Valencia — Best pictures!

The world’s best rated player at the moment—Atletico Madrid forward Diego Forlan—will face his next and final test in La Liga this season when his side take on Alameria: his plank to beat will be a high 25.80 rating points, which he set in the 3:1 win

Valencia will try hard to secure a win and a Champions League berth for next season when they travel to Villarreal on Saturday, but their number one weapon, striker David Villa, even if he scores, has practically no chance of avoiding a drop in the ratings.

Inter Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic (pictured), who scored a goal in his side’s 3:0 win over Sienna in Serie A action yesterday, finally entered the FTBL European Top 23 after earning 23 rating points to take his tally to 171.98 points over all.

Atletico Madrid will host Valencia on Sunday with their eyes firmly set on a place to next season’s Champions League, while strikers David Villa and Sergio Aguero will throw in a battle for rating points.
