Squad

The knee: Wilsinho out for 52 days

52 days on the announcement, and a year of quiet, unwatched rehabilitation behind it. Treze lose a player for a season; he loses something harder to name.

Squad

Igor Monteiro breaks a bone — 21 days out

Brutal, unambiguous and, for all the horror of the moment, usually less career-shaped than the ligament everybody fears more. 21 days, a clean timeline, and a return date somebody can actually plan around.

Squad

A falling-out at Treze

Erick Belé 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 Treze training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Guilherme Gama 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

Lucas Rotela 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.

Market

Guilherme Gama linked with a move away

The name of Guilherme Gama keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Treze say nothing, which says plenty.

Squad

Wilsinho damages knee ligaments — 60 days out

The words a physio says slowly. 60 days is what the club will announce and everybody who has heard this diagnosis before knows the number is the least of it: the knee comes back before the player does.

Market

Guilherme Gama 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 The request is on a desk at Treze, and it is not being withdrawn.

Squad

28 days out for Igor Monteiro after a fracture

A bone, which is the one injury with a calendar attached. Treze will name a return date and, unusually for this business, will probably be right about it.

Squad

A row about effort at Treze

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

Squad

Tempers go at Treze

Rafael Furlan 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.

The dugout

No hiding place for Nicolás Pedroso

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