Levante-Athletic (5 may 2012) Publicado por Deรกn Burrier Sanchis

Europe Awaits the Best Levante This Sunday at 8:00pm in Spain (2:00pm EST), La Liga will play its final round of games, with battles still wide open for european positions as well as salvation. Fates will be decided for many teams, including Levante, the darling little team that has hung around all year with the big boys. Nine months of effort, courage, pride, perserverance and glory come down to 90 minutes. Will Levante be able make the most of those 90 minutes and obtain a European spot? 3|Page

HOME versus Sporting de Gijón AWAY at Villarreal AWAY at Real Madrid HOME versus Athletic Bilbao AWAY at Racing de Santander AWAY at Levante AWAY at Espanyol

Currently, Levante is not in a european position (Only top 6 go to Europe). Levante will need to win and hope that one of its European rivals (Málaga, Atlético Madrid and Mallorca) does not take full points. If Levante manages to beat Athletic Bilbao, fresh off a very dissapointing loss to Atlético Madrid in the Europa League final, one would believe that Levante should be able to obtain a European spot as its three opponents do not have easy tasks either. Málaga perhaps has the easiest test, a home bout with all but relegated Sporting. Mallorca has been able to beat Real Madrid in the Bernabéu in the past and will be looking to do it again, although Madrid will certainly not want to have a loss dampen the spirits of its La Liga title celebration (the trophy will be awarded to the team at the conclussion of the game). Atlético Madrid, fresh off the Europa League win, will be heading into El Madrigal, said to be a sellout, sea of yellow, as Villarreal will be fighting to avoid relegation. Osasuna should take 3 points away from already relegated Santander. So much will be decided in such a short time span. The tables will surely be shuffling constantly with each goal that is scored this Sunday, and seemingly so will be the narratives that will be written and the histories that will be told about each team. However, for Levante, those narratives and histories should not be any less triumphant or proud of this team and this club if los granotas ultimately do not finish in the Top 6. This has been a dream season. A first time manager (Juan Ignacio Martinez “JIM”), a forgotten face from Segunda (Barkero), a washed-up striker (Koné), yet another stellar campaign from a 36 year old Centre Back (Ballesteros), the emergence of arguably one of the best midfield tandems in all of La Liga, one a Málaga reject (Xavi 4|Page

Torres) and the other (Iborra), a humble, home-grown player, the Joker (Juanlu), a goalkeeper who ages like a fine uruguayan wine (Munua) and the subtle genius (Valdo), all came together like a perfectly strange puzzle, with all their oddities, years of experience and plenty of interesting story-lines. In the last thirty-two La Liga fixtures, Levante has only been out of the top 5 in the league standings in two occasions, meaning missing out on Europe would seem like an injustice after such a long, consistent run. Yet, even if Levante does not end up qualifying for Europe, this season will go down as the best season in the history of the club and this team will most certainly be remembered as the best Levante. Los granotas have more than enough reasons to celebrate this season in The Four Stations fountain into the wee hours of the morning with or without Europe. ยกA la fuente!

MAY 30, 2012

Player Evaluations & Awards (2011-12) Publicado por Deán Burrier Sanchis It is time to look back on the 2011/12 campaign and look forward to next season. Today, we will be evaluating the contributions of each member of the Levante squad to what was, beyond all doubt, the greatest season in the club’s 103 year history. Goalies *Gustavo Munúa (37 league starts) – Unlike last year, Munúa never left any doubt that he was the #1 goalkeeper. In the 2010/11 campaign he lost his starting role just 4 games into the season to Manolo Reina, though he would later earn it back. This year he was the best defensive player for Levante. He produced many magical saves, like Negredo´s penalty in Sevilla. Without his consistency, something he lacked the season before, Levante would not have finished in a european spot. I am hard-pressed to remember any boneheaded plays or goals he should have saved. An outstanding campaign, perhaps the best of his career, for the Uruguayan.

