Hola Cesar, I was laid off too just recently, so I can sympathize. Let me know if you want me to help with Los Che as well on the blog. I truly love the backpass that El Guaje performed to set up Fernandes. Mata is sensational and the “old boys” have really stepped up their game. Here’s to El Vasco Unai. I hope we see some more great games from Ximo (Joaquin). I am counting the days when Silva returns. One returns (Marchena) another drops (Albiol). Crazy. The UEFA cup group draw for Valencia looks very do-able.

I dont see Maduro as a cover for RB…he just obliged the coach. Curro Torres has been perpetually injured but given his age, we cant count on him.

I do not think there is alot wrong at Valencia at the moment, I was at the Mestalla on Thursday when the miracle man made ten changes to the team that played Deportivo- the squad were also suffering from a virus sweeping the camp. Anyway my point is strength in depth plus the tactical formations that occurred throughout the game- in fact the only weakness I see is in keeper as I am still unsure about Renon although Guiata had a good solid debut. With Maduro and Del Horno good cover at right and left back – it was great to see Marchena play at first in midfield before he went to centre half when Albiol was injured. With Helguera as an able deputy , although he went off and was replaced by Albelda later in the game- the midfield is full of great players and with a fully fit Vicente and Baraja on their way back and cover from players such as Viana and Pablo, no concerns – R Madrid , Atletico and Barca beware- Los Ches are back – fighting!

I think I disagree with you on Angulo Timothy. I think the worst player that I’ve seen play for Valencia in the last 10 years was Gonzalo de los Santos. Don’t know if you remember much about the Uruguayan, but that guy made Angulo look like fatman Ronaldo in his prime. Shitty, slow, passing ability of an 8 yr old… THAT guy is the shittiest I’ve ever seen in our shirt

Nov 23 away at Sevilla

Nov 30 – home vs Betis

Dec 7 – away at Barca

Dec 14 – home vs Espanyol

Dec 21 – away at Madrid

Jan 4 – away at Atleti Madrid

Jan 11 – away at Villareal

not an easy 7 weeks for ANY team in the world. Espanyol can be tough opponents to crack too and home game against Betis seems to be the easiest one. I’d be happy if we take 2 wins and 3 draws from this.
Of course more is better…)

We need to win our first 3 games so that we have some room to breathe in December when we have the tougher games in La Liga.

Also, a chance to make amends for our awful performance against Rosenborg last year in Champions League.

Shit man didnt we get into the group with Feyenoord? Feye was drawn with our poule, but was suddenly put in the last poule. Good group tho, no real problems ahead, we can take it easy!
