i think i have to agree with bob on this one.. Almendras, maybe he meant Villa for the big signing.. and you know, im like more satisfied with villa staying.. and there were no big names actually on the transfer list.. so, im still happy with Soriano.. and that Valencia Experience thing, i never thought of it.. i remember looking through the internet for it and finding nothing, but i didn’t think that it stopped or something.. and since Soriano said that it’s being worked on, then no worries.. though i wanted Villalonga all the way ( like all of us ) but, seems like the snake knows something about what he is doing.. Amunt!

but things are beter ,there is no koeman at the club,there is no lardy arse jabba soler at the club,silva and villa are both still at the club.
that is truly remarkable who honestly would have believed we could hang on to those two at the end of last season????
also for the first time since benitez we have a manager who isnt bertie big bollocks and who is completley sure of himself.this club has turned the corner,have faith and wait.amunt

Hi, well the first comment would be never never believe anything you read in the papers, but then we already know that dont we. However we have to take this as a political answer, I myself heard Soriano on TV to wait for the 26th August when he will announce a new big signing…result,nothing. The news about Zigic, Maduro and Viana proving useful is false because they could find no buyers
Info on players for those that dont know.
Regueiro and Estyanoff have been cut loose.
Sisi,Arizmendi and Gavilan have been sold
Sunny,Butelle,Gonzalez,Chispa,Navarro,Banega,AAron,Castells,Miku,Jordi Alba,Lillo Montoro, have been lent out.
Chispa plays for Numancia and had a good part in beating Barcelona on Sunday….Adios Almendras

Some wise answers, of course he could not and should not answer every question, cause it is simply not his business or not in the best interest of the club / associats to tell more (regarding Mestalla-selling for example).

But, there is something about this guy which gives me the creeps. Ok, he has been a stockholder for a very long time, even when Soler was president he had the 2nd most shares, before that he already was vice-president. But, everytime i see this dude he gives me the feeling we let in a snake. Soler was terrible, terrible president, Villalonga is a great businessman but it was not the right way to enter this club. Now we have Soriano, a Valencian man, businessman, giving good answers in his interviews, doing what he promised and thats good. It appears he is doing good for Valencia, tho is wished they signed better players this transfer window.

I mean, if you are really objective, than you see Valencia has not become better. Ok, we held on to our big stars, but we didnt reinforce our weakest points and so we overlooked one thing: stagnation is decline. If we remain the same, we will be weaker. And so we are, cause our defence will prove we are not ready to be serious challangers. Lets hope our attack stays intact, so they can score more goals than our opponents put in…

(sorry for my pessimism, but for the last 4 years we have been the same, never really changing and improving our defence, nor our midfield, which makes us weaker everytime we put our faith in Baraja, Albelda, Helguera and Moretti)

Valencia experience seem to be “friends” of the Villalonga administration who they signed the sponsorship deal with and when their “friends” were replaced with the Soriano administration Valencia experience began acting unprofessional, refusing to send over financing plans and refusing to give the first 2 million of their six million euro sponsorship deal. if Valencia change sponsor they will incur the cost of changing their shirts and other branded equipment. the whle situation is ridiculous, outside companies should not involve themselves in the politics of Valencia. whatever happened to businesses being professional and honoring their contracts.

where does calcio come from in italy? it’s just the american way of saying it, doesn’t make it wrong. Hey Cesar, I am offering my translating services to you! hahaha I kid, it was really pretty good. Anyway, I like the bread for today, hunger tomorrow comment, said intelligently. I don’t really know what to make of this whole interview… I feel like he really didn’t say much. He says that the economic situation will be hopefull fixed soon, but I just didn’t feel convinced… if they don’t sell the Mestalla land for a good bid they’re gonna have some problems. And what is up with that Valencia Experience thing??