A+

Keylor Navas (1 league start) – Keylor was a little shaky in his few starts in Copa, conceding several away goals (3 vs. Depor and 3 vs. Alcorcón). Within the club he has earned a great deal of respect and admiration. His humility and work ethic have been very notable throughout the season. Somehow it was not surprising when he filled in for Munúa against Athletic Bilbao, in the decisive final game of the season, and helped lead the team to victory. He saved some tough shots, one from Fernando Llorente stands out. Though we have only seen limited glimpses of Keylor, Levante fans are really hoping he is able to return next year. That will most likely depend on whether Albacete, the club with his rights, earns promotion to Segunda or not.

B-

Spring - Primavera 2012


Defense *Javi Venta (24 starts, 25 appearances) – His early season form was excellent, showing off some of his best form, even assisting Koné in his historic 1-0 goal against Real Madrid. Midway through the season Javi´s form dipped. He seemed physically exhausted and not as solid defensively as we have come to expect from him. Part of this may be JIM’s insistence on not using rotations or giving him a rest, but essentially no one is calling for a renewal of his contract. At 36 years of age, this was probably his last year as a profressional.

B

*Ballesteros (36 starts, 1 Liga Goal, 1 Copa Goal) – The pillar, the quiet leader and brute force of the defensive line completed perhaps his best campaign ever, certainly his best in a Levante shirt. He scored goals (including one from outside the box against Depor in the Copa), outraced Cristiano Ronaldo in a sprint and helped carry Levante to Europe. In the last few games, he showed signs of breaking down (showing a little more tiredness than normal and even needing to be subbed against Mallorca), leaving us hoping that he can still be at his best next year and that this was not his last great campaign. A+ *Cabral (15 starts, 16 appearances, 1 Liga Goal) – When Nano left, many were concerned if Gustavo Cabral could fill his spot. Cabral’s performance the second half of the season did not leave us missing Nano at all. He was quick, solid in defense and even scored us a brilliant goal in the Bernabeu from a set piece. Levante fans are hoping that he can return next year, though the club have no means of paying his million euro buy clause. B+ *Juanfran (28 starts) – Like Ballesteros, Juanfran seems to only be getting better with age. He showed the quickness and foot skills of a 20 year old. He has signed a contract extension and beat out Asier Del Horno for the Left-Back position. Let’s just hope he does not kick any tables or chairs playing at home with his daughter (he broke his toe doing precisely that, forcing him to miss several games and training midway through the second half of the season. A Pedro Lopez (17 starts, 21 appearances) – A great signing and a great replacement for Javi Venta. Struggled against quicker opponents (See film of matchup with Jeff Montero from Betis/Villarreal), but nonetheless was good at reading the moves of those attacking him. His adjustment back to First Division football and to Levante have been great and hopefully that transitions to a better campaign next season. He has beaten out Javi Venta and earned his spot over the course of the year as the starting right back for next season.

Spring - Primavera 2012


Asier Del Horno (12 starts, 13 appearances) – It is very sad to think that this might have been his last campaign in a Levante shirt, maybe even his last as a professional. Injuries stopped him from being the standout force he was last year. Juanfran beat him out for the Left-Back spot, and Cabral’s quick adaptation left no room for Asier. His contract has ended and it would be very surprising if he were offered a new contract. ¡GRACIAS, ASIER!

B-

David Navarro (3 starts, 4 appearances) – It is hard to evaluate Navarro. He signed in February, after delaying to see if another offer arrived, which left him little time to show anything. In the few games he did play, notably a win away against Real Sociedad, he interchanged notable breakups with dangerously slow passes back to Munúa that led to several heart attacks in the stands. Nonetheless, it would be nice if he stayed on next year, particularly if Cabral cannot return. C+

