Please Tell Me We Can Do Better Than Juan Soler …

Juan Soler’s a muppet. There’s no other way of saying it.
He’s clueless, brainless and apparently spineless.
He held a news conference today at the Mestalla to explain to the world that David Albelda, Santiago Cañizares and Miguel Angulo aren’t sacked, they’re just riding the bench for now.
Uggh … this guy is the leader [...]

Yuletide Musings
By: Cesar | 6 Comments
The holiday season inspires one to be kind and gentle with his fellow man.
We here at the Valencia Offside (well, just me …) beg to differ. Why? Because we’re Valencia supporters, that’s why!
Lots of news since I last wrote, so fly your Valencian flag (it’s on the left) and let’s get to it.

Bon Nadal i millor any nou or … Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year, although I’ll be back soon to write about transfers [...]
Angulo: They Broke My Heart and Koeman Speaks
By: Cesar | 13 Comments
The more I think about it, the angrier I get. I can’t BELIEVE the club I love so much would do this to players we care about so much.
They deserved to sit and not play for rubbish performances. They didn’t deserve to have their noses rubbed in it.
I’m embarrassed at the way Valencia’s [...]
In Tribute to David Albelda
By: Cesar | 5 Comments
Not going to say much as I’ll write some proper posts on the recently sacked David Albelda and Santiago Canizares later.
Something about today’s press conference where David Albelda broke down and lost it really got to me.
This guy is our CAPTAIN. Ya ya, I know. I’ve been critical, called for his ouster, been [...]
Vicente and Fernandes On Way Out, Villa Next?
By: Cesar | 13 Comments
Things are moving quickly at the Mestalla.
First, check out this video of David Albelda’s press conference today. I tell you, most Valencia fans will get a lump in their throat seeing the captain shed tears over leaving the Mestalla. Sad.
But life moves on. And Ronald Koeman’s housecleaning continues.
First, sporting director Miguel Ángel [...]
More Fallout from Koeman’s Decision
By: Cesar | 2 Comments
Not much to add after yesterday’s shocking decision by coach Ronald Koeman to sack captain David Albelda and ‘keeper Santiago Cañizares.
We all know why he’s doing this. Let’s see if this sparks a turn around.
Either things improve. Or things implode.
Things are bad now, so it’s worth a shot, no?
My question is: Who’s [...]
Crisis Total

Wow! Woke up to some amazing news this morning regarding our beloved Valencia CF. Two icons of the Valencia team won’t be playing with us the rest of the season.
MARCA.com reports that Ronald Koeman has told Santiago Cañizares and David Albelda that they will not play in the last two games before Christmas and [...]
This Week’s Rants and Penya NY-CHE?
By: Cesar | 5 Comments
Lots of fall out from Saturday’s 3-0 disaster against Barcelona.
If you have the stomach to bear it, here’s highlights of Barcelona’s goals. I watched it live. Once is enough …
Soccernet.com’s resident Spanish scribe Phil Ball posted some paragraphs about Valencia’s ineptitude today. Have a go at it here or at the [...]
Desengaño
By: Cesar | 7 Comments
The Spanish word for ‘disappointed’ is ‘desengaño’ or something to that affect.
I’d say that’s a good word to sum up my feelings and most Valencia CF fans’ feelings this morning, the day after the Catalan hurricane touched down at the Mestalla, handing us our 6th straight shutout, 3-0.
It wasn’t so much that Barcelona [...]
