Barely days after Everton sacked Rafael Benitez over poor results, their counterparts Watford have sacked coach Claudio Ranieri after just three months in charge amid a relegation battle.
Ranieri, unable to move Watford from the 19th position, was adamant that he would augment the underdogs from being demoted after their November win which saw them beat Manchester United 4-1.
Unencumbered by people’s expectations, Ranieri, formerly at Chelse and Leicester, bosted that he would do anything to lift the hornets despite losing seven matches after the eight games he oversaw.
Dean Jones, a transfer pundit, once described Ranieri as a walking dead man whose day of reckoning was inevitable.
The final nail on the Italian was reportedly hit when Watford lost to Norwich City at home in the 3-0 battle that saw state at Vicarage Road dusty and dusted.
The family in charge of Watford football club are said to be no-nonsense with Xisco Munoz’s departure in October last signaling that they were yearning for good results thus appointing Ranieri. Seemingly, he was not equal to the task.
