Jose Gaya - Ruled out against Barcelona Gaya (quadriceps) won't play against Barcelona on Saturday, manager Ruben Baraja told media, including Conrado Valle of Diario AS, on Friday.

Impact Gaya didn't train Thursday and was not part of the training session Friday either, and Baraja considered it "a risk" to include him in the squad, considering he didn't train throughout the week. Jesus Vazquez or Yarek Gasiorowski are options to replace him on the left side of the defense, while Gaya's next chance to feature will come against Rayo Vallecano on Dec. 19, the final game of the year for Los Che.

Jose Gaya - Still not training Thursday Gaya (quadriceps) has yet to return to training and is not expected to be available to face Barcelona on Saturday, Javi Teruel of Diario AS reports.

Impact Gaya trained separated from his teammates Thursday, and while the club has not made it official, his chances of playing against Barcelona are slim to none. If that's the case, then Jesus Vazquez might end up playing on the left side of the defense due to the amount of absences the team has on that line.

Gabriel Paulista - Sent off Paulista was sent off during Friday's 1-0 loss to Getafe for a pair of yellow cards.

Jose Gaya - Still out Friday Gaya (quadriceps) will not be available against Getafe on Friday. Manager Ruben Baraja told reporters, "He doesn't make it to tomorrow's game even though he is trying. He hasn't be...

Impact If Gaya can get back into first-team training next week, he could be an option to face Barcelona on Dec. 16. In his last five contests (all starts), the left-back registered one goal on three shots (one on target), 14 crosses (four accurate) and 19 tackles (12 won). Yarek Gasiorowski should continue to feature in the starting XI while Gaya is sidelined.

Impact Mamardashvili was doing an excellent job by keeping the league leaders to a clean sheet through 75 minutes, but the goalkeeper's effort melted down when he conceded two goals to Christian Stuani in the dying stages of the match. Despite the final outcome, Mamrdashvili should remain in the starting lineup when Valencia takes on Getafe on Friday.

Impact The right-back made his second start of the season and was extremely active on the attacking end, but he didn't have a lot of activity on the defensive end.

Impact Yaremchuk scored the only goal during Tuesday's 1-0 win. The forward has made just two Liga appearances for Valencia and has yet to score in a major competition. Still he seems to be showing some good form when called upon and his role could be set to grow.

Hugo Guillamon - Active Tuesday Guillamon got the start and played 90 minutes during Tuesday's Copa del Rey win over Arosa.

Impact Guillamon was back in the starting XI on Tuesday his first start of the year. It's been tough sledding for Guillamon who has yet to make a start in La Liga, and seems to have fallen entirely out of favor.

Jaume Domenech - Starts in cup Domenech got the start during Tuesday's 1-0 Copa del Rey win over Arosa.

Impact Domenech was back in the starting XI for Tuesday's win. He remains the backup option and will only see minutes in cups or when Giorgi Mamardashvili is injured, though he is a competent backup.

Jose Gaya - Will not play Saturday Gaya (quadriceps) will not be an option for Saturday's match against Girona, per manager Ruben Baja. "We have tried to assess the situation that he could be in, but in the end no,...

Impact Gaya will miss just his second match of the season after picking up a quad injury against Celta. He's totaled 19 tackles (12 won) and 14 crosses (four accurate) in the last five matches. Yarek Gasiorowski will likely get the start at left back during his absence.

Jose Gaya - Comes off at halftime Gaya (undisclosed) was forced off at halftime during Saturday's 0-0 draw to Celta Vigo.

Impact Gaya is questionable for Saturday's trip to Girona after picking up another injury. He had started the last five matches in a row since returning from a hamstring injury, recording a goal with 19 tackles and 14 crosses (four accurate) in that span. If the defender is ruled out, then Yarek Gasiorowski will likely get the start at left back for the team.

Pepelu - Sends seven crosses in draw Pepelu registered seven crosses (two accurate) and four corners in Saturday's 0-0 draw against Celta Vigo. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 87th minute.

Impact Pepelu was a constant crossing threat for Valencia, but unfortunately, most of his deliveries failed to find a teammate. Pepelu remains an active player in midfield, and the playmaker should continue to have a decent floor due to his involvement going forward as well as the creativity spark he provides.
