Despite his experience and obvious capabilities, Victor Valdés has not yet been selected for the Spanish national squad. He represented his country at Under 18 and Under 21 level but has not made the next step up. Although Spain is blessed with a number of talented goalkeepers, Barça fans remain a little mystified and annoyed that their 'number one' has been continually overlooked.
However, Victor Valdés appears to be totally unconcerned with all this controversy. His temperament has always been perhaps his strongest asset - enabling him to quickly put aside the inevitable mistakes goalkeepers make and to maintain his focus at all times. He continues to develop his reputation and to pass new milestones. For example, at the end of the 2007 season, Valdés matched the record of the legendary Zubizarreta by being on the pitch for every second of every league game. In the same season, he went for 466 minutes of Champions' league football without conceding a goal and now he has accumulated well over 250 appearances for his beloved Barca.
Although, of course, Barcelona fans, los culos, adore the goalscoring exploits of Messi and Eto'o, they always reserve a very special welcome for Victor Valdés - they feel that he is 'their' representative in the team - the local lad made good. This bond between player and supporters can be seen when Barcelona score important goals as Valdés seems to celebrate with the crowd as much as with his team mates. It's also noticeable that, although they are forever linked with players all around the world in every position, there never seems any hint of the club looking for a new goalkeeper.
Victor Valdés would certainly be a hard act to follow in the eyes of the Barcelona faithful.
