I wonder who will sign Rossi for about £5million. I bet Villareal regret not selling him to Juve or Barca for over 30million now.

well they were a Segunda Division team only a decade ago

Not really..... Borja is overrated more by you guys more than i overrate Enrique and Senna is past it......

Cazorla ran that team, without him it fell apart not that hard really.

Rossi to Psg or Roma

Nilmar to Valencia please.

lol

Borja will move to Malaga, he had a choice between Malaga and Atletico depending on CL.

Bruno is going to Valencia to replace Tino most likely

Nilmar back to brazil i guess

Rossi is not gonna be available for a year anyway, so no team will sign him i suppose.

This was a couple weeks before the season started.

And they deserve it. To sell the brain of the team who came up through there youth system to keep an overrated trader is the height of stupidity. Maybe people will now recognize how good Cazorla really is and great creative midfielders are the hardest thing to find where forwards are a dime a dozen.

I also said it was not a coincidence that Borja had his best year ever while playing next to Cazorla and he really isn't that good (look at his career) when people on here had the balls to say Borja was better then Cazorla.

Well there you go folks. The cream rises to the top. From penthouse Champions League (playing with Cazorla) to the outhouse relegated (without Cazorla).

Maybe now we can have an intelligent discussion on what Cazorla is really worth, and how good he really is. I mean I doubt it since no one watch's Malaga play but at least you have this to go by now and can stop giving all of the credit for what Villareal accomplished to Rossi, Nilmar, Senna, Borja, Capdevilla and the likes of players who Cazorla has always been head and shoulders better then.

Doc wrote:The bubble finally burst I see. Well, to be fair, they deserved such a punishment for such an awful season. As much as I admire the side, no one is immune to such things. Anyway, the problem is that this was gonna happen sooner or later. Villareal is the quintessential small club, a town whose population holds 51,000 while their stadium holds 25,000. A team that was build on the very generous wallet of Fernando Roig who made his fortune in the ceramic industry (Pamesa).

Eventually, his generous ways would have worn out and Villareal was destined to be able not maintain such lofty expectations (given their size). The great thing is that Villareal made serious investments in scouting and their youth set up so relegation would probably not be the "death" of them.

All in all, I'm not happy by it but it's how it is really.

Doc wrote:Yes, Zapata is really like a Perea, just worst off since Perea never had that much of a reputation anyway. For the sake of sakeness, send Zapata back to Italy, apparently he is good there...

I say Borja is off to Malaga, Rossi to random Italian team for 10 million, Bruno to Valencia, and they rebuild the team. They have the players. IF they keep the rest and change coach, they could easily be Segunda champions next year.

From fighting for La Liga to fighting for Segunda in 4 years

They got relegated cause they scored 39 goals in 38 games...thats pathetic

yeah their whole attack without Cazorla and Rossi was just terrible.

A classic scenario of a Villarreal game last season: they dominate, show some slick passing, miss a couple of chances, then they take a goal on a counter, they cant get back into the game, and it's over.

Lol @ Mou's reaction, classless prick

And proves Nilmar, Rossi etc, probably overrated as always.

I feel bad for the likes of Senna though, absolute legend, does not deserve this

Rossi was injured the entire season
