Squad15 Feb 2027

The knee: Makhtar Guèye out for 16 days

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

Squad15 Feb 2027

112 days out for Ricardo Batista after a fracture

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

Squad15 Feb 2027

A one-man rearguard from André Gomes

There were 6 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Player ratings15 Feb 2027

Age has not caught Cassiano yet — 7.90

At 37 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 7.90 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.

Player ratings15 Feb 2027

Sebastián Pérez goes up and wins it — 7.70

A defender on the scoresheet, which happens rarely enough that everybody in the ground remembers who took the corner. 1 for him, and a mark of 7.70 for the rest of it.

Squad15 Feb 2027

Jérémy Livolant 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 Casa Pia this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Transfer targets15 Feb 2027

Porto tell Casa Pia: Jens Petter Hauge is not for sale

The approach was made and the answer came back in a sentence. There is no number on the table because there was no number that would have been enough.

The dugout15 Feb 2027

The manager makes an example of Kélian Nsona

“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 dugout15 Feb 2027

Casa Pia keep their word to João Rego

Clubs make promises constantly and the page usually only hears about them when they are broken. This one was honoured, and the dressing room noticed that faster than any supporter did.

Squad1 Feb 2027

The knee: Makhtar Guèye out for 33 days

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

Match30 Jan 2027

Nowhere to hide for Casa Pia

0‑5 against Porto, and no complaints that would survive the replay. The manager spoke about character afterwards; the terraces used shorter words.

Squad1 Feb 2027

A fracture rules Ricardo Batista out for 126 days

Bones knit. That is the one merciful thing about this injury and the reason Casa Pia will talk about it more openly than they would about a knee. He will be back, and roughly when they say.

Squad1 Feb 2027

9 saves: André Gomes was the team

Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the whole of the defence. 9 saves, several of them the kind nobody expects to see made, and ten outfield players who owe him a drink.

Market1 Feb 2027

The Lusitano Évora deal is off

Everything was agreed until it was not, and Korede Osundina reports back to Casa Pia with a summer to forget. Neither club is saying who walked away from the table.

Boardroom1 Feb 2027

Casa Pia close the window on a squad of their own making

3 in and 4 out, and no more changes for months. The manager has what he has, the supporters have their opinion of it, and the table will have the last word.

Squad1 Feb 2027

Words exchanged at Casa Pia

Jérémy Livolant and a teammate said things this week that will take longer than a week to unsay. It was not about football, and both of them play on Saturday.

Transfer targets1 Feb 2027

Door shut on Ignacio

Casa Pia asked and Fluminense said no without discussing a figure. It is the least ambiguous answer in football and the one clubs most often come back to test.

Market1 Feb 2027

Nacional join the queue for Ricardo Batista

Add another name to the list: Nacional have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Ricardo Batista. The answer from Casa Pia has not changed — yet.

Player ratings23 Nov 2026

Henrique Araújo scores twice — 8.60

Two goals and a mark of 8.60 to go with them. Strikers are judged on afternoons like this one and remembered for far fewer of them than people imagine.

Squad23 Nov 2026

A falling-out at Casa Pia

Wanderson and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

Match21 Nov 2026

Casa Pia find a way past Estrela da Amadora

Estrela da Amadora made Casa Pia work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑0 at the end and the table does not ask how.

The dugout23 Nov 2026

Zé Hugo 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.

Player ratings23 Nov 2026

Jérémy Livolant beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 17. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

The dugout23 Nov 2026

A promise honoured at Casa Pia

Something was said to Wanderson and then it happened. In this industry that passes for remarkable, and the dressing room noticed faster than any supporter could.

Squad23 Nov 2026

Words at Casa Pia training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Gustavo Nicola 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 dugout23 Nov 2026

A satisfied Goncalo Fernandes

“The players deserve the credit. My job was easy today.” It was not, and everybody in the room knew it; after 2‑0, Goncalo Fernandes could afford to be generous.

The dugout23 Nov 2026

Cassiano 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 Cassiano is on it.