Defensive Midfielders *Vicente Iborra (27 starts, 32 appearances) – Quite simply, Levante is lost and confused, and too easy to beat without Vicente Iborra. It is absolutely incredible to watch what IBO is capable of doing during a game. His long range passes, defensive breakups, clearances and the occasional header and long-range shot really showed that he was at his best this season. He recognized his area for improvement in a recent interview, stating he needs to get to the opponent’s area more often and create more danger with shots. Other than that, Levante fans are hoping and praying that no one shows up shopping for Vicente this summer and that a new contract offer comes with a higher exit clause to reflect the tremendous growth of this wonderful canterano. A *Xavi Torres (31 starts, 33 appearances, 5 Goals) – Made an excellent tandem with Iborra. When both played together, Levante played its absolute best football. The counter-attacking style depends on having Iborra and Xavi Torres give everything they’ve got to block shots, close down defenders and break up passes. Xavi showed his best goal scoring side this season as well: 5 league goals from a Defensive Midfielder say a lot. If Levante manage to pull off a miracle before this Thursday and reach a deal with Xavi, it will be just that: a miracle. A+ Farinós (18 starts, 29 appearances) – For most of the season he seemed like the piece that did not fit. His taking over a starting role for Vicente Iborra, after the historic 7 straight wins, led to a dramatic slide in the team’s form. Iborra replacing him in the lineup led the team back to 8|Page

Champions League placing form. It is still unclear if Farinos can fulfill the more defensive responsibilities that Levante need from him. He does not cover ground well or read his opponents very well. At the end of the season he showed signs of improvement, the only hope saving him from a worse rating. BPallardó (8 appearances) – Played just 129 minutes over the course of the season, most of them junk minutes. It is really hard to say what this season was for Pallardo, other than a huge disappointment. Will be 26 at the start of the new season, and though he is a good backup for Levante, one cannot help but wonder if he would be better off somewhere else.

N/A

Right Midfielder *Valdo (31 starts, 33 appearances, 7 Goals, 6 Assists ) - A genius, the best way I can describe Valdo on the field. He completed another exceptional campaign in which his dribbling, passing and finishing were fundamental for Levante. No doubt his career has been resurrected in Valencia. He found the net 7 times and setup his teammates to do the same on 6 other occasions. He really has shown he has a lot of futbol left in his boots. Let’s hope he’s still lacing those boots up for Levante, at least for another season. A+ Nabil El Zhar (9 starts, 22 appearances) - Showed some signs of real brilliance, but mixed that with some disappearing on the pitch. He was brilliant in the second-leg of the Copa against Deportivo, finding the net and sending a long range assist to Barkero for another goal. In the league, his best performance was against Real Sociedad. He ran the Real defenders crazy throughout the game and provoked a key penalty. He is a great player to have already lined up for next year, the second of his two year deal, but fans and coaches will be hoping for more consistency from Nabil.

B-

Center Attacking Midfielder *Barkero (29 starts, 31 appearances, 7 Goals, 9 Assists) - How on Earth was this guy still in Segunda a season ago? Barkero is an incredible player for Levante to have, perhaps the best creative inside midfielder Levante have seen and will see in a long time. His passes, set pieces and goals lifted this team to European form. Thankfully his contract was for two seasons, though maybe three or four would not have been a bad idea. Hopefully Levante can pull off another

Barkero-like signing from Segunda, a market much more accessible and yet still abundant in talent. A+ Rubén Suarez (7 starts, 25 appearances) - THE SUPER-SUB. Coming off the bench as a regular, Rubén still managed to net 8 goals, 3 of them in dramatic fashion. His last minute free kicks against Real Sociedad, Espanyol and Villarreal turned a 1 point draws into victories. Without those 6 additional points, this season would not have been all that it was. Though his form is not good enough over 90 minutes (he typically shows some poor physical conditioning), he is the best sub Levante can have. Just having him on your bench gives you a quick chance to completely change up a game. Quico, PLEASE RESIGN RUBÉN!!! A

