As expected and wrote about it a few weeks ago in this very thread.
As usual I prefer to look at events in a positive light although I am not pleased about this decision before we even know how this season ends.
At least it should give him a bit of job security (although he can still easily be gone at the end of the season) and added motivation to do what he needs to do. It did not seem to me that the club had any serious replacements in store for him that would be a guarantee of something better this upcoming summer. Hopefully the club will hire a top manager in 2020 if Valverde survives his tenure. More of such caliber of managers should be available and they all should find the challenge of a post-Messi (or semi-post Messi) Barça extremely attractive.
Not a fan of Valverde at all but what can you do? All the seniors want him to continue for obvious reasons and so do the board. There are not really any top managers available currently. The managers that might be available are no guarantee of success and of a similar level to Valverde. Most of them do not speak a word of Spanish and have zero experience in Spain. All major drawbacks for our board and most of our players who do not understand nor speak English.

More LSD to Barca board's office, please.
