but its all relative. deschamps was playing in B where his players were disenchanted to play. whereas ranieri is in A, he has "unlimited" resources to acquire any player he wants and he has a much better squad to work with. he has no excuses IMO.
but i'm not saying that one coach is better than the other particularly, i just don't like that idiot comment the other kid made
If you want to compare them
I think it's obvious Deschamps is better than Ranieri
Look at the CL Semi Final 03/04 when Monaco (Deschamps) beat Chelsea (Ranieri) although Monaco played with 10 players
At that time Monaco has limited transfer budget and Ranieri has unlimited transfer budget with the arrival of Abramovich
And look at Deschamps in Serie B, he left by a lot of our star players and only bought Boumsong (4 mill Euros) when Bojinov is came before his arrival as Juve's coach...Also he made some players shine like Marchisio, Gio, DC, Vennitucci...He didn't afraid to rotate players and plays some young players
And look at Ranieri, he has spent a lot of transfer budget in this 2 seasons. And the players we bought not made us better (Andrade, Almiron, Tiago, Moli, Nocerino, Criscito)...Only IQ and Sissoko is better transfer...and Poulsen, Amauri still need to prove more...Knezevic, Mellberg, Grygera, Sali come with cheap price or free...Also look at our starting eleven last season...Is it our starting eleven in Serie B (except Moli and Nocerino, while Nocerino substituted by Sissoko in season half)....And now is our new players who has been essential is DC, Marchisio, and Gio and the 3 of them is our primavera players who is shine under Deschamps...(other than Amauri of course)
So based on that i don't think we improve our squad by the money we spent in this 2 years (72 mill Euros last season and 40.2 mill Euros this season approximately)...What a shame for our management... I think Man City is better than us in case spend the money to bring players