Left Midfielder *Juanlu (12 starts, 18 appearances, 5 Goals, 1 Assist) – Though injuries and JIM left him out of completing the season the way he would have wanted to, Juanlu’s amazing start to the season, where he netted all five of his goals in the initial games, left him miles ahead of the other players at his position. It really was sad to see him out for so long and then have to see him playing behind Botehlo. However, he should be fresh at the start of next season when he will be dearly needed again as one of several Levante players with prior European experience. He scored Osasuna’s first European goal, will he score Levante’s? ABotehlo (18 starts, 25 appearances) – At times a complete train wreck and at other times showing signs of being a young star. Botehlo has to figure out what is more important to him: partying or football. If he really dedicated himself to football, he could really be someone, but as is he seems like more of a star fallen off. Most likely, he will never star for Arsenal or Levante. His future will probably be in another team. B Oscar Serrano (7 starts, 14 appearances) – In his second game he came on to assist Koné in the Bernabéu, but one is hard-pressed to think of anything else that he did. Levante fans are disappointed that he was given a two-year deal when he signed from Racing in the winter break. Serrano did not show much of anything for Levante. Let’s hope the summer break and starting the preseason with Levante can make him be a more important player for the team next season. C

Spring - Primavera 2012


*Koné (33 starts, 15 Goals, 3 Assists) – Even people who do not follow Levante know what this season meant for Koné and just how important he was for Levante. His ball control was really his best characteristic. Levante need a striker who can hang onto the ball and make something of the few attacking chances Levante have in some games. Koné was better than Caicedo at scoring goals, controling the ball and combining with teammates. Though Caicedo was probably a better finisher, Koné was healthier throughout the season. Levante have signed him on a 2 year deal, but all projections point to Koné exiting to the Premier League, leaving Levante looking for a replacement striker, again. A Ghezzal (9 starts, 16 appearances, 2 Goals, 2 Assists) - Was streaky. After his winter loan deal, he started off wowing the crowd with an almost-goal long shot against Racing, but then went months without scoring. An assist to Kone against Betis at home and a double against Athletic Bilbao were highlights for him. The goals against Athletic being his first in over a year for him. Levante fans will always remember him as the goalscorer of the European placing 3-1 win. B

Winter Transfer Departures Nano – It was very sad to see Nano leave for China. He was a pilar in the defense along with Ballesteros. However, Levante could not say no to the 1 million euros his transfer brought in. A Arandá – Showed some good skill moves in his limited appearances, along with a couple of goals. However, he was terribily out of shape and showed no signs of improving. Additionally, his attitude was poor, he seemed to believe he should be starting over Koné. Levante fans were very happy to see him leave for Zaragoza, where his attitude came out in the media (refusing to listen to Jimenez´s pregame talk against Osasuna).

D

Héctor Rodas – Did not play before going out on loan to Segunda side Elche. Contributed several goals, including a double in one game. Lots of hope and fan admiration are placed in him as the best fruit to come from the youth system since Iborra. Next season will be an important decider as to whether his long-term future is blue and granate. N/A Rafa Jordà – Had not been given minutes to show much of anything. Has scored 3 goals so far in China, playing for the same team as Nano. Attitude and professionalism were always topnotch from Rafa. N/A

Player Focus:

Vicente Iborra Publicado por Deán Burrier Sanchis Vicente Iborra has arisen like a shining pearl, formed after years of frustrations and very drastic changes in circumstances at Levante. His rise took a lot of patience, hard work and constant support from the club. At age 19, he debuted as a tall and gifted striker with the first team in the King’s Cup and a few days later in La Liga, during the club’s last stint in the top flight since its most recent resurrection. He was one of a handful of players to stay with the club after relegation, though with a new manager in Luis Garcia Plaza came a new position: center midfielder. Now 24 years old, Iborra has embraced his new role and has quickly become one of the best defensive midfielders in Spain. Why Iborra is Key to Levante’s Success Iborra has long been the subject of heated debate in Levante forums. Supported and defended loyally by some supporters, and belittled by others who demand more from him or see more value in other players not formed in the Levante Youth System. This year, thanks in part to those dedicated fans, it has become unmistakable that Iborra is an essential player for Levante.

