Marked for Sergi Enrich

Crisis
Market25 Jan 2027
“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.
Squad25 Jan 2027
A one-man rearguard from Dani Jiménez
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.
Market25 Jan 2027
Ceuta come back empty-handed
The bid was some way short and Huesca did not need long over it. Nobody in the game reads a first refusal as the end of anything.
Squad25 Jan 2027
Tempers go at Huesca
Sergi Enrich 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.
Squad25 Jan 2027
Words at Huesca training over how hard people work
Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Jaime Seoane 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.
Market25 Jan 2027
The interest is real enough to have reached print. Huesca have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.
Player ratings25 Jan 2027
Headers, blocks, tackles, interceptions — 18 of them, and not one goal behind him. The sort of performance that never makes a highlight reel and wins football matches.
Squad25 Jan 2027
“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.
Player ratings25 Jan 2027
13 times he got in the way of something. Centre-halves get written about when they make mistakes and ignored when they do not, so an afternoon like this needs saying out loud: he is the reason the scoreline reads as it does.

Match28 Dec 2026
Huesca are in real trouble now
Position 20, 17 points, and a fixture list with fewer games left in it than excuses. The arithmetic is not cruel yet, but it has stopped being kind.

Match26 Dec 2026
Sergi Enrich scored, and precious little else went right: 1‑2 to Andorra, and a quiet walk to the dressing room.
Squad28 Dec 2026
“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.
Squad28 Dec 2026
Dani Jiménez is still paying for one afternoon at Huesca
Nobody will confirm this and nothing else explains the last month of selections. A costly error buys a player a period of being second choice that is always longer than the error was.

Squad21 Dec 2026
Some afternoons a goalkeeper is the team. 6 saves, several of them the sort nobody expects to see stopped, and a scoreline that flatters everybody in front of him.
Squad21 Dec 2026
“I have given this everything, but my family is not here and neither am I, not really.” A footballer can be coached out of bad form. Nobody has ever been coached out of this, and Huesca know it.

Boardroom7 Dec 2026
Pressure builds in the Huesca boardroom
The directors have stopped offering the manager public warmth. In football that is usually the stage before the short statement.
Player ratings7 Dec 2026
Age has not caught Óscar Sielva yet — 7.98
At 35 he is supposed to be managing his minutes. Instead he was marked 7.98 and looked, for ninety minutes, exactly like the player everybody remembers.
Match5 Dec 2026
4 matches without a win for Huesca
The run now stands at 4, and the questions being asked around Huesca are no longer polite ones.

Sergi Enrich 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 Huesca this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.
Squad7 Dec 2026
Jaime Seoane falls out with a teammate over standards
The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.
Player ratings7 Dec 2026
Successful dribbles: 16. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

16 defensive actions and a clean sheet at the end of them. A defender's afternoon can only be told by what did not happen, which is why nobody makes a highlights package out of one and every manager in the division would take it.

A performance of 8.06 does not come along often, and when it does the rest of the team becomes scenery. He was magnificent.

It finished 2‑2, and it somehow always looked like it would. One of those afternoons where the table moves less than the tempers.

Up for the corner, and Óscar Sielva delivers — 7.56
