Squad

76 days out for Timoteo Chamorro after a fracture

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

Player ratings

A defender's goal wins it for Talleres — 6.04

1 for Gabriel Báez, marked 6.04, and a centre-half's name in the part of the report he normally only reaches by mistake. He will not be allowed to forget it in the dressing room for a month.

Market

Talleres turn down Pakhtakor for Daniel Ribera

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

Squad

A falling-out at Talleres

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

The terraces

One of their own: Santino Barbi

He is 21 and the ground already sings his name, which is a thing that happens to local boys and almost never to signings. Everything from here is measured against an affection he did nothing to earn except be from here.

Match

Gabriel Báez sends Talleres past Deportivo Riestra

It finished 1‑0, and it was Gabriel Báez’s afternoon: on the scoresheet when it mattered, and the reason the points belong to Talleres.

Squad

Words at Talleres training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ulises Ortegoza 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 dugout

Gabriel Báez 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.

The dugout

Sergio Moreno: “That is the standard”

“That is what I want every week. Not the result, the way they went about it.” The manager, after 1‑0, already talking about the next one.

Squad

A fracture rules Timoteo Chamorro out for 83 days

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

Squad

Santino Barbi stands alone

7 saves, and a scoreline the ten men in front of him had no right to. Goalkeepers only get noticed on the bad days; this was one of the other ones.

Market

Almería come back empty-handed

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

Squad

Matías Galarza signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Matías Galarza commits to Talleres for another 3 years.

Match

Talleres come up short against Central Córdoba SdE

Central Córdoba SdE left with the points after a 2‑3 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad

Tempers go at Talleres

José Luis Palomino 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.

Boardroom

Talleres beat the market to Francisco González Metilli from Belgrano

Belgrano will keep picking him until June and will get nothing for him after it. Francisco González Metilli has pre-agreed a move to Talleres, and the only people who lose in that arrangement are the ones who let the contract run down.

The dugout

Matías Galarza 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.

Boardroom

Nobody left the Talleres dressing room in a hurry

The door stayed shut a long time after the final whistle. What was said in there is between them; whether it worked is between them and Saturday.

Market

Betis come back empty-handed

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

Squad

Federico Fattori signs on for more

“Some decisions take a long time. This one took ten minutes, and most of that was finding a pen.” Federico Fattori and Talleres agree another 2 years.

Squad

José Luis Palomino 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 Talleres this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Match

Talleres come up short against Estudiantes

Estudiantes left with the points after a 0‑1 defeat that will take some explaining on the terraces.

Squad

Words at Talleres training over how hard people work

Somebody said out loud what several people had been thinking. Ulises Ortegoza 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 dugout

No hiding place for José Luis Palomino

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to José Luis Palomino, and the manager let it.

Market

Talleres and Franco Cristaldo 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.

Squad

Too much change too quickly at Talleres

14 signings in three months. Every one of them may be an upgrade and the team can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild that never appears in the transfer-window verdicts.

The dugout

The view from the dugout

“We will look at it, we will learn from it, and we go again.” The three sentences every manager keeps for a 0‑1 defeat, delivered by Sergio Moreno to a room that had heard them before.
