35% - Stoke City had the best crossing accuracy in the group stages of the Europa League (35%). Wings.

ahahahaah oh gawd just saw our lineup... 4 regular starters Laughing

guaita - bruno, rami, dealbert, mathieu, topal, tino, feghouli, jonas, piatti, aduriz Laughing

gj emery, if we win it'll be a *bleep* miracle, if we lose, we can legitimately claim valencia don't give a shit about the competition

mind games :bow:

It sucks really...19/20 years these united/city squads would qualify and Stoke would have a legit chance

Now it's next to impossible

I agree, UEFA can't expect clubs to take the Europa league seriously when they go and invalidate all the hard work of the clubs who get this far only have to have the CL drop outs dumped on them. They don't want to be there, the EL competitors don't want them there, why bother?

by che Thu Feb 16, 2012 10:05 pm

bhends has gotta choose a different team for his hipster self to support :coffee:

How did the game go?

Where are those few that were serious about Stoke troubling Barca?

by RealGunner Thu Feb 16, 2012 10:06 pm

Valencia should have won 3-0

that should tell u the story lol

Valencia troubled them consistently on corners lulz ... Who'd have thought it? :vagi:

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Thu Feb 16, 2012 10:09 pm

Britannia is a myth.......

They won 10 from 19 in thier first season, 7 from 19 in thier second season, 10 from 19 in thier third season and won 4 from 12 this season......

And lost 19 games in the last 3 and a half seasons at home.

There's alot better home records in the PL than Stoke's.

I still didnt see Valencia score from a corner like i wanted to tho Sad

Che, Bhends team is now Swansea Very Happy

by The Franchise Thu Feb 16, 2012 10:10 pm

With that team they had out....well...

Was it raining aswell as cold and in Stoke? I assume the rain makes all the difference.

in final minutes it came to my mind and just laughing at people
even blaclpool beat them in a cold night at britannia

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Thu Feb 16, 2012 10:12 pm

The rain is easily avoided anyways Dani, when we played them Danny Simpson had a towel in his shorts that he used to wash the ball at every break in play lol.

As i said its a Myth......

by Doc Thu Feb 16, 2012 10:14 pm

Jonas had a fine game today. Man, where did Valencia find this gem....

by Ganso Thu Feb 16, 2012 10:15 pm

Jonas was top scorer in the brasileirao last season..3M,what a steal.

Another wont perform in Europe myth broken

by Sina Thu Feb 16, 2012 10:15 pm

scouting
how much soldado or piatti would cost Arsenal? eco smile

by Doc Thu Feb 16, 2012 10:18 pm

Jonas was just being a boss today, I really enjoyed him today. Piatti was getting rough up at the start but he got the feel of the match and was constantly a menace. Of course, Topal's shot made me my day. All in all, a great win for Valencia, good for them...

by The Franchise Thu Feb 16, 2012 10:18 pm

LOL Found out.

How many corners and long throws did Stoke get roughly? How much possession did Valencia have?

by Le Samourai Thu Feb 16, 2012 10:23 pm

RIP Britannia and Ainfield Sad

1.25 mil actually, and that's american dollars so in a non-silly currency probably something like two cows and a snickers bar

by Pedram Thu Feb 16, 2012 10:25 pm

Stoke is just overrated by some premface and english pundits. they are really nothing.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Thu Feb 16, 2012 10:25 pm

That's the funny thing Dani, pretty much every cross and throw in Stoke had was claimed by Valencia's GK, i can see alot of PL clubs looking at him simply for that reason......

Oh and Valencia actually caused Stoke problems with crosses and Corners for a spell of the game Laughing

As for possession ESPN says it was 50 % each Laughing
