I loved the way that he said "My Sons" at the end .... what a wonderful man he is !!!!!
+Robin LaBouche Yeah, that is what I notice, I believe that is why they fought so hard for him.
this guy is amazing
wow, i believe himeveryting was true whith this gentlementthank you for this beauty story, i still cryingwow wow wow algerian from montrealkarim
With the reports cming out now that those players turned against him then they're such a DISGRACE!
"My players, My sons" - Claudio Ranieri, 2016
*I can speak for almost all the Italians*. I swear you guys that here we all were cheering for Leicester. You had an entire 2nd Country who supported you.
We like you followed with our heart the Premier League this year.
Thank Claudio, Blue Foxes, Leicester city and fans and UK for reminding me why I've started to follow football long time ago.
To try and explain to Claudio what he has done for not only LCFC, but Leicester and Leicestershire is almost impossible. To see youngsters wearing Leicester City shirts (instead of the so called big clubs) proudly showing them off, to hear people (even those who do not usually like football ) talking about LCFC with a smile on there faces, people reminiscing about how good we were in the old days but not as good as we are now, LCFC flags flying everywhere, everyone happy smiling, the list goes on and on. All the players, staff and the owners deserve unquestionable credit, for the unrivaled achievement LCFC have gained. But the star of the show, the jewel in the crown, the maestro, the gentleman, the comedian, the mastermind has to be Claudio Ranieri. He as transformed the city into something people thought it could never be, a winner, where the public can proudly boast when asked on holiday "where do you come from" answer with there head held high and there chest puffed out "LEICESTER." I dont know how but he must be honoured by the people of Leicester in a way that is fitting for an exceptional servant of the city. My late father who was a lifetime supporter would be so proud of Claudio and the team, and for that thought alone i thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Well spoken mate, well spoken. 👏🏻
+nosmo king wow - what an incredible comment. Go Foxes!
+Cazza Mod Yes, an incredible comment. Feels really good.
Well said everybody involved especially the Asian owners
Come on Foxes
+nosmo king Well said. Actually I think Claudio is not the one who brought that to Leicester. As he says: "Our leader is the team". It's all been ignited by the owner, then the puzzles came together. I mean without Claudio it would be waaaay different team but he is not the only person responsible for the success.
Mr. Ranieri for the Nobel Prize
Nobel prize in hope
+William Willberforce is going to be to sport management activies : ) ? I'm italian and Claudio's job has been simply SUPERB!!!
+William Willberforce he's done far more for it than barrack!
+84 Ateo Non ci credoooooo ahahaha dopo un'eternità rieccoti
MATTIA BORZILLO scrivo quel che voglio tutti i giorni da un bel pezzo cmq
"My players, my sons." - pretty much sums the bond that created this miracle.
'me and my players, me and my sons' .. really a legend..
frm Liverpool fan, hope you win the title
What a lad
👍
Senore Ranieri has to be the most genuinely lovely bloke who's ever worked in the Premier League, he seems so affable and easy to get along with.
This is the kind of stuff that football fans around the world will tell their children and grandchildren about. This season for Leicester has been an inspiration not just to football but to sport around the world. Phenomenal.
The way he almost tear after he watched the fans' appreciation... moved me as well
+Shaun T I'm crying right now. He's a Great.
I'm from Brazil, and i am a Flamenco fan, in BPL i'm Manchester United fan but this man is very humble, i like this man and i trust in your victory
"My players, my sons..." Beautiful!
" My players ; My sons " what a man !!
exactly, such a sweet words from a kind great person
This guy is gonna get manager of the season he derserves it 100%
Of course, it is out of the question.
MannequinStep ikr
+ManUtd4life if any other manager gets the manager of the season award, i will eat salad
Papachito lol
+Papachito Pushing yourself to the limit
An absolute gentleman - a class act
Im not a Leicester fan and now Im crying. NOBODY believed them, NOBODY took them seriously, but they proved them ALL wrong! Amazing, Leicester. I will never forget this season! You are written in the history and nobody can take that from you. You are written in the stars
+ScilexGuitar I AM a leicester fan (Leicester born and bred) and I'm in floods of tears! Claudio is so loved in Leicester :)
EASYTIGER10 So happy for you man!