Fans have run statistical studies on the games he starts to show that, since his reappearance from injury last winter against Almeria, Levante has a much greater win percentage and point total when Iborra plays with any other combination of midfielders than when he is absent. The team rose from the dead last season with his reappearance against Getafe and Almeria, posting two key wins in the promotion campaign. He quickly won back his starting role and the team went on an unprecedented run of points. In the 2011/12 campaign, Iborra started with incredible form, helping the team to a historic streak of seven straight victories. His sudden absence from the starting 11 led to not only the ending of the streak, but also a downward streak where the team went several months without posting a victory. Manager Juan Ignacio Martinez, aka JIM, finally gave in and benched Farinós against Real Madrid. Iborra posted an incredible first half, frustrating Madrid’s attack again and again. An unfortunate hand ball in the penalty area sent Iborra off and completely changed the game, allowing a struggling Madrid to tie and later take the lead against a numerically inferior Levante side. After serving suspension, Iborra played one of his best games all season against Espanyol, helping the team pull off a shocker and, in his return to a starting role, end the string of games without a win. Iborra’s statistics also demonstrate his tremendous quality as a footballer. Though he may not score goals or give the last pass that goes down in the books as an assist, he does an incredible amount of work behind the scenes to create offensive chances for his team. For starters, he wins back the ball from the opponent many more times than his competitors in the Levante midfield, Xavi Torres and Farinos, and Iborra gives up possession many times less than both. In the statistic of clearances, Iborra is far in front of both again. These are the two statistics that should be most valued when analyzing the effectiveness of defensive midfielders. Put simply, Iborra destroys the other team’s attack and launches counter-attacks, a vital asset to a team like Levante with a counterattacking style of play. 14 | P a g e

National Team Prospects: #IborraSelección During Levante’s historic run of seven consecutive wins, SuperDeporte reported that national team coach Vicente Del Bosque was scouting Iborra and considering the possibility of naming him in a future team sheet. To earn a spot on the national team, Iborra would have to compete with the likes of Xabi Alonso, Javi Martinez and Sergio Busquets, a very tall task considering all three were on the World Cup Champion roster, and that they are big names and very decorated players. However, Javi Martinez has been playing as a Center-Back for Athletic Bilbao recently and was even listed as a Defender on Del Bosque’s last team sheet. It would not be surprising to see Martinez play there for Spain this summer, as this is a position with less competition: Pique has been in and out of form, Puyol is pushing the age limits already and will surely be in need of rest come June. With Martinez in Defense, it would seem that there is a potential need for another defensive minded midfielder. Keep in mind, though Spain is known for the Xavi and Iniesta, creative midfielder prototype, it was players like Marcos Senna, Xabi Alonso and Sergio Busquets that have also been vital in Spain’s recent success. In comparing, Iborra’s ratio of winning and losing possession with that of national team starter Xabi Alonso, Iborra actually comes out the victor. Iborra loses the ball much less than Alonso and wins possession at a much higher rate. At 1.40, his ratio is significantly higher than Alonso’s. In a national team that has dominated the world soccer scene with a style of play based on dominating possession, it would seem that this statistic is very important to analyze. While it still seems unlikely that Iborra would make the Euro roster, one can hope. While Levante’s European aspirations are still in dispute with 7 games remaining, it should be noted that in the past modest clubs such as Villarreal, Getafe and Mallorca have seen their success and European placements were rewarded with their key players being selected to compete in the 2008 EuroCup. With a national team, like Spain, that has enjoyed incredible success in the last few years thanks in large part to the competition within its own ranks, as 15 | P a g e

well as the humble contributions and hard work attitude that characterizes the reserves. Del Bosque would be making not only a bold decision but also, in my opinion, a correct one. Spain is not just Real Madrid and Barcelona, nor is Spain limited to a short list of “Grandes clubes”. Little clubs, like Levante, doing amazing things, thanks to great players like Iborra, deserve this kind of recognition for a job well done. A Decisive Summer 2012: Will he stay or will he go?

