Squad21 Dec 2026

The season belongs to Mihailo Perović

An individual honour is a strange thing in a team game, and the best of them are never argued with. He has had the sort of year that ends with his name being read out, and Persebaya have had the benefit of it.

Squad21 Dec 2026

Tempers go at Persebaya

Jefferson 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.

Squad21 Dec 2026

A row about effort at Persebaya

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

The dugout21 Dec 2026

The manager makes an example of Rachmat Irianto

“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.

The dugout21 Dec 2026

Francisco Rivera gets picked when it counts

Every manager keeps a short list in his head of the men he wants on the pitch when the stakes rise, and it is never published. The team sheets for the big afternoons say Francisco Rivera is on it.

The Mihailo Perović question follows Persebaya around

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

Match12 Sep 2026

Persebaya tear Persita apart

Rarely has this fixture seen a display like it: 6‑2 against Persita, and it could have been more.

Squad14 Sep 2026

3 goals for Mihailo Perović

The match ball belongs to Mihailo Perović, whose 3 goals turned a difficult afternoon into a procession.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Francisco Rivera scores twice — 7.94

Two goals and a mark of 7.94 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Tempers go at Persebaya

Rick Jonkers 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.

Match12 Sep 2026

8 goals as Persebaya and Persita go for it

Defending was optional and nobody took up the option. 8 goals between Persebaya and Persita, and not one of the people who paid to be there will ask for the money back.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Mihailo Perović was on a different afternoon to everybody else

9.67. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

Squad14 Sep 2026

Words at Persebaya training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Jefferson 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.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

Miguel Pereira was on a different afternoon to everybody else

8.47. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.

Player ratings14 Sep 2026

One of those days for Malik Risaldi

There is a version of this player everybody suspected was in there, and on this evidence it is. 8.14, and no argument anywhere in the ground.

In brief

  • Squad Persebaya are still strangers to each other
  • The dugout The manager has not finished forgetting Rick Jonkers's mistake
  • The dugout Andi Wibowo: “That is the standard”
