Valencia legend slams Gary Neville appointment on Twitter

In all the excitement on these shores after Gary Neville's appointment as Valencia coach, it's worth remembering not everybody is happy.

Former Valencia goalkeeper Santiago Canizares has taken to Twitter to express his displeasure at someone as inexperienced as Neville being given the top job at one of Spain's biggest clubs, citing his relationship with club owner Peter Lim as the reason the former Manchester United captain was given the job. In a series of tweets, Canizares said: 'Gary takes control of Valencia as a result of his friendship with Lim. Whether he is a good or bad coach is just a guess. A riddle. 'Lim seems to be very suspicious, and he has chosen a friend and partner who has a coaching license. Gary is a football man, who has earned respect through his work. I wish we had eleven Garys at Valencia. 'But the problem remains, there is no management or criteria met for his... If it goes well it is a coincidence.' https://twitter.com/santicanizares/status/672894121208582144 https://twitter.com/santicanizares/status/672894161058701312 https://twitter.com/santicanizares/status/672894200762015748 https://twitter.com/santicanizares/status/672894239148220416
