Ranieri considers Juve problems Sunday 2 March, 2008
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Claudio Ranieri believes Juventus paid the price for distractions, while Cesare Prandelli hopes Fiorentina can continue climbing.
The Bianconeri were leading 2-1, but lost 3-2 to a Daniel Pablo Osvaldo goal in stoppages.
“We paid a heavy price for some moments of distraction. It’s a shame, because we were in control of the match,” said Ranieri.
“Papa Waigo’s introduction changed the game, as it gave them strength down the right and we struggled in that area. Having said that, we conceded two goals very stupidly.”
The tactician was criticised for his Tinker Man adjustment to the team during the second half.
“I took off Mauro Camoranesi and Alessandro Del Piero because they had given everything they had. These games can happen, where you don’t give what you know you can.
“Momo Sissoko was very important in midfield, as was Cristiano Zanetti. Fiorentina won and we must compliment them, but we were in control.”
This latest result sees Fiorentina close to within a point of third place and Juve are stuttering badly at the moment.
“It is the first time this season we have picked up just one point in three games. We have to look ourselves in the eye and react.”
The mood in the Viola camp was obviously ebullient after their first victory in Turin since May 15, 1988.
“We had a great first half, did well to put them under pressure and deserved something more,” noted Prandelli.
“After the break we didn’t run many risks, but then clearly you need a little bit of luck. I am happy for the lads, they are working so hard and getting unfairly criticised, so now they must enjoy this victory.”
Fiorentina faced a battle with Milan for fourth place only a week ago, but are now challenging for third.
“I won’t talk about placements, but we are doing well and can continue, that is what counts.”
Prandelli is a former Juventus player and was given a warm welcome by the fans. He has been considered as a future Coach of the club.
“The Juve fans have always given me a great reception. I have many happy memories, but I am at Fiorentina and I’m very happy.”

A come on, maybe in training he is more awfull then Noce. If you actually think he wants to ruin Tiago's career you are an idiot. Ranieri is the profesional here, you really think you know better while you haven't watched Tiago in training for one single minute? Please...
And metioning Molinaro and Grygera as a reason not to play Tiago? They play totally different roles!

I am sure this guy has a different perception from all of us about football matches and particularly controlling a match.
In other words, Papa Waigo was a good substitution where as Nocerino for Camoranesi was a stupid substitution. As for struggling in that ares, there is nothing new there, we all know who plays in that position game in game out.
Can someone decipher that, please?
Again with the control thing? This is going too far.
We all know who to thank for this abysmal result. the only reaction I can see is punching Ranieri in the eye and firing him.
