Valverde hopes to make emotional return to Bilbao a winning one

Ernesto Valverde praises Luis Suarez's effort in front of goal, despite missing an open net in Barcelona's win over Malaga. After a whirlwind first 100 days of his tenure at Barcelona, Ernesto Valverde hopes the next 100 will be more quiet. In 1990, after two years as a Barcelona player, Ernesto Valverde joined Athletic Bilbao in a deal worth 125 million pesetas (around €750,000). Almost 30 years later, he's back at Barcelona, but Athletic, he says, remain the club he most identities with.  "Regardless of your career, all the teams you've played for, every person has a team they identify with and mine is Athletic," Valverde said in an interview with Barca's official website this week.   Athletic Bilbao Barcelona 6:45 PM UTC Game Details Home: 6/1  Draw: 7/2  Away: 9/20  Odds from bet365 bet365 PickCenter GameCast Lineups and Stats Valverde was born in...
