Not to dissimilar to Stevey Bruce then really though I'm probably being too generous as SB has a history of getting promoted with a club only to get relegated again ?
More like Colin Warnock & Dave Bassett !

Yeah you're right, but we werent talking about Steve Bruce.
I am very wary about playing you guys away just as I was playing Bury away!
We never seem to be at our best when playing Minnows from the lower leagues !

Ranieri had the final say as far as I've read it ... apparently he often watched the reserves with Pecini - Pecini had mentioned a really good kid playing for Lyon reserves (I think) so they duly watched that game together ... Ranieri was suitably impressed ... Pecini kept tabs on the kid's availability and alerted Ranieri when that came to pass .. Ranieri then sanctioned the signing ...
Ranieri does IMHO have an impressive history in the youth developmnt sphere ... brought Mendietta through from youth ranks at Valencia ... same with John Terry at Chelsea (where he also signed Fat Frank and Claude Makalele) ... perhaps the best one was when he was at Napoli and Maradona was leaving ... go out and replace with an expensive purchase? ... or bring someone through from the youth set-up? ... enter centre stage a diminutive pimply youth .... Gianfranco Zola.
I'm more than happy to have him as manager ... as you might have worked out
I don't think he can really take the credit for Terry, he'd already played 15 first team games in the season before Ranieri took over.
You might have a point there OLM but he certainly left Chelski in very good shape as indeed Nige did us and you for that matter !
... maybe ... but Terry wasn't particularly impressive until after Ranieri had signed Wayne Bridge and encouraged him to bring his girlfriend to training sessions ... thinking outside the box you see ... or perhaps in it ... like JT did ... on several occasions ...
Oh I dont know, that ressie striker playing in the cup - and likely against us - seems to know where the net is.
Fingers crossed they can stay injury free though you better hope Livermore can stay DRUG FREE. !!
..hmm .... yet neither played agsinst West Ham on Tuesday (OK Mahrez did come on in the 82nd minute) ... virtually the same West Ham that had won so impressively at Man City at the weekend ...
It's always good to get the views of intelligent, insightful, informed football fans ... if you should bump into one perhaps you could get them to write a couple of posts for you?
It's not vardy getting injured you should be worried about , it's him beating up the Japanese forward you have signed you should be more concerned about , how about a bonding session down the casino !
Probably OLM though earlier posts on this thread were somewhat personal attacks on Vardy & Co to be fair ?
If you can't tell the difference between someone losing their kid and someone racially insulting someone, then I pity you.
Oh fair play mate, I honestly didn't know & for that I sincerely apologise !
