Mourinho got his success from Ranieri's team, so Ranieri deserves credit for at least 40% of Jose's success (IMO) he made good singings.
Hoddle didn't buy Lebeouf, Di Matteo, or Vialli... they were signed by Gullit! And how could you miss Carlo Cudicini and George Weah under Vialli ??

@#18 LO EC W Actually you could be right John Neal, Like Bobby Campbell, did wonders with no cash. Both mixed youth with astute buys, but which youth to promote and when is also a talent.
Ranieri by a mile He handed Jose a brilliant team and it only took him a couple of years to dismantle it with bad buys and bad tactics
