Market1 Nov 2032

Santiago Cena wants European nights

The general version of this complaint is that a player wants more. The specific version names the thing: he wants to walk out under floodlights against clubs from other countries, and he has stopped pretending otherwise.

Santiago Cena 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 Philadelphia Union this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad1 Nov 2032

A row about effort at Philadelphia Union

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

The dugout1 Nov 2032

No hiding place for Nicholas Simmonds

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

When it matters, Agustín Anello plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Market1 Nov 2032

Talks stall between Philadelphia Union and Daniel Edelman

“We are a long way apart, and pretending otherwise helps nobody.” Neither side is close, and the calendar is not on the club's side.

Squad1 Nov 2032

A promotion for Dejan Joveljić

Not a new contract, not a new number: a new place in the manager’s thinking, which is the only promotion in football that actually matters. Dejan Joveljić has moved up it.

Loan watch1 Nov 2032

João Klauss keeps scoring at Ypiranga

31 appearances away from home and 8 goals to show for them. Every one of them makes next summer's conversation a little more expensive.

Squad1 Nov 2032

A season on the outside for Dejan Joveljić

He trains hard, says the right things and goes home to an empty flat. Nobody at Philadelphia Union has done anything wrong, which is exactly what makes it so difficult to fix.

Match25 Oct 2032

Philadelphia Union refuse to drop out of the race

Position 2, 62 points, and the result everyone checks first is now theirs. The word is still not being said around the ground, which is how you know everyone is thinking it.

Market25 Oct 2032

Paxten Aaronson raises the bar for Philadelphia Union

“I want to be playing for trophies while my legs still let me.” Nothing in that sentence is a transfer request, and nobody at Philadelphia Union heard it as anything else.

Squad25 Oct 2032

Tempers go at Philadelphia Union

Agustín Anello 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.

A row about effort at Philadelphia Union

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

The dugout25 Oct 2032

The manager makes an example of Philip Quinton

“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.

When it matters, Leon Flach plays

It is never announced and it is entirely visible: the biggest afternoons of the season keep containing him. A press box works this out long before anybody at the club confirms a word of it.

Quinn Sullivan linked with a move away

The name of Quinn Sullivan keeps appearing in other people's back pages. Philadelphia Union say nothing, which says plenty.

The dugout25 Oct 2032

Cameron Johnson 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.

Market25 Oct 2032

The clock does Stephen Afrifa’s negotiating for him

5 months left, and both sides know what that means: every week without a signature, the fee Philadelphia Union could ask drops and the wages Stephen Afrifa can ask rise.
