Ranieri

I doubt even he’s that deluded.

Like I say above, sacking a manager after finishing 11th and getting to a cup final, for a team like Watford. Seems to have a deluded sense of ambition.

That’s not why he was sacked, though. The Pozzo family have always been trigger happy, it’s not about ambition just that Italian owners see coaches as far more expendable than people in England do.

He has achieved more than Ralf in management to be fair

Won the same amount of PL titles as Klopp too
----------------------------------------------------------------------
0.5 more if we’re honest. Their title* was won behind closed doors.

wrong, the title was sewn up well before that. i dont think we even had to play another game and we'd still have won it. paused on 82 points after 29 games, city finished on 81 after 38. if anything winning it tht early should count as 1.5 titles

As for the OP, i thought people liked Ranieri, like he was one of the good guys people seemed to like. Has done some alright work for clubs, not followed his entire career that closely though. Is Watford troubles his fault? is any manager gonna be good enough for them?

Should have retired in a high when he won the league. He’s been more or less hopeless since.

It's rather strange how he is judged so poorly as a manager yet arguably has the single greatest footballing achievement in history on his CV.

A few days ago CR said that they sack managers in Italy just like they go out and buy an ice cream (or some such similar words). He wasn’t surprised with what Pozzo had to say.

He is one of the “good guys”.

Nah it was won behind closed doors. It’s a bit like a tree falling in the rainforest. Does it actually make a sound if no one is there to hear it?

They replaced him with Hodgson
