 games now with at least two against. The back line has been rearranged, the goalkeeper has been backed publicly, and the goals keep going in anyway.

Boardroom

Inquest at Al-Mojzel

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.

The dugout

The view from the dugout

“We will look at it, we will learn from it, and we go again.” The three sentences every manager keeps for a 1‑4 defeat, delivered by Ali Al-Dawsari to a room that had heard them before.

The dugout

Somebody else is better right now than Khalid Al-Mansour

The team sheet says it in public every week until it changes. The only version of being dropped a footballer cannot argue with, and the one he takes hardest.

In brief

Match

Al-Mojzel taken apart

0‑5 to Al-Hazem, and it was every bit as bad as the number suggests. There are defeats you argue about and defeats you apologise for; this was the second kind.

Market

Rashid Al-Salem asks to leave Al-Mojzel

“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

Sultan Al-Harbi keeps Al-Mojzel in it on his own

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 6 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.

Squad

A falling-out at Al-Mojzel

Omar Al-Zahrani and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Squad

Words at Al-Mojzel training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Talal Al-Dosari 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.

The dugout

The manager makes an example of Nasser Al-Ahmadi

“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.

Boardroom

Nobody left the Al-Mojzel dressing room in a hurry

The door stayed shut a long time after the final whistle. What was said in there is between them; whether it worked is between them and Saturday.

The dugout

Ali Al-Dawsari: “No excuses”

“I could talk about decisions and I could talk about luck. I will not. We lost.” The manager, 0‑5, and a press conference that lasted four minutes.

The dugout

Saad Al-Hassan dropped after a run of poor form

The one version of being left out a player cannot argue with, and the one he takes worst. Somebody else has been better and the team sheet says so, in public, every week until it changes.
