The Ranieri Days

Either Milner or Barry, I think it might have been the latter actually!

Nope, it was Carrick.

However, Ranieri has now admitted that he could have signed Michael Carrick, but opted to go for Lampard instead, a decision he still believes was correct.

“At the time I signed him I wanted to sign Michael Carrick as well,” he told the Sunday Mirror.

“We only had the money to sign one, so I had to make a decision which one to buy.

“I think I made the right choice signing Lampard.”

I like the guy tbh. never knew what was going to happen with him. always remember him welling up after we beat Arsenal in the UCL. he just got it so wrong in the semi final of the UCL when Monaco went down to 10 men. i always wonder if we beat Monaco and then beat Porto would we have ever got Jose as Manager?.

I think so, the Di Matteo situation dispelled the myth Roman judges managers on CL success.

Was never entirely convinced about Ranieri. When Bates and Hutchinson appointed him no one in England never mind Chelsea fans had heard of him. Bought some good players Cech, Robben and did a good job getting us to fourth in 2003 as he only bought two players and one De Lucas was a free transfer (and was shit). But his legacy ultimately will be Monaco which is still raw even after all these years. Just an absolute nightmare in every department that night.
