Squad

Esteban Moreira: that is not what I was promised

“Things were said to me before I signed. I am not going to repeat them, but I remember all of them.” O'Higgins have not answered, which is an answer of sorts.

Match

5 matches without a win for O'Higgins

The run now stands at 5, and the questions being asked around O'Higgins are no longer polite ones.

Market

Union La Calera come back empty-handed

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

Match

O'Higgins come up short against Santiago Wanderers

Santiago Wanderers left with the points after a 0-1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Leandro Díaz

“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

Martín Sarrafiore is in the form of his life

A season average of 7.31 with 6 goals behind it. Opponents have started planning around him, which is the sincerest compliment football pays.

Market

O'Higgins turn down Universidad Catolica for Thiago Vecino

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Market

Martín Quezada 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 O'Higgins can pretend not to have heard.

Squad

Luis Cabrera stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Luis Cabrera and O'Higgins agree another 2 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Market

Cristóbal Castillo told to find a new club

“They were honest with me, and I would rather know.” Cristóbal Castillo has been informed he is not in the manager's thinking at O'Higgins.

Squad

Thiago Vecino 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.

Market

O'Higgins bring in an old head

Willian Pacheco is 34 and has run out of things to prove. What he has left is where to stand, when to slow it down and what to say at half-time, and none of that is on a fitness chart.
