The words of Claudio Ranieri

Claudio Ranieri spoke to the Arabic sports platform Koora Break: "The whole world thinks they know football but it is one thing è to stand in front of the television and criticize, another è to be a coach. When you are the ì, it è a whole other job. I have traveled a lot for work, my culture è solid but I love to take something from every other city, from other cultures, I have a desire to test and experiment, I do not have a closed mind, I still want to learn a lot”.

“My team at the moment is notè in a great situation: first of all for me the’importantè to recreate the right atmosphere with the fans. I am the fourth coach this season, in these first months there have been so many situations and different systems of play: come to this point, the important thing is to work, understand and improve. When a coach arrives this season, he has to manage, and every situation can become a big challenge. As soon as I arrived,” Ranieri continued, “I asked the team for a hand, I told them: help me, because I am on my own and I have to understand 26 people”.

“We can also lose but I want to see my team fight until the end. This year I want to achieve something good and do everything for the property, the players and the fans. Right now we are not in a good position, but there are still many games to go and getting to Europe at the end would make me happy. Dan Friedkin told me: ‘Claudio, this year you are the’coach but next year you will be the’man who can’explain everything and watch everything’. I am happy right now”, he added about his future.

Filling in on soccer in Arabia: "There’s a lot of good players have arrived in Arabia, now it’s important to understand how the mentality’s going to change and how it’s going to develop in the future. Cristiano Ronaldo has done good publicity; then some very good players and very good coaches have also arrived. Now the important thing is to keep improving. Abdulhamid? I believe in him, he is doing well: Rome è a good place for young Arab players".
