Bloody hell, of course Valverde is a decent appointment. Who are these amazing managers queuing up round the block for an interim appointment?
I'm afraid we can't approach it with an inflated sense of what we are actually offering, yes we're Man Utd but it's a caretaker role. It's going to be somebody with a bit to prove, that is absolutely obvious - why would someone in the peak of their career that's won loads recently and is without flaw take on an appointment where they're a caretaker for a few months. Just total nonsense. Top managers in their prime come with some kind of ego that they're the main man, they don't want to play second fiddle to Ten Hag and Poch. That's why you get someone that sees this as a shop window. Maybe they've cocked things up lately despite doing some good things, or maybe they haven't managed for a while.
If we can get a Rangnick or Valverde that are very experienced, creditable names we will have done a very solid job. I'd prefer the former but if he's unconvinced then we can't fanny around either, the sooner it's sorted the better chance we rectify our league form.
