I have followed Ranieri career closely because personally I like the man. But I am disappointed that he became the coach of Juve, because he simply won't cut the standard. What Ranieri does well is he is extremely resourceful, and rarely makes rash decisions regarding players. Ranieri will give players their fair chance, and opportunity to show themselves. So he is anti-thesis to Capello; very flexible. The problem is that he is TOO flexible and clever for his own good. I won't go into details but there were occasions, where with one or two good signings he could have seriously won major trophy or two. Ranieri blew it by spending the money on a wrong guy *cough* Oliveira *cough*. In another words, Ranieri is as clueless as we are, in terms of understanding the standard required to win championships. I don't rate Capello that much as a coach, but he knows what it takes to win the league, and which players are needed to achieve his aim. That alone is better than lovable loser.
No...he meant he wants a player who has similar charesteristics to Emerson...not Emerson himself 
In short term Capello would have probably have done a better job i serie a, but in Europe he is shit!
Ranieri Discusses Transfer Subjects Newly appointed Juventus coach Claudio Ranieri analyses the club’s current transfer plans.
"First of all, I want a powerful group," began Ranieri, speaking to Tuttosport.
"All we have to focus on now is creating a group capable of being a threat to any other club.
"Our priority right now is to sign a forceful midfielder who can keep the midfield department together."
"Fans will be satisfied," he assured, while refusing to reveal names. "We are working hard towards creating a strong team. However, we can’t keep mentioning names in newspapers."
He did let a few names slip, though, one of them being that of Liverpool midfielder Momo Sissoko.
"I know Sissoko very well," he said. "I coached him during my days at Valencia, and I was quite surprised when he moved to Liverpool."
He was more careful on Gilardino: "Well, I don’t like to discuss players who belong to other clubs.
"Right now, I can say that Iaquinta is a nice purchase. He’s a World Champion and he’ll be very motivated at Juventus. Tactically, he can be very useful."
The discussion finally shifted to David Trezeguet, and Ranieri made no secret of the contractual issues: "There aren’t many strikers who have characteristics similar to Trezeguet's.
"If he stays I would certainly play him, but the contract extension issue is between him and the club’s management."

What i said about iaquinta is because is a now a reality that he signed for Juve! so we have to make the best of it... (like Ranieri). Lampard wont come! his agent said today that is unlikely that he leaves london, where he just bought a new house and that Juve wont pay more that 5mill and he wont take that. I think Sissoko is already signed too. Camo was close to extending his contract and just yesterday the negotiations went downhill (maybe bcause of ranieri's signing, too much coincidence). I think trez will leave too. If Camo & Trez leave at the same time, i dont think Buffon will get motivated!