+EASYTIGER10 i m born in the same neighborhood of rome of Ranieri. But we are fan of opposite team, he for as roma, me for ss lazio. So he is a rival for me from many many years. But we all respect him. You all guys deserved this thing. And not only you and your city, but all the lovers of this amazing and incredible game. I m like crying right now....happy for you and for our game!
Thanks guys :)
+ScilexGuitar This feeling you have is echoed around the world. And this come from Bangalore, India
What an absolute gent, a lovely guy. Delighted for him and his team.
What a very Humble Gentleman.Well done Mr Ranieri
"It is not important if we win or we lose i want to see you fight till the end "
That is the spirit
It's not important if we win or we lose, I want to see you to fight until the end. What a word!!!
A wonderful human being.
he is a humble gentleman
In Valencia We remember a lot, Ranieri made us dream, thanks Claudio.
"My players, my sons..." What a wonderful man he is. A truly deserving champion. Congratulations to Leicester City!
the way ranieri talk just , very humble, low profile. great character
Claudio numero 1!!!!!! Sono felice per te perchè sei una brava persona e ti meriti tutto questo!!! Grande uomo nel calcio e nella vita. Grande rispetto per te e per quello che hai fatto.
RESPECT and LOVE for Claudio Ranieri, Leicester Players & Fans !
from a Liverpool fan.
Absolute inspiration,
Wonderful ! 👍👍👍
I'm an arsenal fan and I love this guy
+Billy Pinto Me too. Time we ditched Wenger.
+Gooners Rule (Goonersrule) Arsene wenger is the best manager available overall.
+Billy Pinto Hell yeahhhh!!! Even me dude ,:D . I wanted Arsenal to win since this year started ,but after seeing all these right now i feel that leicester deserved to win.
+Greg Shimray I think you should stop living in 2004.
+FrostBitey10 He doesn't spend money like other managers,he gives and creates careers for a lot of ignored young footballers with potentials and plays top class football.
Qualifies for the champions leaque every year.
with the current squad at Arsenal,they wouldn't be in the top five or so without Wenger
"My players, my sons"
Wow, you don't hear a coach/manager in any major sports league talk about their players like that. It must be a treat to play for/work for a man like this. It's truly no wonder why they were so successful. They all bought in to what this man was telling them, lock, stock, and barrel. Cheers from the US, GO LCFC.
From an Arsenal fan from a tiny town in the northeast of the U.S. , congratulations, Claudio. You, your team and the owners of the team exemplify the best in sports. What you have done through hard work and a fantastic work ethic goes well beyond unreal. All the best, and bask in all the glory you all deserve.
Legend!!! Anything can happen from today on forward to any personnel of The Foxes and nothing can ever take this beautiful memory away. Enjoyed the ride. Grande Ranieri and team.
i was one of the doubters when Claudio was made manager im so glad he proved me wrong
as an FC Barcelona fan, i cried watching this. vivi barca vivi Leicester. hope to meet in UCL next season
+mateaco afam Barcelona are playing Leicester in the summer! Just look it up mate :)
what a great man !
i cried wen i saw this 😢, i love this guy
Well done...All the Italian fans are very proud of you Mr Ranieri
congratulations Mr.Claudio Ranieri 'You are doing a fantastic job in this season.' from me... Man.utd fan.
There's no way someone else than Claudio Ranieri will be Manager of the Year!!
The best thing that has happened to English football in 30 years. From a long-standing Evertonian: Thank you Claudio Ranieri and all at Leicester City, you have reclaimed the integrity of football in this country, and now as a result have let the rest of us (both in and out of football) dare to dream once again. Make the most of every minute of this, and God bless you all. Let there be a grand carnival at the King Power Stadium next weekend - and we'll be privileged to share it with you. WELL DONE LADS!!!!!!!!
