In some ways, I hope he does. No Juventus fan should like the guy whatsoever. If he's such a great coach he should have done this with us, but he didn't, so he and his fans can go fuck themselves.
I'm with you on this, but if it means inter and mauriinho without a trophy, I hope he does it. To be honest I don't care much if it's milan or roma, just that it wouln't be inter.

I don't give a shit for Ranieri and I'm not cheering for him anyway. But I'm not going to deny that he did a great job there so far because they sucked ass with Spalletti. And of course I'll cheer for Roma to win now, even if they win they are not a big threat while they have Sensi but if Inter wins it it's just going to be some extra cash and even stronger Inter next season. I really wouldn't mind to see Mourinho out of Inter. And also, this is their 4-5th Scudetto? I don't want this to become another Ligue 1 where Inter represents Lyon.

Forza Ranieri. He also did a good job here with us but the time came that we had to part with him. Only because Ciro was not the right man to replace him doesn't mean we should have kept Ranieri here. Roma have the easiest schedule and even though I still don't see them winning the title, if they manage to do that we all should take our hats off to Ranieri and his brave team.

You don't need to explain yourself and give excuses why you want Roma to win it. It's a matter of preference. Since Juve can't win it we have a choice not to give a damn about who wins it, or to support one of the three candidates for the scudetto race.
You prefer Roma to win it, I also prefer Roma to win it, some prefer Milan, some Milan or Roma but not Inter and some might even prefer Inter to win it.
No need to explain to the others why did we make such choice.

I'm so happy right now :D

It's just funny because some members laugh and I don't know why. I guess they want Inter to win or they just think there's an option for us to win the whole thing.

he could have done this with you only you all were too eager to win the scudetto after returning to serie a,he just didnt get the time
Given all the time he's needed to settle into Roma, right?

No, I don't think so. He's a good coach. But he's not a championship coach. He's good for a club with lower ambitions like Roma. But he's an impediment for clubs with greater aspirations.

He got enough time here. Had we stuck with him for the last few games of the previous season we would have surely lost on a CL spot as Ranieri was keeping to breaking records with our team at that moment. Regardless of what he would get in the end this season with Roma, I never regret the decision of firing him. We replaced him with an incompetent tactician though.

I think so too, but it's not a popular opinion right here. Also, no-one takes the injuries we had last year into consideration. I think Juve broke a record or something with those injuries.

I was also supporting the board when they fired Ranieri so I'm not really the one to talk. Those 6-7 draws in a row were too much (Btw, did the Inter fans ask for Mourinho's head when he made only 1 win in 7 matches earlier this month?).
But i'm just a fan and an amateur. Those in the board are supposedly professionals and they should have known that firing Ranieri makes little sense, especially if they didn't have a quality replacement prepared.

Ranieri took over a crippled Juventus and we weren't patient, even though the team was improving*.

* Yes, it was improving if you consider that we played in Europe in the second season and we had million injuries and yet we were doing a little better than the previous year.

And that one with another one.

How sure are you about this?

Take a look at last year's standings. Even if we lost the last two matches we were gonna get a direct CL spot.
The last two matches were against Siena (Juve B?) and Lazio, who absolutely didn't need the points.

Only if the players were against Ranieri it was a right thing to fire him. Only if there were serious disagreements and fights between him and the bigger part of the players.

Wrong comparison. We were in no place to risk staying with Ranieri. We were going to lose the CL spot. It was the right decision to sack him, no doubt about that.

We were unable to beat the smallest teams out there at that moment.
