According to Super Deporte, Valencia legend Fernando Gómez recently gave an interview discussing the club's current difficulties, manager Corberán's situation, and captain Gayà's future. He stated that Valencia is not facing short-term performance issues, but rather structural problems that have accumulated over years.

Fernando Gómez believes that Valencia's avoidance of relegation in recent seasons has bred unwarranted complacency within the club.
"There are far too many structural issues that need to be resolved quickly, but in reality, many of them could have been avoided earlier," he said. "Because we've managed to avoid relegation season after season, we've developed an unjustified and unreasonable sense of calm."
Fernando's stance became more pointed when discussing club ownership. He believes Valencia's majority shareholder should have stepped down long ago, and similarly, the club management responsible for sporting affairs must also be held accountable.
"I think the club's majority shareholder should have stopped being the majority shareholder a long time ago," Fernando said. "I believe the professionals managing sporting affairs could do better, even with all the funding they receive."
At the same time, he criticized the club's lack of transparency, believing management should explain the reasoning behind major decisions to supporters.
"No one at the club explains to the fans why these decisions are made," he said. "There's no sporting director who occasionally holds a meeting to explain why these decisions are made."
Fernando's assessment of Corberán was equally clear. He stated that while he doesn't support frequent managerial changes, in his personal view, Corberán shouldn't have started this season with the team.
"I don't think Corberán should have started coaching this season, but since he already has, you shouldn't have extended his contract for another year."
Fernando believes the club's decision to extend Corberán's contract at that time seemed rushed. "You shouldn't have given him another year, because he hasn't earned it yet. If he proves himself for the rest of this season, then another year would be acceptable."
However, he also emphasized that he doesn't want Corberán to fail, because if the manager ultimately brings the team to success, Valencia will still benefit.
Fernando also discussed captain Gayà's future. Currently, Gayà has one year remaining on his Valencia contract, and the club has offered him an extension. The Valencia legend believes Gayà needs to seriously consider his career, and his decision should be based more on sporting aspects than financial factors.
"When you've been here a long time and things aren't going well, fans always see the same faces and sometimes get tired," Fernando said. "I think the main reason for making a decision should be more about sporting aspects than money."
Regarding this season's objectives, Fernando set modest expectations. Given Valencia's current situation, he believes successfully avoiding relegation would be enough.
"As long as they can avoid relegation, I'm satisfied. I won't ask for more... and I think that's straightforward enough."
