Copa del Rey - 1/32 Finals

The game is played this Wednesday in Lleida, against a Segunda Division team.

Stadium: Camp d'Esports (13,500 esp.)

Lleida is doing well so far in Segunda... and it's Copa. Man, this new system is better for the show, but I fear the Segunda B teams as if they were Milan.

Setzer · October 25th, 2004, 16:06

If you fear Segunda B teams, imagine Lleida...

I hope the team is interested in this competition, it's a title after all! And Ranieri knows this very well, Valencia won the Copa in 1999 when he was our coach. Lleida has good players (Óscar, the ex-Barcelona player, Jovan Stankovic...) and they will be very motivated... if we're too confident, we'll lose.

I think Valencia is going to get hit hard, I will be surprised to see if they advance

Almogàver · October 26th, 2004, 00:31

I've voted NO, I think that the players don't trust in Ranieri anymore. It seems the situation that Barça lived with Van Gaal. 2nd parts were never good.

Setzer · October 26th, 2004, 09:56

Damn, I'm the only one that voted yes

We kinda need to win this one.
I hate to say crisis, but they need to start winning again.
It's like the players have no confidence or desire anymore.
Was last season's success too much for us?

Playing Aimar in a Cup game is a stupid idea.

Ziad · October 27th, 2004, 15:26

I'm anxious to see if Caneira confirms his good game against Inter. I hope so, we need a solid defender with Marchena in the middle.

We're out... Leida - Valencia: 1-0

Does this respond your question? SuperDeportes cover tomorrow:

"Manda huevos (eggs)" is a vulgar expression that means "unbelievable" (more or less)

"Estamos fritos, Ranieri!" is another vulgar expression that means "We're very tired, Ranieri!"

Tears4Fears · October 28th, 2004, 05:24

OMG, we are falling into another crisis under the stupid hands of Ranieri
He truely sux

Bye bye Copa...

Last 6 games: 5 defeats and 1 tie. My grandmother would do a better job if she was coach

Obviously, we're going through a big bump. But let's see what happens in the next two games against Atletico and Inter. If these don't go well, then I think Ranieri will most probably be sacked.
Keep in mind, Benitez never did well in the Copa del Rey.
