Squad

Alessandro Galeandro stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Alessandro Galeandro and Campobasso agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Match

The goals have deserted Campobasso

3 matches, no goals, and a training ground that has tried everything. It will end — droughts always do — but nobody at Campobasso can tell you which week it ends in.

The dugout

No hiding place for Edoardo Lancini

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

The dugout

Michele Caruso: “We have to be better”

“It is not the end of the world and it is not good enough. Both of those are true.” The manager, after a 0‑0 draw, said the honest thing and then went to say it again inside.

Looking ahead

The leaders are next for Campobasso

Spezia top the table and they are coming into view. Nothing to lose, which is what every manager says before losing.

The dugout

The plan did not have a place for Alfredo Bifulco

Nobody at Campobasso is suggesting he is out of form. The manager simply wanted somebody with a different set of qualities for ninety specific minutes, and there is nothing a player can train to fix that.

Match

Campobasso and Livorno cancel each other out

Nil-nil, and few chances worth the name. Livorno came to defend and left with exactly what they came for.

Looking ahead

Gabriele Corbo goes back to face Spezia

Every squad has one of these fixtures for somebody every season. This one is Gabriele Corbo’s: the club that knew him first, the supporters who will decide in the first minute whether to applaud, and Campobasso needing him to play as if none of it matters.

The dugout

Christian Celesia 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.

Match

Campobasso taken apart

0‑3 to Perugia, and it was every bit as bad as the number suggests. There are defeats you argue about and defeats you apologise for; this was the second kind.

Market

Christian Celesia asks to leave Campobasso

“I have given everything here and I need a new challenge.” The request is formal, and the relationship will never be quite the same again.

The dugout

Davide Barosi 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.

Boardroom

Doors closed at Campobasso

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

The dugout

Michele Caruso faces the questions

“We were not good enough today and I am not going to dress it up.” Michele Caruso after 0‑3, in the tone of a man who knows the next question and does not intend to answer it.

The dugout

Somebody else is better right now than Davide Barosi

The team sheet says it in public every week until it changes. The only version of being dropped a footballer cannot argue with, and the one he takes hardest.

Player ratings

Matteo Stoppa beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 12. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Player ratings

Alessandro Galeandro keeps on missing

Shots: 7, not one of them in. A centre forward is paid for one thing, and on this evidence he has forgotten which thing it is.

The dugout

The plan did not have a place for Edoardo Lancini

Nobody at Campobasso is suggesting he is out of form. The manager simply wanted somebody with a different set of qualities for ninety specific minutes, and there is nothing a player can train to fix that.
