That Villareal are 17th in La Liga! This is the team that were in the 2006 CL Semi-Final! They were in this years Champions League too! What happened? And also, I think that if they were to go down.. http://www.whoscored.com/Regions/206/Tournaments/4/Spain-La-Liga
They have some nice players that the PL could snap up.
Has anyone realised..

They have also drawn with both Barca and Madrid this season.

They went through an awful injury crisis that sidelined about 6 or 7 of their usual starters in the first half of the season; they sacked their manager and brought in the inexperienced Molina, who only made things worse. Now they've hired Lotina, who has a lot of experience with relegation strugglers and they're starting to grind out results.
The trouble for most Liga sides outside the big 2 is that their squads lack depth. Very often, their league performances suffer when they're in Europe, because their resources are too thinly spread. Add a severe injury crisis and they can collapse on all fronts, as in Villarreal's case.

Damn, I kind of want them to stay up. Didn't Rossi play for us for a bit?
