Squad

Manuel Guanini 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 Gimnasia y Tiro this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market

Luca Proda is a Gimnasia y Tiro player again

He left as a boy and has come back still knowing where the away end is. Most signings have to be explained to a town; this one needed a photograph and nothing else.

Boardroom

Graduation day at Gimnasia y Tiro

5 boys move up, and somewhere in the building the people who coached them at twelve are quietly having the best morning of their working year. Nothing about this shows up in a result and it is why the academy exists.

Match

Nicolás Contín’s goal not enough for Gimnasia y Tiro

Nicolás Contín scored, and precious little else went right: 1‑2 to Madryn, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

The dugout

No hiding place for Joaquín Papaleo

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

Market

Bautista Méndez steps up from the Gimnasia y Tiro academy

There is no fee, no unveiling and no agent on the steps. Bautista Méndez 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: Matías Gutiérrez joins the Gimnasia y Tiro first team

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

Market

One of our own: Camello joins the Gimnasia y Tiro first team

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

Squad

Luca Proda signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Luca Proda commits to Gimnasia y Tiro for another 4 years.

Market

Gimnasia y Tiro turn down Altamura for Felipe Karabulut

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad

Bautista Plaza stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Bautista Plaza and Gimnasia y Tiro agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad

A row about effort at Gimnasia y Tiro

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

Transfer targets

Gimnasia y Esgrima tell Gimnasia y Tiro: Felipe San Juan is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

Market

A stepping stone, not a home, for Nahuel Dughera

He is doing his job and he is not settling. Gimnasia y Tiro were supposed to be a step up in his own reckoning, and his own reckoning has been adjusted since he arrived.

Squad

Gimnasia y Tiro count the cost of losing Pedro Suárez

45 days, the scan says, and scans are kinder than reality. The fixtures in that window have just become somebody else’s job.

Squad

Nahuel Dughera is a square peg at Gimnasia y Tiro

The system has changed and his position has not. A footballer can improve his form; he cannot improve the manager’s formation, and that is the whole of the problem.

The dugout

Rodrigo Sosa 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

Tiago Banega asks for a word with the manager

“I would rather say it to his face than read about it.” The meeting was requested by the player, which tells you most of what you need to know.
