If Leicester suddenly start performing to a decent standard and pull away from the relegation places it will prove it was the correct decision to sack Ranieri.

 

I don't feel sorry for Ranieri. He'll always be remembered for winning the league with Leicester. He'll also get a massive pay off to go with all the other millions he's made over the years. For whatever reason it hasn't worked out this season.

Sky acting outraged that the architect of their perfect fairytale has been forced out, after they helped create the game where you absolutely cannot afford to fall off the Premier League cash train for the sake of sentimentality.

I think its bad to sack him while they're still in the Champions League. He deserves a crack at that even if they are struggling in the league. Avram Grant got to the final and di Matteo won it, so you never know.

 

This. Plus there's plenty of the season left as far as securing league position.

I guess it's similar to Pardew getting 5th then us wanting rid the next season.

 

Kind of fluking 5th with fundamental weaknesses in the team is not the same as winning the league by 10 points.

 

In classic Pardew fashion, we still managed six defeats in which we conceded three or more goals that season. Nearly one game in six! I bet no other fifth place team has ever managed that.

Equipped with a Manchester United training top emblazoned with the initials C.R, United boss Jose Mourinho paid tribute to Ranieri today at his presser...

 

"My words is my shirt with his name. It’s my little homage to somebody that wrote the most beautiful history of the Premier League. Somebody who would probably deserve the Leicester stadium to be named ‘Claudio Ranieri', and he’s sacked.

 

"So I think Leicester made history two years in a row. One year because they did the most beautiful thing in the Premier League and one of the most beautiful histories in football history. And now they’re also in the highlights with a decision that I think has everyone in football united because its something very very difficult to accept.

 

“But at the same time it’s good for all for us to realise how football is now.

 

"I thought last season when I was sacked as a champion it was a giant negative thing, now I realise that it was peanuts compared to what happened to Claudio, so my Instagram is a little homage, my shirt is another one and I don’t think he needs more homages because nobody can delete what he did."

Chelsea finished 2nd and 6th those seasons.  No comparison at all to how they are doing in the league.

 

Ranieri had his big chance in 03/04 to win the CL and blew it with ridiculous tactics vs monaco which is remembered by Big Ron's racist attack on Desailly.

In all seriousness, he overachieved/fluked the title, they were second in the league if you take into account major refereering decisions effecting the league table. Now he is massively underachieving, he had to go if they want to have a chance to stay up.

Different tone to when he said he was too old and had only ever won a Super Cup, the prick.
