Squad

A fracture rules Angus Thurgate out for 94 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Western Sydney Wanderers will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Boardroom

Western Sydney Wanderers write off $95.3K on Gabriel Popovic

He arrived for a fee and leaves for a fraction of it. $95.3K of what Western Sydney Wanderers paid for Gabriel Popovic is money the club will not see again, and the boardroom will be asked about it for two seasons.

Caleb White puts it in writing

“This is not anger. I have thought about it for months, and nothing that has happened lately changed my mind.” The request is on a desk at Western Sydney Wanderers, and it is not being withdrawn.

Boardroom

Window shuts: 0 in, 23 out at Western Sydney Wanderers

The deadline has passed and the squad is the squad. 0 arrived, 23 left, and everything else printed about this club last month was a rumour that stayed one.

Market

Tokollo Makgolane’s move to Adelaide United falls through

The deal that would have taken Tokollo Makgolane to Adelaide United has collapsed at the last stage, and he reports back to Western Sydney Wanderers with a summer to forget and a season still to play. Nobody is saying which side walked away.

Squad

Angus Thurgate 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 Western Sydney Wanderers this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Zachary De Jesus in trouble away from the ground

Every paper's favourite story and every manager's least. What happened is being dealt with internally, which is the phrase clubs use when they would rather nobody asked again.

Squad

A row about effort at Western Sydney Wanderers

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

The dugout

Zach Lisolajski gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Zach Lisolajski is on it.

Only the photograph left for Gabriel Popovic

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Gabriel Popovic will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Western Sydney Wanderers the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad

Words at Western Sydney Wanderers training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Angus Thurgate 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.

One of our own: Bradley Wright joins the Western Sydney Wanderers first team

Clubs spend fortunes looking for players and occasionally find one down the corridor. Bradley Wright is that, and the reception he gets on his first appearance will be different in kind from the one any signing receives.

Market

Western Sydney Wanderers promote Caleb White from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Caleb White has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Western Sydney Wanderers promote Owen O'Neill from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Owen O'Neill has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

Squad

Words exchanged at Western Sydney Wanderers

Zachary De Jesus 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.

The dugout

Alfie James 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.

The dugout

Alfie James has become a man the manager trusts

Nobody at Western Sydney Wanderers 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.

Match

Western Sydney Wanderers in the hunt for Europe

Position 4, 39 points, and a run-in that decides whether next season has Thursday nights in it. Nobody is calling it a race yet, which is what people say during one.
