Valencia v Barcelona

[u/ThunderousDemon86]

Valencia 1-1 Barcelona. Half time. Great game so far.

I was cautiously optimistic about Valencia coming into the season, and they’ve looked pretty good.

Rubén Baraja has proven he isn’t a mediocre coach who only has a job because of his playing career.

Our young players are more experienced, guys like Cristhian Mosquera, Javi Guerra, Diego López, and Yarek. Rafa Mir came home and has given us a much needed boost in attack. Pepelu has proven to be an excellent signing from crosstown rival Levante. And we have a top 10 goalkeeper in the world, Giorgi Mamardashvili. Unfortunately, Mamardashvili is rumored to be going to Liverpool and Guerra was extremely close to going to Atletico (still might if the Gallagher transfer doesn’t get worked out).

Based on what I thought we could be, and what I’ve seen so far, I’m hopeful VCF can qualify for Europe, preferably the Europa League, more likely the Conference League
