Ranieri Sacked

XeNoN89 · 23 Feb 2017 at 20:19

What a joke. He should have been given until the end of the season after what he achieved!

I guess that's the statue cancelled.

Fantastic achievement last season but they were shocking the season before and have just returned to the level of play they're really capable of. Still, Ranieri's one of the most likeable people in the football and it's hard not to think he deserves better but sacking a popular manager and staying up is better than keeping a popular manager and going down.

Just confirmed by the BBC website.

I thought Ranieri deserved to at least see the season out after what he accomplished last season.

The greatest show of how utterly nuts the game has swung to player power. Good enough to pull off the greatest shock of our lifetime and then sacked 8 months later while his players turned from a team to hungover from the realisation they had peaked and would never achieve it again.

I hope they get relegated. Their wins have dried up faster than all those born again Leicester fans.

This about sums up my feelings

Shocking really, he definitely deserved to see the season out

Absolutely ridiculous decision. I really hope they go down now, horrible club.

omnomnom · 23 Feb 2017 at 21:03

Absolutely did. They won the league last season ffs!

They just said on BT Sport that 4 of the last 5 Premiership winning managers have been sacked so if Arsenal supporters want rid of Wenger he's going to have to win you the league first

I hope they get relegated now.

Difficult to wish them anything else after that backstab.

Winning what many agree is the toughest league in the world, last 16 of the Champions League.

All with a team which only just escaped relegation the season before.

If anything, they are performing above their level.

Shocking man

It's been coming for a while to be honest. Champions League is irrelevant when you're on the way to getting relegated. They've been in freefall for a long time now.

. I disagree

I am a neutral but I liked Leicester, the underdog who done good.

They are still Leicester, not sure what the owners wanted. They are not a Stoke or West Brom.

They needed to build.

It is becoming a crazy game.

Wigan - Win FA Cup, Relegated
Leicester City - Win Premier league, Win Champions league, Relegated
