		<description>Greetings to all...

1.) All time World Cup moment? Bergkamp&#039;s goal, Argentina v. Holland 1998

2.) One match in the history of Valencia you wish you had attended? The King&#039;s Cup Final in 1999, Atletico Madrid v. Valencia CF 0-3. (In fact I would have liked to be at ALL of Valencia&#039;s matches of the 1998-1999 season; watching them on TV, it was clear that something extraordinary was going on in La Liga.) Mendieta&#039;s goal in the 33rd minute made him a household name in Spain, Luis Milla added a feather to his cap, and Valencia became a force to be reckoned with.

3.) One scoreline you wish you could reverse for your favorite team? 3-0 Real Madrid v. Valencia in the 2000 Champion&#039;s League Final, as it would have been one less trophy for Madrid.

4.) Five favorite players for your favorite team, past or present? - Miroslav Djukic, Jocelyn Angloma, Gaizka Mendieta, David Silva, Faas Wilkes

5.) Five favorite players to have never played for your team, past or present? Seeler, Dunga, Nesta, Ribery, Nakamura....

6.) Maradona or Pele? - Pele

7.) David Villa or Piojo? - I prefer Piojo, but Piojo with Ilie, Piojo by himself didn&#039;t impress me, especially with the Argentine national team. 

8.) Aimar or Banega? - Banega for his fitness and spirit, two things that Aimar doesn&#039;t have and which has kept him from becoming one of the greats.

9) Canizares or Zubizaretta? - Cañizares

10.) Least favorite player of all time, past or present? -John Carew

11.) Do you have a second club? - No, what would be the point?

12.) One player right now you would add to your team, past or present, dead or alive? - Juan Sebastián Verón, because Koeman needs a better assistant than Bakero.

13.) One football dream you wish to see in your lifetime? Valencia winning the Champion&#039;s League

14.) Most prized football possession? Don&#039;t have one.

15.) Finally, who is the best player in the world right now? ...Luis Fabiano?</description>

		<description>1.) All time World Cup moment? - Apologies to the Americans here, but it would have to be USA 1 Iran 2, at the 1998 World Cup. However, if you asked me about the All time European Cup moment, it would of course be the amazing Yugoslavia 3 Spain 4 in Bruges in 2000, when Spain came back from losing 3-2 to score two goals in injury time, winning the match 3-4 thanks to Mendieta&#039;s level-headed no-nonsense penalty.

2.) One match in the history of Valencia you wish you had attended? - Would have to be that 6-0 v Real Madrid in the Copa del Rey semifinal in 1999.

3.) One scoreline you wish you could reverse for your favorite team? - The penalty shootout in the CL final against Bayern Munich. Walking around Milan afterwards was horrible, far worse than Paris the previous year.  

4.) Five favorite players for your favorite team, past or present? - Ayala, Kempes, Claudio López, Mendieta, Puchades

5.) Five favorite players to have never played for your team, past or present? - Silly question - any of the greats, I guess... Pele, Maradona, Cruyff, etc etc

6.) Maradona or Pele? - Maradona

7.) David Villa or Piojo? - Piojo

8.) Aimar or Banega? - Aimar

9) Canizares or Zubizaretta? - Cañizares

10.) Least favorite player of all time, past or present? - Predraj &quot;Judas&quot; Mijatovic of course (isn&#039;t that every Valencia fan&#039;s least favourite player??) 

11.) Do you have a second club? - Not really, but I live beside West Ham stadium so kind of follow them, but rarely go to their matches.

12.) One player right now you would add to your team, past or present, dead or alive? - Possibly Roy Keane? Always been a massive fan. Not of the person, but of the footballer.

13.) One football dream you wish to see in your lifetime? - Valencia winning the Champions League. 

14.) Most prized football possession? - Got a lot of programmes, but my most prized football possession has to be my memories. I&#039;ve been to some cracking games, whether it was going to see Valencia-Betis and them lifting the cup in Mestalla in 2001, or in Gotenburg seeing them win the UEFA cup...  

15.) Finally, who is the best player in the world right now? - Hmm, Kaká I guess.</description>

		<description>Ali,
In response to your comments
a.) Cesar does a good job for us..Unlike some of the other bloggers on this site, Cesar write frequently, and I appreciate that. What i was saying in my message was, Hey Cesar, &quot;we know your busy,(or maybe dont feel like writing it)and you might be too busy to cut and paste, so why not try and let one of us help you out. Why not have a guest blogger once? Maybe letting a reader of this blog be selected and let them try and write an article on the team once?  Thats all, I was getting at.
He got us all to fill out that questionairre and that was fun. Cesar probably didnt expect so many responses I assume.

Ali, to your second point...

I dont like Koeman as the man in charge of the squad. He is in a results based business and he has not produced results. Our Champions League chances are slipping away with each and every point. He(Koeman) has not produced, improved results or changed the club to move up the table. He should be fired.</description>
