Six guys stand in a line. Fran Pérez, Pablo Gozálbez, Cristhian Mosquera, Diego López, Javi Guerra and Alberto Marí are taking it in turns to define, in a word, what has happened to them recently and what this all means. Behind them, the football pitch at the 2,250-seat Antonio Puchades stadium where they used to play, the final stage before the 49,430 Mestalla stadium where they play now. Ahead of them, their whole careers. They are young — one is 19, one 20, two 21 and two are 22 — they are in their Valencia training gear still, yet to shower after the morning session, and they are smiling.
