Wymsey Posted 8 February 2017 Share Posted 8 February 2017 If Ranieri was to be sacked, Pearson would've been a no-brainer had he had no issues with creating arguments that creates in-club havoc. His own downfall, due to his tough self-centred approach, is due to his own ignorance. He's a bit of a bomb scare in his attitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every one of them bar none has been a false dawn. We have backed up every single win with an abject loss or performance. We have so far, but that doesn't change the fact that another couple and thinks flip again... The only point I'm making is that we're not rotten, no where near, just struggling. Rotten is much deeper than that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really? The man who has won league titles & cups in three countries, and the Europa League predecessor? Teams managed 1977–1978 Degerfors IF 1979–1982 IFK Göteborg 1982–1984 Benfica 1984–1987 Roma 1987–1989 Fiorentina 1989–1992 Benfica 1992–1997 Sampdoria 1997–2001 Lazio 2001–2006 England 2007–2008 Manchester City 2008–2009 Mexico 2010 Ivory Coast 2010–2011 Leicester City 2013–2014 Guangzhou R&F 2014–2016 Shanghai SIPG 2016– Shenzhen FC Post millennium the guy has been a con man. Won nothing. Spent loads. Sven was terrible here. Sacked at City. Wasted the best England squad ever. Just because he gets jobs because of his reputation doesn't make him a good manager.

Pearson told fans "if you don't like it, don't come" and "fvck off and die", would you like Ranieri to do that? Ranieri is a saint but if there's one man who could get that type of response from him, it's SeanFromEnderby. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UpTheLeagueFox Posted 9 February 2017 Share Posted 9 February 2017 Would Pearson have been able, like Sven, to lead England to quarter finals of major tournaments and win European trophies? No Would Sven have been able to build what Pearson did in tiers three and two, on and especially off the pitch? No Different horses for different courses.

Did well for man city iirc and got moved on for the new owners - a la Pearsons first stint here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny Clender Posted 16 February 2017 Share Posted 16 February 2017 Just read Pearson's comments in The Merc. The Man doth speak. Really good interview and nice to hear from him, nice points and sounds very positive. I just need somebody to misinterpret the interview now, please, go on.
