Moreno has been an absolute revelation for Valenica this season, and has scored several crucial goals to take Valencia to second in the league table. With 6 goals and 3 assists to his name, Moreno has shown the capability to deliver the final product on a regular basis.

The former Benfica forward rewarded Lopetegui's faith in him by the opening goal in Spain's 3-0 victory over Albania. With Diego Costa out of favour with the national team, this could be Moreno’s make-or-break season.

Valencia have historically been a successful side, worthy of the Champions League. They are showing signs of returning to their very best this season, with excellent players in several key positions. Moreno has certainly made his mark on the manager, and has become a regular starter at the club.

Performances against Real Madrid and Barcelona are generally most indicative of a striker's success in the La Liga, and Moreno will have a chance to truly shine against Barcelona in the coming weeks.

With Valencia's excellent start to the season, fans at the Mestalla will certainly be expecting some silverware this season, and Moreno will have to perform at his best for their dreams to come true.
