Claudio Ranieri, (born October 20, 1951 in Rome, Italy) is an Italian football manager and former player, currently manager of Juventus. Full Article At Wikipedia.org
They will respect Barca but afraid? No. Why? It will be a close match. They have had some close matches before and maybe it will be different this time.
Can Claudio Ranieri be sure his job is safe? Yes, absolutely
He did not refuse to come on ... I simply asked if he was prepared to do this specific tactical work on the left. He replied with great honesty: 'No, coach, if I do have to come on then I prefer to do it playing in another way.' So I opted not to introduce him, as I needed something else.
Last year in Rome, Claudio Ranieri put me on the right and I adapted
We didn't need this, but this is the way the entire year has gone ... Now we've got to do well in the upcoming matches and work professionally, but without giving the fans any illusory goals like third place.
We are disappointed because we could not win the match despite our commitment
He did not refuse to come on, I was talking to him about tactics
You could award a penalty for that, it depends on the referee ... Lucio only reached the ball after making contact with the player. We have not been awarded penalties which were even clearer.
Going out of the Champions League is behind us now and it must remain behind us. We're looking forward
We must not think of a revolution but a restructuring. Anyway the club knows this
It has not been a good year
The team could not do any more than that without a bit of luck
This match is a picture of our season
Our motivations? We will find them in ourselves
Perhaps we played better in the first leg, but I would say that we had the best chances of the tie
The team could not have given any more even if we could have had a little more luck. It is always the coach's fault, however, we are paid to take the blame
It’s upsetting ... Because when you see a team that tries to do everything it can and goes even beyond that, that creates more chances than the opposing team and then loses, goes out of the Champions League it leaves you with bitter taste in your mouth. We had a lot of misfortune but these two matches a...
I'm a part of Inter this year and the next one too ... I don't see why my future will have to count on tomorrow.
Determined to get through
It shows how much this means to me ... This win comes just at the right time, it should give us the enthusiasm necessary to turn the result around.
This win comes just at the right time. It should give us the enthusiasm necessary to turn the result around
Against Chievo, Wesley Sneijder was everywhere on the field; he helped his team-mates a lot
We do not talk about it in the locker room
I've never had that sensation, never
This win comes just at the right time, it should give us the enthusiasm necessary to turn the result around
