If Valencia continue to keep making good signings and Victory keep losing their players, we may see Valencia challenging for the title again and Victory scrapping out in the relegation battle.

Congrats.Valencia youngsters totally outplayed Victory in all departments of the game. So is this the big HAPPENING Valencia has been talking about in pre-season? Its a pity with all the hype and big talk of Valencia Chairman Valencia did not even have a name of a sponsor on their shirt. Big talk and no work I guess and no output. I wonder whether this is how VALENCIA will be managed in 2013.A

Does the Sponsor play in the tournaments or does the sponsor brings results? whats important is the team won and got the 3 points from the match. they should focus on the next game and work hard to win it. I think "Eleven" does not know much about how football works

If "Sonee Sports" on the BACK of the jersey is the "HAPPENING" that Valencia was bragging about, that says something about their management style. To me that looks like a "WHIMPER"!!!! According to some sources "Sonee Sports" at the back was the deal for getting the jerseys free of charge. The Club is struggling to get a main sponsor, and with each day passing and each match played, devalues the exposure and hence reduces the amount of the money a sponsor is willing to pay for the front of the jerseys. Also having one sponsor at the back means the whole jersey cannot be sold to a single sponsor, again devaluing the value of an exclusinve sponsorship, as the marketing jargon goes. So it has "NOT HAPPENED SO FAR".. The chairman and the Vice Chairman elect has to roll up their sleeves and get more work done to get the money rolling in.
