We work to be prudent, we work for him to come, but we're ready in case he doesn't." Valencia drew 1-1 in their opening encounter of the new season against Atletico Madrid and next face Espanyol on August 26.Real Madrid meanwhile got off to a winning start with a 2-0 victory over Getafe and will meet Girona on the same day.</blockquote>
