#7 Joan Capdevila
Spanish defender Joan Capdevila is another talented player to be managed by Ernesto Valverde during his time at Villarreal. An able wing back who could maraud on the flanks, Capdevila was talented enough to be named in a Spanish national team that was dominated by players from heavyweights Real Madrid and FC Barcelona.
Capdevila established himself as the first-choice centre-back for Villarreal under Valverde. The Spanish defender was an important presence in the 2007-08 season, as Villarreal achieved the Champions League spot after finishing runners-up in the league. Although he continued his exploits under Valverde, Villarreal failed to qualify for the UEFA Europa League after finishing seventh in the league.