This summer proves to be an interesting one in the Iborra saga. He is overdue for receiving some serious attention from economically more powerful clubs both in and out of Spain. Only this season has his name begun to appear on transfer short lists at clubs like Sevilla FC and Atletico Madrid. Club President Quico Catalan has spoken out quite emphatically, something not usually seen from a president who prefers not to enter into the sporting realm, leaving those matters to sporting directors and coaches, stating that he wants to make Iborra “The new Ballesteros”, a symbol for the club and a hero for all the fans, a strong marketing image to represent the club in all facets. This week in an interview with AS, Iborra admitted he would love to assume this role at Levante. Time will tell whether or not Iborra decides to stay and under what conditions. Playing in European competition has to be a factor. If Levante can beat out Sevilla and Atletico Madrid for a spot, it would seem illogical for Iborra to want to leave Levante for a move to those clubs. Beating Atletico 2-0 this past weekend does not hurt either. Indeed, if Iborra stays, it would mean that he does not feel that he needs to leave the club to grow as a player, something that would speak marvels of what Levante has accomplished in such a short time. 16 | P a g e

El año que viene Levante-Liverpool Publicado por Deán Burrier Sanchis Illinois, EE.UU.

Comparto una casa alquilada con dos compañeros de mi universidad que son del Liverpool FC. Mis compañeros son extranjeros haciendo sus estudios en EE.UU., donde no hace falta explicar que no hay mucha afición por el fútbol europeo. Sin duda, nos conocimos y nos convertimos en amigos por esa pasión rara y compartida por el fútbol.

Todavía me acuerdo del día que empezamos a hablar. Yo siendo muy tímido, saqué un poco de confianza para comentarle a uno de ellos, el noruego del par, que me gustaba su camiseta del Liverpool con el nombre y número de Fernando Torres en la espalda. Aquel momento empezó una amistad que pronto se trasladó a una amistad con el otro, de Birmania.

Aquel verano hice un viaje de estudios en España y me contagió el levantinismo que era para mí una forma de honrar y conectarme con el barrio que mi abuelo tuvo que dejar 17 | P a g e

atrás, El Cabanyal. Al principio, mis compañeros no me tomaron en serio. “Pensábamos que eras del Madrid”, decían. Al final, les obligó a aceptarlo porque sólo hablaba del Levante día y noche. “¿No viste el partido del Liverpool? ¿Ni el gol de Gerrard?” me preguntaban una y otra vez con insistencia y yo, con indiferencia, les solía responder “¿Vosotros no visteis el golazo de Rubeninho?”. Se convirtieron en costumbre nuestras bromas, las suyas con un tono más arrogante. Seguían despreciando al Levante. Les costaba entender por qué uno se haría de un equipo pequeño.

Ahora, las cosas han cambiado. En sólo unos años, se nota el respeto que ha ganado el Levante y los levantinistas por todo lo que hemos conseguido juntos. El domingo me dijeron que, visto cómo yo vivía el Levante y el trato que recibo de los levantinistas, “Esperemos que ganéis”. Yo les proponía que si el Levante se clasificara para Europa, daríamos una vuelta por la universidad en mi coche.

Gracias a los goles de Ghezzal, por un día pudimos compartir una felicidad tremenda. El birmano conducía mi coche, con la matrícula “LEVANTE”, mientras que yo enseñaba una bandera levantinista por la ventanilla, con la música de Lliure llenando el aire al igual que la bandera. Las caras de perplejo que recibimos eran un poema. Ojalá con el paso del tiempo las caras se conviertan en sonrisas. Si hemos llegado hasta aquí ¿por qué no? si el año que viene podríamos poner blaugranes al vent por campos como Anfield.

Esta plantilla histórica, el cuerpo técnico y todos los empleados del club, con el apoyo fiel y apasionado de la afición logramos algo que era impensable durante más de un siglo. Con nuestra unión parece como si fuéramos un puzzle por la manera en que enlazamos, tanto así que nos hemos convertido en un auténtico rompecabezas para nuestros rivales. ¡Felicidades a toda la plantilla y todos los levantinistas! ¡Som equip europeo!
