And in the semi final he made some ridiculous substitutions that cost them the chance to get to the final and him his job.
Monaco went down to 10 men when it was 1-1 and then Ranieri put on a striker for a defender and some other idiot change and they lost 3-1, despite having a man advantage.
Yes you are right, but you also forgot few details.
On same day when Chelsea played at Monaco, Jose had appointment with Kenyon from Chelsea and they signed pre contract. Every Chelsea supporter knew that!!!
Do you think Ranieri did not know about it?
But that was not main problem, Ranieri wanted to kill the game and finish it in Monaco...Strikers did not do the job..Veron was bad when he got in, Parker terrible etc.
In 2nd leg, we were leading at the time 2:0...we would still win and go to final, but there was foul on Hasslebank and Monaco player scored with
hand, and he admitted, and said in papers that god gave him power to score with hand..
All that season , as i said before CR knew it he will be kicked out, and only reason why we did not win at that time was because Arsenal who never lost single match..
remember Henry, Viera, Pirez, Bergkamp, Campbell, A.Cole, Gilberto.
anyway we won against this team in CL.
