Tomorrow Milan will take on Livorno and eliminating the last game in hand that Milan has over the rest of the table. That means that with a win they will climb to 39 points and in firm hold of fourth place and ticket for the Champions League. I am ...

I'm not one to issue declarations (or at least, not anymore) but the last few games have me thinking we might ... *MIGHT* be back to a version of our winning ways.
I've said that before and been laughed at, no?
Well, this time I'm serious. I ...

Just a few things today as we get ready for another night under the lights in Europe….
- I was pretty bummed out over the weekend, with Fiorentina blowing it and all, at Atalanta. But I’ve been a bit re-energized by the certainty coming from ...

Looks like the winning ways are back at the Mestalla, courtesy of a 3-1 victory against Real Betis.
That's our first victory at home since late November and it's about time. Who would have thunk at the beginning of the season that it would take T ...

I keep hearing this "history" argument from Liverpool supporters in regard to our recent success in the Premier League. "You have no HISTORY!" Really, what is that?
I mean, is that a joke? Every club has history, some a rich tradition of succes ...

Scratch that fuzzy homecoming for wayward striker Miguel Angel Angulo.
Yesterday's news saw the scraggly-haired forward playing in a practice match.
Tongues started wagging, with pundits saying maybe Coach Ronnie Koeman had changed his mind. ...

Today's wire has a news story about the 'return' of broken-hearted striker Miguel Angel Angulo. I say 'return' because it's not really a comeback, more of a 'you're there, so wanna play?'
Maybe it's not significant that Angulo played a heavy part ...

In the euphoria of watching my first African Cup of Nations match (Ghana-Nigeria was one of the best football matches I've seen in some time) and the New York Giants winning the Super Bowl (WOW!), I didn't get to watch our beloved Valencia.
But g ...

Wish I had more time, so here's a short one ...
I thought we played sufficient against Atletico Madrid on Wednesday. We weren't great, but we weren't bad.
Silly first goal, with the ball rolling in off Cleber's leg. A goal is a goal, though ...

Well the day after a win is always bittersweet. I am still really happy about the win, but it has time to settle and I really start picking apart what I did not like. I guess we can start with what I did like though this time around.
-Rino and P ...

Lots to say today.
First off, we really need a victory tomorrow against Atletico Madrid. I'll be at my local to cheer the lads on. If you're around, please make sure to come.
This is a tide shifting match. Should we lose, I can honestly see t ...

We're in trouble. Serious trouble.
I didn't watch the match, but caught the last half commentary online.
Wow. This isn't good.
We haven't won a league game in nine matches, since November 10th.
We haven't scored in 4 home matches, equal ...

Coach Ronald Koeman seems to think a winning streak in La Liga might catapult us into Champions League contention for next season ... You think?? Sorry for being so condescending, but this has been such a long, frustrating season. It's hard to know w ...

Not bad last night against Atletico Madrid ...
Watched the match after work on a one hour delay although I knew the score at halftime (any one else have that problem? You know you're going to watch a match later in the day but as it's going on, y ...

Relegation.
One of the dirtiest words in football. Any fan worth his weight in ale hates the word, despises it, tries to run away from it as fast as he can ...
Valencia are in trouble, as we all know. But this much trouble? The R word?
No, ...

I dunno, can things get any worse?
Valencia look an awful mess and I'm not in the right frame of mind to extol positive virtues about Ronald Koeman's outfit anymore.
We stink. That's reality.
I'm a frustrated fan and that's about all I c ...

This one's brief.
There's SO much anger inside of me over this loss, a 3-0 drubbing to state rivals Villarreal.
But what good will it do me to rant again over our defensive failings, our lack of motivation, our lack of desire?
I've said it ...

I wish I had more time to write, so here's my 'Lazy Man's Approach to Blogging'.
Basically, I tell you the breaking news: Ajax midfielder Hedwiges Maduro has signed for Valencia.
Then, I copy and paste Reuters article about the signing ... co ...

Ya gotta love this.
Today in Tokyo, fans got together to protest against President Juan Soler and coach Ronald Koeman's dismissals of Angulo, Albelda and Cañizares. For a video of the protests, click here!!!
They're even angry in Japan!

We here in the States don't get the same match commentators you guys get around the world.
The games come to us via Gol TV, a wonderful channel that shows matches from Spain, Italy and various parts around the world.
I like Gol TV. Without the ...

-By the sheer grace of God the trance has been lifted from Silvio Berlusconi! He is no longer madly in love with Ronaldinho, instead he has turned his attention to other players. On top of that he claimed that, “We would not do anything to get hi ...

I had the pleasure of watching yesterday's match with -a, regular commentator and author of the wonderful and well-done Atletico de Madrid - The Love That Hurts blog at Nevada Smith's along with reader Daniel and a few others.

This weekend it's jornada 19, the unofficial halfway point of the season and an away trip to the Vicente Calderon for a match against Atletico Madrid.

Milan was succesful today in Dubai striking net twice in the friendly. It was not much of an affair to get excited about with two seperate Milan teams playing each half, with only Gourcuff seeing action in the full ninety. Gila bagged a pair in his ...

Sorry, had to post this little ditty from one of my favorite football journalists, Phil Ball, who writes a weekly La Liga column on Soccernet.com.
Nothing new here, but still ... We're just not that good right now, are we?

This, an article in today's BBC by South American journalist Tim Vickery about South American football prodigies making their way to Europe. In particular, he's talking about our newest signing, 'adult film star' Ever Banega. Is he ready? Is Valencia ...

My heart aches at the sight of my beloved Valencia CF these days.
What was once a formidable defensive machine, a club capable of fighting deep into Europe season after season has fallen off the rails with no end to the misery in sight.
This we ...

Here is the fixture list for the next two months, which Gonzalo pointed out is looking very crowded. I said back in November that December was a make or break month for the team, and they steered through it virtually unscathed. We were able to beat B ...
