The Almirante Brown Gazette

From our football correspondent Upbeat

Market

Almirante Brown turn down Bnei Yehuda for Alexis Martínez

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

Boardroom

Gerardo Alegre Rojas has agreed to leave Almirante Brown for nothing

He will play here until the summer and then walk out of the door for free, having already signed elsewhere. Supporters will manage the first part of that sentence; it is the second they will struggle with.

Market

Only the photograph left for Gerardo Alegre Rojas

Fee agreed, terms agreed, medical booked. Gerardo Alegre Rojas will be somebody else’s player by the weekend, and around Almirante Brown the goodbyes have quietly begun.

Squad

Facundo Quignón 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 Almirante Brown this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Market

Santiago Gauna wants European nights

The general version of this complaint is that a player wants more. The specific version names the thing: he wants to walk out under floodlights against clubs from other countries, and he has stopped pretending otherwise.

Squad

Words at Almirante Brown training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Leonardo Jara 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.

Player ratings

Gastón Moreyra beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 20. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

Match

Almirante Brown find a way past Central Norte

Central Norte made Almirante Brown work for it, but the scoreboard read 2‑1 at the end and the table does not ask how.

Market

Almirante Brown promote Carlos Rodríguez from within

The academy exists for exactly this morning. Carlos Rodríguez has come through every age group the club runs and has now been handed a senior number, and the people who coached him at twelve will be the proudest in the building.

From our football correspondent Uneasy

Squad

Bruno Galván keeps Almirante Brown in it on his own

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.

Squad

Leonardo Jara signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Leonardo Jara and Almirante Brown agree another 2 years.

Squad

Words exchanged at Almirante Brown

Leonardo Jara 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.

Market

Agustín Dattola wants European nights

The general version of this complaint is that a player wants more. The specific version names the thing: he wants to walk out under floodlights against clubs from other countries, and he has stopped pretending otherwise.

Squad

Facundo Quignón 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 ratings

Nobody could get near Santiago Gauna

Successful dribbles: 20. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Market

Bnei Yehuda watching Alexis Martínez

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Almirante Brown have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Market

Nobody at Almirante Brown has picked up the phone to Facundo Quignón

24 months to run and not a word offered. A club that lets the calendar negotiate for it usually ends up losing to the calendar.

Match

Santiago Villalba rescues a point for Almirante Brown

It needed Santiago Villalba to find the net to bring anything home at all: 1‑1 against Agropecuario Argentino, and half the dressing room will call it a point won.

In brief

  • The dugout The manager’s verdict
  • The dugout No place in the plan for Gastón Moreyra
  • The dugout Gonzalo Flores knocks on the manager’s door
