    and paying for an obvious talent like Soldado is not throwing away money!!


    I'm not saying that Soldado should take it if the offer is placed upon his table... Just that if he indeed did, he is not far off from being sensible

    For £15m they might get Aduriz. Not Soldado.

    I think that £15m figure is a bit of an insult. I mean, yeah Valencia is currently in red but, how much did Chelsea bought Mata? Should be £20m at least iinm.

    When's the next Spain call-up? It's about f'n time Soldado had a shot. He's very clever at timing his runs, and of all Spain's shooters, I think he's best at putting a shot on target (with power and accuracy) on the first touch. He's made some great volleys and half-volleys this season. His efficiency is comparable to other excellent scorers (like Messi): about 50% of shots on target, and about 25% of all shots are goals.
    It's all quite simple, really. Just ask yourself...

    The only way to make a profit in European football, is to buy a club with loyal and generous fans (hello England) and then under-invest for as long as possible. Liverpool's spending was thanks the sales of Torres and Mascherano. Now that Liverpool has no one on their roster that can be sold for lots of money (except their only world class player) nobody in his right mind can expect the Americans to splash money around (it's really bad for the bottom line) Even if some good players are brought in, there is no certainty whatsoever that Liverpool will get that top 4 position. (City, United, Arsenal, Chelsea and Spuds look better than them)

    The Americans will soon bail.

    Liverpool getting the 4th place is pure comedy... a team that cant score more than 1 goal per game has no place in the CL
    Thank you Pep, forever in our hearts!!!

    Not the 6 times they won the league or the time they beat Arsenal to win the Cup Winners Cup?

    The UEFA Cup win was nice and all but the Cup Winners Cup was bigger IMO.

    The CWC was great too.

    Most Valencia fans would identify their 2 consecutive CL final appearances as their greatest moment.

    Did't they win one Fairs Cup as well?

    Edit: They won 2 Fairs Cups. Club with some history!

    Most of the Valencia fans I know rate the Benitez team higher than the Cuper one. I liked the Cuper team more personally, but it can go either way - La Liga was ridiculously strong at the turn of the decade.
