Age has not caught Gaspar yet — 7.82

At 35 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 7.82 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Squad18 Feb 2036

Enrique Gallardo keeps the receipts

“I remember the meeting. I remember exactly what was promised in it.” Gijón may remember it differently, which is precisely the problem.

Squad18 Feb 2036

Tempers go at Gijón

Gaspar 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.

Squad18 Feb 2036

Words at Gijón training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Jérémie Boga 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.

Nobody could get near Alisson

Successful dribbles: 18. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad18 Feb 2036

Lautaro Garzón wants out of the spotlight

The ambition story running the other way, and the one nobody tells: a footballer asking for a smaller stage, fewer cameras and a crowd that does not turn. It is not weakness and it is very rarely reported as anything else.

Only the photograph left for Ibai Bravo

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Ibai Bravo will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Gijón the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Match24 Feb 2035

Jérémie Boga’s goal not enough for Gijón

Jérémie Boga scored, and precious little else went right: 1‑3 to Mirandés, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.

Squad26 Feb 2035

Hugo Guillamón 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.

Boardroom26 Feb 2035

Doors closed at Gijón

The music was off and the showers ran late. What was said in that dressing room stays there, but Saturday will publish the minutes.
