I dont think Flores can fullfil potential of squad, otherwise, if barca wont be in top form, we can maybe attack campeon trophy, we can extended these 3 matches winning run.....

In CHL , there can be everything, if we will have some luck, we can get to the final

our league position isnt good, so Copa del Rey is important competition, i would be happy we win trophy

 

With the squad we have had available so far this season I'm not that unhappy with being 1 point away from the CHL, it must have been frustrating for Flores to pick up another injury every week almost.

 

Anything is possible if we beat Inter in the CL. I just hope we face them coming from a few back to back victories.

Del Horno will be back in the new year and we'll be looking like a team again. We havent played with our best 11 up to now and It'll be interesting what we can achieve when we have this side:

---------Canizares
Miguel--Albiol--Ayala--Del Horno
-------Albelda--Baraja
Joaquin-----------------Vicente
-------Morientes---Villa

That combination never played! Lets see what happens in the next few months.

That team is amazing, I can't believe how averagely Valencia are doing this season.

Maybe because that team hasn't been in action once this season

 

I think we can have a decent second half of the season now that almost all the players will be back. :thumbsup:

 

Definitely. If Albelda, Vicente and Villa stay fit, this team should keep rising up the table.

 

blaaaaah :irritate: :lazy:

Possibly the best squad in a decade, I had quiet hopes about challenging for the title. Then hitting a six game streak of not winning and suddenly it's mid table. :wallbang: I don't really know what to expect from this season, the latest CL form has been rubbish, meanwhile Inter are killing everything in sight. In the league we are miles behind and not good enough to contend, even though the recent form has been encouraging.

 

I expected so much for this season, as same as when that Clown managed VCF again... And I'm really dissapointed.
My expectation right now is to at least get UCL slot...

 

I think we'll get a CL spot. The key is beating Inter in the CL and if we do that, anything can happen.

For now though, we need a couple of reinforcements. We can't go on with only 2 natural strikers in Villa and Morientes. I hope Carboni is upto something.

 

What suprises me is that there isn't any news of our interest in any striker.come on Carboni or somebody,get ur ass to South America..

 

well, we're veeeery interested in Mata (who's idol is... yes, you have right, Guaje Villa!) but i don't really feel so great about him, we have Aaron who's a massive talent but only 17 years old

 

buying young players is great but what happens if there is an injury to villa or moro.a established striker needs to be bought.loan for saviola is not bad

 

A Saviola loan will be alright but we can actually sign a player with the wages he will demand.

I'd prefer Tevez over him.

 

I prefer La Liga players

Tamudo, D.Milito, Žigič:thumbsup:

Saviola interest me too

 

The good news is that the board is showing interest of signing a forward with Valencia being interested in Mata. They also want to register him in the CL.

 

Who is this Mata, any good? Also the names Vincent just mentioned are good options. One player I´d like to add to speculation is Fernando Cavenaghi from Spartak Moscow, it´s rumoured that Deportivo are after him with 8 million euro pricetag on his head!

 

And my expectations are that we get to CL next, whether by winning it this year or getting atleast fourth spot in La Liga, all else is a plus!

Mata is one of key Castilla player...
I think many madridistas like him..

 

mata is an 18 year old and i think he is a left sided forward.his contract is expiring at the end of the season.good prospect

 

We desperately need a striker if we expect to have a good second half. If we don't, this will put too much pressure on Villa and Morientes.

 

Rankings:

1.FC Sevilla 37
2.Barcelona 35
3.R. Madrid 32
4.Valencia 30

It's amazing how much shit can happen in 4 matches p. From 8th place to a chance for a title push.

Our next matches will be against Levante, Sociedad and Real Betis before we entertain Atletico at home. The first 3 fixtures are easy and the 4th one we play at home.

So what do you guys think, do we have a chance to push for the title?

 

What a difference an inspirational captain does to a team spirit.
Albelda:star:

 

It's amazing isn't it? 4 games he's back and we won all of 'em.

 

Quique Sánchez Flores:
"We’re Aiming To Win The Liga"

Valencia Coach Quique Sánchez Flores was pleased with the display his Chés put on as they harvested all three points on offer via a solitary yet scything David Villa goal against Real Sociedad at Anoeta.

The win keeps Valencia’s title bid on course, despite Barcelona conserving a post-CWC edge with a game in hand and two points over the team from the Túria, and the Coach is confident that the difference is surmountable and the Liga a real aim for VCF.

“We said in the summer that we are going for the Liga and when we’re in eighth place we’re going for the Liga as well. We’ve always had the same objective and the result is a step forward in the right direction", explained the tactician after the win.

Sánchez Flores praised the way his side had played as a solid block in the Basque Country. “Everyone pulls in the same direction, even with eight absences in our squad and the fact that we can rely on our bench makes a big difference."

======================================

Rankings:

1. Barcelona 38
2. FC Seville 38
3. R. Madrid 38
4.Valencia 36
5.Atletico M.35
6. Zaragoza 31

That’s 6 straight wins now and we are 3 points from the top. We haven't hit top form yet too. We should be ecstatic with our ranking when we still have Reguiero, Gavilan, Del Horno, Moretti and Edu out. Tavano needs a replacing as well.

I think Barca is the team to watch. They too will hit top form when Messi and Eto’o return. So unless something strange happens like what happened to Madrid in 04 when we overtook them, I see them retaining the title. Real Madrid are rebuilding and Seville drop too many points without any reasonable excuses. Atletico are very inconsistent.

I think we can expect a runner-up position this year under these circumstances. But you never know what could happen if we regain some injured players and replace Tavano.

In the CL, I'd be very content if we get by Inter, and I don't care how far we go after that. If we loose though, it'll be very understandable.

Amunt baby!!
