Squad

A knee injury of the worst kind for Jack Brown

32 days on the estimate, and a long, private, unglamorous year of a rehabilitation nobody watches. Persita lose a footballer; he loses considerably more than a season.

Market

Andi Irfan hands in a written request

“I have nothing bad to say about this place. I just need to be somewhere else.” It is in writing now, which changes what Persita can pretend not to have heard.

Player ratings

Aleksa Andrejić, 34, rolls back the years — 8.20

There is an age at which every good afternoon gets described as a throwback, which is unfair and also accurate. 8.20 at 34, and nobody on the pitch was better.

Player ratings

Rayco runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 19. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Igor Rodrigues

“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.

Squad

Words at Persita training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Javlon Guseynov 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.

Squad

Jasey Wehrmann 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 Persita this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

Persita and Bhayangkara Presisi take a point apiece

It finished 1‑1, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Market

Still no ink between Persita and Bae Sin-Yeong

“We keep meeting, and we keep leaving the room with the same numbers we walked in with.” Another round of talks at Persita, another week without a signature from Bae Sin-Yeong.

Market

Persib come back empty-handed

The bid was some way short and Persita did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.

Player ratings

Rayco runs at them all day

Successful dribbles: 24. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Squad

Igor Rodrigues 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 Persita this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Squad

Javlon Guseynov 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.

Squad

This league is too small for Ousmane Coulibaly

He is doing things on a Saturday afternoon that nobody around him can answer, which is flattering for about one season and a problem after that. Persita will not keep him by pretending otherwise.

Market

Persita and Matheus Alves are talking past each other

“There is a gap, and pretending there is not helps nobody.” Neither side has moved, and the calendar is working for exactly one of them.

In brief
