Boardroom

Güemes put Daniel Colombo on notice

The board have said in public what they had been saying in private. Results between now and the next meeting decide it, and everybody in the building knows the arithmetic.

Boardroom

The Güemes board call everybody in

Nothing has been announced and everybody understands what it means. A board that summons the whole football department on a Tuesday morning is a board that has stopped believing the problem will fix itself.

Market

Gianfranco Baier 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 The request is on a desk at Güemes, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad

Santiago Sala 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 Güemes this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

The dugout

The manager's exit leaves Angel Uñates exposed

Every squad has men who were signed by a particular manager and men who were merely inherited. Angel Uñates is in the first group, and the man who wanted him here is no longer in the building.

Market

The Walter Juárez question follows Güemes around

Every press conference now starts and ends the same way: with Walter Juárez’s future. The manager has run out of new ways to say nothing.

Market

The shop window has Walter Juárez in it

Güemes have let the market know Walter Juárez can be had. No price in the advert, but everyone in the trade knows roughly what it says.

Squad

Fernando Godoy is doing the arithmetic

The table has started to be checked before the results are in, and that is always the tell. Nobody at Güemes says the word out loud, and everybody in the building is thinking it.

The dugout

Maico Quiroz knocks on the manager's door

“It had gone on long enough. I would rather have it out than leave it sitting there.” Ten minutes behind a closed door at Güemes, and both men came out saying it was fine.

Match

No mercy from Güemes

Madryn will want this one forgotten quickly: 4‑1, every duel lost, and a long ride home. Güemes were ruthless in the way good sides are ruthless.

Player ratings

A brace, and Santiago Sala takes the afternoon — 9.39

There is a particular kind of quiet from an away end watching one man score twice. Santiago Sala provided it, and the 9.39 beside his name is if anything generous to everybody else.

Squad

6 saves: Leandro Finochietto was the team

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 6 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

Player ratings

Vintage Marcelo Benítez — 7.88

At 35 every good afternoon gets called a throwback, and this one was: 7.88, and nobody on the pitch better.

Squad

Tempers go at Güemes

Santiago Sala 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.

Market

Güemes promote Bruno Silva from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Bruno Silva 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.

Market

Gael Rodríguez steps up from the Güemes academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Gael Rodríguez has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.

Market

One of our own: Luis Bruno joins the Güemes first team

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

Market

Carlos Colombo steps up from the Güemes academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Carlos Colombo has been at this club since he was a boy and is now, formally, one of the first-team squad — which for a local readership beats any signing of any size.
