urban.spaceman Posted 13 May 2012 Posted 13 May 2012 ... to win the Premier League as a manager! .... Can't quite believe I just typed that, or the fact that it was 11 years ago!!
Ozwin Posted 13 May 2012 Posted 13 May 2012 Clearly he learned what not to do while he was a player here!
foxesfan1989 Posted 13 May 2012 Posted 13 May 2012 Mancini sites us as the time he fell in love with the English game! With Peter Taylor in charge, I am not quite sure how that happened. Must have been us fans that showed him the way
Tuna Posted 13 May 2012 Posted 13 May 2012 True but really a silly thing to post because the only people to have won the premier league are Ferguson, Kenny Dalglish, Wenger, Mourinho. Only a former Liverpool and former Leicester player have therefore won the premier league as managers!
cc_star Posted 13 May 2012 Posted 13 May 2012 If he can follow it up with more Premier League wins and grab a few Champions League trophies... then maybe one day we'll have him back
Kitchandro Posted 13 May 2012 Posted 13 May 2012 don revie won the old "first division" version In that case this stat is meaningless
MPH Posted 14 May 2012 Posted 14 May 2012 Did Lineker win it with Everton? Or what about when he went to Barca?

Steven Posted 14 May 2012 Posted 14 May 2012 He only played for us 9 times I have a Mancini City shirt
Manwell Pablo Posted 14 May 2012 Posted 14 May 2012 Try 5! And had zero effect as he was trying delicate clever through balls and Benjamin and Akinibiyi couldn't read any of them.
bluesbrothers Posted 14 May 2012 Posted 14 May 2012 Watch this space - Leon Crncic will emerge from the Bermuda Triangle to become the world's greatest manager in 30-odd years time.
Carter The Boss Posted 14 May 2012 Posted 14 May 2012 Can't remember where I saw this but.. English Premiership winner: Man City / Mancini: Ex Leicester Scottish Premiership winner: Celtic / Lennon: Ex Leicester League 1 winner: Charlton / Powell: Ex Leicester We are a breeding ground for success!

Must have been us fans that showed him the way perhaps he should show his love by giving us a few players who need more games,with them footing the bill
goose2010 Posted 14 May 2012 Posted 14 May 2012 Did he Captain us? apparently he took the arm band when he came on as sub once? I'm not sure??

Only a former Liverpool and former Leicester player have therefore won the premier league as managers! Ahh but did Dalgleish ever play in the premier league??
AyewJoking Posted 14 May 2012 Posted 14 May 2012 He's definitely the only Italian to have ever played for Leicester and went on to win the Premier League as a manager. For now anyway.............
foxesfan1989 Posted 14 May 2012 Posted 14 May 2012 perhaps he should show his love by giving us a few players who need more games,with them footing the bill Like Michael Ball? Or Michael Johnson....
Guy Posted 14 May 2012 Posted 14 May 2012 Clearly he learned what not to do while he was a player here! Yes, most certainly - bearing in mind it was Peter Taylor who actually signed him in 2000-01 - presumably through his then England Under 21 connections......
flowwolf Posted 14 May 2012 Posted 14 May 2012 He's definitely the only Italian to have ever played for Leicester and went on to win the Premier League as a manager. For now anyway............. Yes and wear size twelve boots.
MrSpaM Posted 14 May 2012 Posted 14 May 2012 Chrissy Powell will be the next. I'm half expecting him to be winning the champions league in a couple of seasons. I firmly believe we'd be gracing the premiership by now if he'd have stayed with us
