Deportivo Alves was once a good team in Ueafa cup final. look at them now in the 3rd divition in spain.. 
Segund B

That happens when you have financial problems.. Unfortunatelly all spanish teams have to deal with it..
If spanish teams had EPL's teams budget i think they would be unstoppable..

Yeah still all Spanish team hasan ecellent youth system... Plus the economy isnt as bad as it was 4 years ago. My team Valencia for example has cut our depts extreamly much since 2008

that looked like a really good game for a cup final

@knibis, Partly due to selling Silva, Villa, and now Jordi Alba.
It's a shame really, I'd love to see Valencia contend for league titles again.
