Ok i dont think anybody will disagree with me when i say that yesterdays match was far from pretty.

Our midfield was not fluid.

Our attack was lackluster.

Our wings fairly ineffective.

Our defense and goal tending however was vastly improved.

While i will say that Bruno is no substitute for Miguel on most days, he was sufficient on sunday.

So the stars have aligned and the weekend thus far has worked out beautifully for los Che to move up int he table.

A win in Almeria and we move up to 5th place and within striking distance of the top 4.

These are a vital 3 points.

Now Valencia, truth be told should win this.

Silva is in.

Based on their records coming into this fixture, the Valencia Atlético Madrid Saturday fixture did not look to be an appetizing match, but knowing each team's penchant to go forward, their stature in Spanish football, and their performances over the past few years, this game was the one to watch, and they did not disappoint.

The coaches of the CONMEBOL zone weighed in on each countries performance.

Bielsa is known for his disciplinarian nature, his obsession to details, unusual tactics, and nurturing of young players.

Guingamp will look to secure their 4th consecutive league victory tonight when they welcome CS Sedan to the Roudourou.

CS Sedan are yet to win away from home this season and Guingamp are on a great run at present but nothing is certain ahead of the game.

Gilmar has scored 3 goals in three games prior to tonights match and looks certain to lead the 'Red and Blacks' attack.
