Stadt Posted 8 October 2015 Posted 8 October 2015 (edited) Ranieri's 64 the week after next, so doubt it. “Ranieri? I guess he’s right with what he said I am very demanding of myself and I have to win to be sure of things. This is why I have won so many trophies in my career. Ranieri on the other hand has the mentality of someone who doesn’t need to win. He is almost 70 years old. He has won a Supercup and another small trophy and he is too old to change his mentality. He’s old and he hasn’t won anything. I studied Italian five hours a day for many months to ensure I could communicate with the players, media and fans. Ranieri had been in England for five years and still struggled to say ‘good morning’ and ‘good afternoon.'" Fun fact: former Chelsea Claudio Ranieri was 56-years-old when Mourinho took him to town in 2008. Then in charge at Juventus, Ranieri had said: “I am not like Mourinho, I don’t have to win things to be sure of myself,” in a press conference after a 3-0 defeat to Hamburg, prompting this remarkable tirade. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/11524241/Jose-Mourinhos-10-best-put-downs.html?frame=3260775 Edited 8 October 2015 by Wookie

Corky Posted 8 October 2015 Posted 8 October 2015 Mourinho can do one, he's getting boring. He's exactly acting like Pearson the period before he got the sack, under pressure and blames others (including other team's managers). When was that? Pearson had a couple of rows with journalists, a dig at Burnley last October but never blamed anyone else for the pressure/ results and certainly no rows with other managers.
Wymsey Posted 8 October 2015 Posted 8 October 2015 When was that? Pearson had a couple of rows with journalists, a dig at Burnley last October but never blamed anyone else for the pressure/ results and certainly no rows with other managers. I miswrote it somewhat. Was going to put that he had a few bizarre rants with some (including, like you say, journalists) before his sacking. #AnotherWymseyMishap

AKCJ Posted 9 October 2015 Posted 9 October 2015 Mourinho on Ranieri; "He had lived in England for 5 years and still has trouble saying good morning and good afternoon. He is almost 70 and has won a super cup and another small trophy. He's too old to change his mentality". Worry about your own team you absolute helmet.
Benguin Posted 9 October 2015 Posted 9 October 2015 Even if it wasn't a penalty, which it was, Ulloa's goal for 3 should have counted. Therefore we always should have won.

Freesolo Posted 9 October 2015 Posted 9 October 2015 Still going on about the vardy pen! Pffff you think that would have be put to bed by now.
Dan Posted 10 October 2015 Posted 10 October 2015 Just sums up what a pathetic, worthless rag it is. Cannot believe people pay actual money for such poverty.
benpicko Posted 10 October 2015 Posted 10 October 2015 Ranieri's 64 the week after next, so doubt it. Yeah because it's been republished. I saw the quote before he was appointed and the age in brackets was in the 50s
Out Foxed Posted 10 October 2015 Posted 10 October 2015 Is it? It was in today's press.You've had a mare

Corky Posted 10 October 2015 Posted 10 October 2015 Why have they dragged up the Ranieri issue years after it happened? I thought it was odd given I hadn't heard Ranieri say anything about Mourinho and even for Mourinho it's a bizarre dig at this time. Henry Winter had it spot on that the press here are far more bothered with characters, personalities, mind games than the actual football being played. 1
blue army 1988 Posted 10 October 2015 Posted 10 October 2015 Why have they dragged up the Ranieri issue years after it happened?. I thought that would be obvious? To sell papers and get people talking about it.
Izzy Posted 10 October 2015 Posted 10 October 2015 I used to like Mourinho but he's getting right on my t1ts now. But to be fair, he has got a point about Raneri's English - its not the best is it (although its way better than my Italian). When you listen to Klopp, Wenger, Koeman etc. their English is excellent. Pellegrini's English is also pretty crap - maybe it's an age thing. I'm sure learning a foreign is difficult, but part of me wishes CR was just a little bit more fluent. You can see his eyes glaze over when a journo asks him a question sometimes and it looks a bit awkward. He's therefore an easy target for the 'perfect' Jose I guess...
fleckneymike Posted 10 October 2015 Posted 10 October 2015 I thought that would be obvious? To sell papers and get people talking about it. I don't think it is going to shift many papers. I suspect they were short on 'news' and needed something to fill the page.

Jose started out as a translator whilst Ranieri played football to a decent level, I can forgive Ranieri his English far more than I can forgive Jose being a bellend.

Yes 100% agree with you have a look at the sun match reports as a prime example