This man deserves coach of the year
I'm an Arsenal fan, but what a man! True legend of the EPL! I will probably remember this season throughout my whole life.
Love that guy. So happy for him.
Respect to Ranieri
This man is legend it was very hard for him to b not given the chance to prove himself in chelsea I thought he was doing a great job down in Chelsea too ... God bless u sir from LFC(ynwa) fan
What a genuinely nice man he is. Which he was at my club.
Congratulations Leicester City from Thailand
People will be talking about Leicester, this season, and Ranieri for decades.
Congrats Leicester City....From Mexico City....well done...!!!!
Grazia for the years at juve , taking us from seira b to beating real Madrid twice in UCL 2008\2009 season
You and Leicester deserve this sooooo much
Wow, Samantha Johnson is beautiful.... and Claudio is a great guy and manager!
Yes she is and yes Claudio is
+Gtaguy95 Why? For complementing people
+Gtaguy95 That's fine, still there's no need to be rude
The man he deserve more than this the man make that all people in one city happy with a passion even all over the world
he did the impossible miracle
thanks cloudeio
"My players' - my son's [hands]." That says it all.
I'm a Liverpool fan and am very envious of what Leicester have achieved, absolutely awesome and well deserved. As for this fella, who could begrudge him, what a lovely guy and now a dead set premier league legend. Congrats.
The virtue of humility Forza Claudio - Forza Leicester and Forza Napoli
Watching this back after Claudio was sacked nearly made me cry. He is a legend to all Leicester City supporters, he is the best manager we have ever had without question.He put Leicester on the map, and it is a disgrace that he was betrayed by his own players and the owners. I am a Leicester fan, but if I wasn't, I would certainly want to see them in League 2 ASAP. He should have a statue built outside the stadium of him. The greatest sporting fairytale ever, and it ended as a nightmare.
Managers have been sacked for a lot less - would you have preferred he stay and Leicester be relegated? What he did for the club was amazing, but if a team can't get results, replacing the manager must be considered
I strongly believe you can make a history in football. my best wishes SIR.
I had tears in my eyes watching this and I support Hull City, really what Mr Ranieri & Leicester have acheived is bigger than football, it has captured the imagination and emotions of millions
He is so humble
Can I see his great Entourage in the Stadium greeting fans ... please. I don't have TV cable in the United States but LOVE Football. This is so empowering... and so are the fans n players. CHEERS! from my humble heart.
This was great. What a lovely man Claudio is.
Congratulations to Leicester and expecially to Claudio! You make us weep with joy! And a special thank to Andrea Bocelli who made this even more beautifull!
claudio ranieri. what a wonderful man!
From a Juventus fan....GREAT TEAM GREAT MAN GREAT VICTORY!!!!!
Good people don't always end up first in sports. But when they do, especially like this, it's beyond magical. Well done Claudio, you will go down in history as managing one of the greatest sports achievements of our times. No one can ever take that away from you.
Amazing, Leicester. Congratulations from an Aberdeen fan...
Look at his smile when he was watching the video, how happy it made him, priceless!.. :')
LEGEND
Claudio,so happy for you,"your sons" and all the people you gave this great joy to. From a Roma fan
True gentleman and a brilliant manager. Couldn't be more pleased for the guy.
I'm a massive chelsea fan so already have respect for ranieri. He's seems so genuine and humble there aren't many people like this left in football. Congratulations Leicester you showed everyone what English football is all about and why the prem is the best league in the world.
In Italy we are happy for the fairy tale of yor team and proud of Claudio Ranieri. (sorry for my bad english)
+Donato 2112 Your English is amazing, don't worry! And we LOVE ITALY!!!
Ti amo Claudio. Te lo meriti. Il tempo e venuto per essere el VERO eroi de Leicester.AGUANTE ZORROS !!!....LEICESTER CITY....PREMIER LEAGUE CHAMPIONS 2016 !!!!! ...From Mollendo, Arequipa , PERU.
parli italiano?
