25. ANTONIO VALENCIA

Birthdate: 04 Aug 1985
Birthplace: Nueva Loja
Position: Winger
Appearances: 0
Goals: 0
Joined United: 30 Jun 2009
United Debut:
International: Ecuador


Ecuadorian winger Antonio Valencia became United's first summer signing in 2009 when he joined the Reds from Wigan Athletic on 30 June.

The skilful 23-year-old has more than 30 caps for his country, including one in the 1-0 defeat to England in the 2006 World Cup. His performances at the tournament earned him a nomination for FIFA's Best Young Player award and raised a few eyebrows among Europe's top bosses.

It was Wigan boss Paul Jewell, however, who won the race for his signature and he arrived at the JJB Stadium on loan that year, having previously enjoyed stints in Spain at Recreativo Huelva (loan) and Villarreal. It was the latter who first spotted his talent, bringing him to Europe from Ecuadorian club El Nacional in 2005.

In his three seasons at Wigan, Valencia made 83 appearances, scoring seven times. One of his most memorable games actually came against United in January 2009, when he ran riot on the right wing in the Latics' 1-0 defeat at Old Trafford.

Steve Bruce, who spent two years managing Valencia at Wigan, regards him as one of the most exciting prospects in the English game. His pace and ability to go past a man and reach the byline were key to Wigan’s rise under Bruce, and his supply to Emile Heskey helped ensure the team’s survival in the top flight in 2007/08.

"Valencia has got that thing which not many players have anymore – the ability to dribble," Bruce said.

"People who can run with the ball, take it up the pitch and beat a man are a dying breed – there aren't many around. We don't produce players who want to dribble, we seem to produce the archetypal steady English player. If a player does want to take his man on and run with the ball, people will want to pay to go and see him."

Sir Alex Ferguson singled out Antonio Valencia for special praise, after the Ecuadorian laid on two goals in an impressive home debut.

The summer signing from Wigan Athletic crossed for Wayne Rooney and Tom Cleverley to bag the telling goals against Valencia, and generally caught the eye for his robust, direct approach at both ends of the pitch.

“The important thing for me was Valencia’s performance, I thought he was very, very good,” Sir Alex told MUTV. “He’s got great balance and he’s got power and speed. Coming to our club, he’s immediately taken the challenge well and with purpose, so we’re very pleased with what we’ve seen so far.”

While Valencia’s contribution merited special praise, Sir Alex could also reflect on a string of fine performances as his side deservedly edged an entertaining game. A glut of young talents hinted at a bright future, while the Reds’ forward line created chances with promising regularity.

“It was an opportunity to play a lot of the younger players,” he said. “Tom Cleverley scored, Darron Gibson had two fantastic shots from outside the box – he showed his power tonight, which is pleasing – and Ritchie De Laet and Fabio gave excellent performances.

“I also thought Macheda’s movement in the last third was fantastic. For a 17-year-old, he’s something special. Michael (Owen) showed marvellous movement. He should’ve scored four, but he was unlucky with the first one that he just chipped it over the goalkeeper’s shoulder and by the post. He deserved at least one of them."

Fergie Puji Valencia Lagi
Rossi Finza Noor - detiksport



Manchester - Sir Alex Ferguson senang dirinya tak salah membeli Antonio Valencia. Ia kembali memuji penampilan winger asal Ekuador itu usai menjadi bintang dalam laga ujicoba melawan Valencia.

Pada pertandingan yang dihelat di Stadion Old Trafford, Kamis (6/8/2009) dinihari WIB, MU meraih kemenangan 2-0 atas Los Ches. Dua gol yang diciptakan oleh Wayne Rooney dan Tom Cleverley semuanya berawal dari kreasi Valencia.

Sebagai seorang pemain sayap, Valencia melakukan tugasnya dengan baik. Ia beberapa kali melepaskan umpan, di mana dua di antaranya akhirnya berbuah menjadi gol. Tak hanya itu, pemain berusia 24 tahun ini juga tampil cepat menyisir sisi kanan lapangan.

"Hal yang paling penting untuk saya adalah penampilan Valencia. Saya pikir dia bermain dengan sangat bagus," tandas Fergie di situs resmi klub.

"Dia memiliki keseimbangan yang baik dan juga kekuatan serta kecepatan. Sejak datang ke klub ini, dia dengan cepat menerima tantangan. Jadi, kami sangat puas dengan apa yang kami lihat sejauh ini."

Sebelumnya, Fergie juga pernah memuji penampilan Valencia dalam laga debutnya melawan Boca Juniors di Audi Cup beberapa hari silam. Kala itu Valencia menandai penampilannya dengan sebuah gol.

Manajer asal Skotlandia ini pernah menyebut bahwa kepergian Cristiano Ronaldo akan sangat sulit untuk digantikan. Tetapi, jika Valencia terus berkembang dan tampil konsisten, siapa tahu Fergie akan meralat ucapannya.
