There Rome has decided who will be the third coach this season. After De Rossi and Juric, here comes Sir Claudio Ranieri. But will it be the right choice? Here’s what the voices on TMW Radio are saying.
Stefano Barigelli: “It’s the right choice. He’s someone with experience, he knows the place, he’s Roman, he knows where he’s coming from and I think he has a clear mandate. We’ll see the role, for now we don’t know anything. I think that given the way they were all things considered, it was difficult to find a coach. It’s difficult to understand Roma and Roma in a short time, Ranieri’s quality is that he knows Trigoria well. The fans, however bitter and disappointed, will show respect for a coach who is always everywhere was attacked in Rome”.
Luca Telese: “An evening was organized months ago for Ranieri with the newspaper Il Centro. I took a trip with him in the car, we talked about football, but at a certain point I asked him about his desire not to coach anymore. But he told me he says that there are only two teams for which he would accept a call, Cagliari and Roma because they are the places of his heart. And I agree with his choice, and it is also desirable, given the names that have been circulated.”
Franco Piantanida: “I give the Friedkins 0. Better Ranieri than Lampard, if that was the alternative. Having said that, this Friedkin’s nonsense remains, which I hope no Roma fan will fall for. It’s a figurine of a man who had chosen retirement, the Friedkin had chosen Mourinho some time ago and three years later they are forced to recall a man from retirement to make a good impression in the eyes of the fans to save both goats and cabbages.”
Roberto Bernabai: “It’s a solution that I not only approve of, but I hoped for it. I want to hope that the time that is passing will be spent by Ranieri to set certain limits to make his position strong and solid and not encounter the difficulties of his predecessors” .
Gigi Maifredi: “Not for me, Roma needs someone with more modern ideas, without wanting Ranieri. The team must be regrouped and activated with important, new ideas. If they just want to recover the situation, that’s right, he knows the environment, but I would never have gone to get him. At this moment we needed a coach who doesn’t need protection, someone who is inventive and sets people on fire. We need someone who has to convince the team that they can fight for something important, not just one repairer of a situation. I would have gone to get Allegri, offended by everyone for the last three years. He knows that he has to rehabilitate himself, he knows that he can no longer ask for the Moon, he wants revenge, I would have spoken to him and told him that to Rome could relaunch itself. He is the only one who has the personality to stay in Rome.”
Angiolo Radice: “Roma’s problems cannot be solved with a coach, it’s a corporate issue. It’s a name taken to appease the public. It wasn’t easy to then hire a coach, because in a few months you risk putting a label on yourself and throwing away a name you have created for yourself. Ranieri could save the moment. It will be difficult to get back into the Champions League, perhaps we will aim for something in the cups.”
Stefano Impallomeni: “Ranieri knows various aspects of this job. He came close to winning a Scudetto with Roma, he is a problem solver and he knows what it means to save a team, bring it back together, but also win. In a group where there isn’t this habit of being there At the back, he is ideal. There were difficulties in finding a coach, but that’s normal in this situation, even at a corporate level, in which the coaches found themselves alone.
