The footballing world was shocked when Skysports pundit and former Manchester United defender Gary Neville was announced as the manager of Valencia CF for the rest of the season.
Manchester United legend Gary Neville is taking over at Valencia CF in the Spanish La Liga and the news has taken the footballing world by storm.
While some were surprised by the randomness of this decision…

… A lot of people were sad to see him leave Monday Night Football, where he had some great banter with Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher, who himself tweeted his sadness at Neville’s exit.
Gutted! This reminds me of when Pegguy Arphexad left for Coventry. https://t.co/M535r7L2qo a Jamie Carragher (@Carra23) December 2, 2015
My dislike for Gary Neville in his playing days really rescinded when he became a pundit. Likable guy actually and a fantastic pundit. a Dave Oa Connell (@DaveOCKOP) December 2, 2015

As an #LFC supporter, I’d never thought I’d say this, but am gutted Gary Neville is leaving Sky Sports. The best pundit around by a mile.