+alessandro confente diciamo che ci prova
1 dislike! Pochettino must have been watching
+Banner Lol at you both!
hahaha lol
+mark smith Maybe Abramovich or Mourinho
+mark smith Now 24 dislike! Probably Pochettino, Mourinho and Abramovich families!
Arsene Wenger also seems to be pissed off
I'm a mancity fan, but there's nothing I'd like more than to see this man and Leicester win the Premier League this season, and make an impact on Europe next. The desire and belief of these players is amazing. Puts the bigger clubs to shame.
He truly is a gentleman, a man that really just exudes kindness and passion for what he does. You could tell when he was listening to the comments from fans it meant so much to him. I'm really glad they did it, for a great club portraying the traditional values the big money hitters should try and emulate once more. He really put the football back in football and showed us how to be a man. Cheers Claudio! :)
respect claudio...
what you have done is incredible...
Grazie Claudio, Grazie Leicester City! You gave to all of us awareness that our inner dreams can unexpectedly come true
Samantha Johnson, I've seen a lot of interviews with Claudio but this one is the very best. Its about the human side of football not just players and the league position. You should get a prize for this real good interview.
The fact that he was so emotional tells all the story...everyone wants Leicester to win the title!Guys you've done such a good job!Dream on...(from a Palace supporter)
what a legend big respect
maestro
Un vero uomo ed un grande signore....
Congratulations Leicester from LFC
Claudio your sons have done it!!! congrats LEICESTER CITY THE BEST MULTI- CULTURAL CITY IN THE WORLD I LOVE LEICESTER MY HOME TOWN
I'm tearing up right now
Daje Claudio! L'Italia è con te perchè meriti un successo del genere. C'mon foxes!
Such an awesome guy
I'm from Indonesia and I'm support Manchester United. But watching how Leicester play and how nice this person is, I just fell in love with these. The video is also beautiful and I'm really happy that they win the league with a great passion. Congratulations Leicester, congratulations Ranieri.
It's great story because not only Leicester City is a small club who should never be there but Claudio was always a underdog. He was kicked by English media, laughed on by arrogant Mourunho, called constantly "Tinkerman" by idiots from TV who call themselves "experts" etc.
what an amazing underdog story from leicester city. Ranieri is one hell of a manager, props to the fans and the players for a great season! Congrats! Much love from China.
Beautiful! Well deserved! Glad that spirit wins over money!
Omedetou Leicester....congrat
Respect from Ac Milan fans
I can't understand how any club who had Claudio as a manager before Leicester ever let him go. The heart, the commitment, the warmth and the kindness of this guy are just breath-taking. From the way he's so humble and self deprecating to the way he calls the players his "sons", there's just something so completely likeable and respectable about him. Whatever happens in the years to come, I hope Claudio stays with Leicester. There may never be another Premier League title, but this season by itself has earnt him an immortal place in the hearts and minds of every Leicester fan. Thank You Claudio, I hope you never leave.
Best sporting video of the year so far. How can you NOT love Claudio.
Congratulations from across the pond, to all at Leicester City Football Club and their fans. What a great story, what a Great Team! Well deserved boys...
Congratulations from a Liverpool fan YNWA
couldn't have happened to a better man. Mr. Claudio Ranieri is a true gentleman. Thank you Claudio, and thank you Leicester City for what you've given us this season. I am happy for you because you worked hard and fought for every minute. All this is coming from an Arsenal Fan. Congratulations, and good luck.
23 thumbs down. That's a whole football squad. I wonder which one?
spurs I think
25 managers joined
Orgoglio Italiano. FORZA LEICESTER!
great man in team, great father in team, great manager in team. and the best mastermind in leicester!! big respect sir!
Great man, like the woman said I would hug him if he was here, what a blessing this man is not just for Leicester but for football and mankind. Ranieri is truly a beautiful man.
