They were just better than us today ... Valencia is still the measuring stick in this league, as they have been for the last 10 years or so.

It was a pure striker’s goal, born of instincts and developed after a series of passes freed up James Riley to whip in a cross down the right flank. Four minutes later it was canceled out by a David Estrada strike after John Alexander Valencia whiffed...

The team has a lot of confidence right now and this is very important. The game against Valencia is precious because it is against a big rival. Logically it will be quite different to that against Sporting. The atmosphere won't be so tense, but the points are important and there will certainly be intens...
Portland—Troy Perkins in goal. Jack Jewsbury, Hanyer Mosquera, Eric Brunner and Steven Smith on defense. Kalif Alhassan, Diego Chará and Eric Alexander at midfield. Darlington Nagbe, Kris Boyd and Jorge Perlaza at forward. It looks like the 4-3-3...
They played with a commitment and enthusiasm that belies their stature and they truly deserve to be where they are, all credit to Brendan Rodgers and his gutsy bunch of players. Rodgers has had his philosophy influenced by teams like Barcelona and...

You have to go game by game and depend on ourselves and not be looking at anybody else. We have many beautiful things to achieve. The rivals will be there, there are nine points to play for. Not only is there Valencia, Levante will also be there until the end. Atletico are also having a great time and w...
I had a bad feeling the NMAA would put Los Lunas ahead of us at No. 3 because of their 23-2 record ... We played Valencia twice and scrimmaged them the past three years. We know they are a good young team and they are scary. We have to play. It won't be an automatic bid to Rio Rancho.
He [Valencia] is a rare breed these days, a self-effacing Premier League player content to let others take the headlines
He is a great player of great courage and wonderful skill who has been crucial to Manchester United's challenge for the Premier League title this season. Wayne Rooney may have had another brilliant campaign for United but it is Valencia who has loaded the bullets for him.
We know the importance of this game against a very tough opponent. We will threaten them from the beginning to make things complicated. Valencia have many other important players, beyond the striker [Roberto] Soldado. The important thing is to put in a good performance and seize all the extra motivation
But five years is unfair because Valencia won the league in 2002 and 2004!
But the noise the fans made was tremendous and they responded to what the team was doing on the pitch. They understand that the players are giving everything. But we have an important game to play on Thursday (against Valencia) and we can’t stop to think about this or enjoy it. There is no time as now w...
I don’t want to take anything away from Valencia but Muniz did not help us ... It is incomprehensible that a foul in our favour ended in a goal for the opposition and it made no sense when he sent off our player: he was unlucky. Their first goal was very dubious and there was also a handball by Albelda ...
I do not know when they [Real Madrid and Barcelona] play, but I do know that we play on Sunday at the Vicente Calderon against Espanyol, before the biggest game of the season against Valencia
We came here looking to make up time lost due to my missing the Valencia test and having limited time at the Malaysia and Jerez tests, but it was pretty much a wash ... It's a shame because Ducati gave me the opportunity to come and had a race-spec GP12 here, along with my whole team.
What concerned us tonight was getting the victory and with it a good advantage to take into the second leg. Goalscorer Ricardo Costa, meanwhile, believes there is everything to play for after his header at least kept Valencia’s hopes alive. The score allows us to keep dreaming about the final as we know...
The rivalry between the two clubs is an historic thing but it is so intense because these days in Spain it is about Barcelona and Real Madrid more than ever. It is one or the other that wins the league whereas Valencia or Atletico Madrid, or even Deportivo La Coruna, used to be involved in the title rac...
That’s baseball ... I make a ton of mistakes out there, and the fielders are going to make mistakes too. It’s part of the game… When I look back at the first tinning, the big mistake was hanging a slider to Valencia. The base hit that got through on the left side, you kind of say, alright I can live wit...
I think the semi-final games could work in our favour because Valencia are also just one step away from a possible final. Tiredness may come into it with regard to the league, provided we keep on picking up points. But if we don’t then it will not mean anything
We are fourth with five games left and three points ahead of the fifth-placed team. The most important stage of this season is still to come and we will fight for third place as we are one point behind Valencia, who still have to visit La Rosaleda. We have five finals left.
Right now I am only focused on this week’s game but the final in Bucharest is a dream for everybody ... However, first we have to face Valencia and it will be very difficult.
He is our striker, like [Fernando] Llorente at Athletic Bilbao, [Roberto] Soldado for Valencia, Cristiano Ronaldo for Real Madrid or [Lionel] Messi for Barcelona
I will not reveal anything regarding the lineup. I am well aware of who Kaka is and of his good performances in Champions League matches. It wouldn't be intelligent on my part not to use a player with such virtues. I count on Lass this season and the next. He wasn't called-up for the clash against Valen...
We’ve been focusing a lot on the match racing in the last six weeks back in Valencia. So it was good to see all the hard work that we put in pay off. These events are a great to test the metal of our team in the match racing, but there is a lot more work ahead of us. It is a long road to the America’s C...
We were better than Valencia in every facet of the game ... We clearly deserved the win over an adversary that is in third place.
We are all very excited about Barcelona. Any person who likes football most love the way they play. At Valencia we beat Barcelona in the semi-finals of the Copa Del Rey so I know they are not unbeatable
It is normal that other clubs now talk to my agent that I am at the end of my contract ... But I insist that I'm just thinking of the remainder of season. I'm at home in Valencia, I never said anything bad about the team or city. The NBA is still my ultimate goal. I look ready to leap. If I am not now, ...
I hope to be playing for one of the top four in Spain next season- Real Madrid, Barcelona, Valencia or Sevilla.
