The Valledupar Post

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

David Rodríguez says Valledupar 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.

Market

Johan Garcia 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 Valledupar can pretend not to have heard.

Squad

Sebastian Rios 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 Valledupar Post

From our football correspondent Crisis

Market

Diego Pérez asks to leave Valledupar

“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

Diego Pérez says Valledupar 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

4 matches without a win for Valledupar

The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Valledupar are no longer polite ones.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Juan David Vélez

“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.

Match

Once Caldas take the points off Valledupar

Beaten 0-1, and beaten fairly. The manager kept his words short afterwards, which was probably wise.

Squad

Valledupar lose Daniel Torres

47 days, the medical staff say, and medical staff are optimists by profession. The team sheet will look wrong without him.
