Could this be true? Ranieri is a dark art manager with a streak dishonesty?

[Sionnach gorm]

Bollocks! Ranieri is just a good manager that understands his men and understands tactics. Don't buy this article at all. He just showed the big money guys who's the boss and who's the bitch! No secret at all. No hoodwinking. No deceipt!

Article below.

This be the Chelsea 'legends' that have got pretty much every manager the sack.

 

I hope he did treat them like shit

[foxes_rule1978]

Who cares regardless it makes him very clever and a great manager.

I've never read so much bollocks in my life

[Sir Shep]

The same paper that says s we've just won 3 nil, could have sworn we scored 4 but hey I guess the London media like to make shit up.

ive just read it for a 3rd time

 

what is he actually trying to prove ?

[ithuriel]

Colly should lay off the magic mushrooms 

[Chester Dontlie]

This is clearly bull... I remember Marcel Desailly said in one interview he had a good relationship with Claudio at Chelsea, he was just more demanding to his star players

[chuck'em]

That article doesn't actually say anything at all.

Confused as to why you're annoyed by that article? Thought it was pretty insightful, complimentary and interesting - I remember someone saying on here months ago that they'd had a chat with Laurent blanc over the summer about ranieri, and he'd said he's an excellent manager (especially defensively) but struggles man managing 'superstars'. Seems spot on to me. Ranieri's a very smart guy - when you are his interviews in any other language than English that really comes through. It's only in English that he has this 'jolly grandad' persona

[filbertway]

Yeah I don't see what is wrong with the article. Im willing to bet some people are annoyed and haven't even read it.

It's pretty pointless and just states the obvious but it's not an attack or a dig at Ranieri.

are you having a laff ?

 

its like hes trying to find and fuel some reason for having a go at Ranieri for whatever reason he thinks in his tiny little mind thinks important ??

[Richard]

Chelsea 'legend' probs Jody Morris

[Tuna]

Ranieri - Class act and a gentleman.

 

Collymore - Hit Ulrika.

 

End of.

[Izzy]

Can't see anything other than complements about us in that piece. Whats the problem with it?

[Foxxed]

I probably wouldn't have given this its own thread if I hated the article that much. Isn't it playing into the article's clickbait?

[Captain...]

It could have been an interesting insight, unfortunately it seems to have been written by someone with an agenda.

[The Doctor]

Not that unfair, Claudio is a lot cannier than he seems with the friendly grampa persona; although the idea that we've been targeting the title all season and deflecting it as just being about survival for the first few months is a bit ridiculous.

I genuinely can't see where he's having a go. Piece says he's managed expectations masterfully this season, and suggests that a team of hardworking talented players with no big egos suits ranieri's style of management more than a load of self-satisfied 'big names'. That seems about right to me.

That's what I thought, Ranieri is portrayed as intelligent, highly competent, ruthless and driven.

 

It's a great reference letter for a manager.

[Hungry Hungry Fox]

This should be in the 'do they mean us' thread

[Will1981]

Collymore should stick to dogging and beating up women because he knows fook all about football.

[hackneyfox]

I just don't see where there's an agenda or him having a dig.

This paranoia on here is starting to make it seem more like a Spurs or Arsenal board.
