Lost the dressing room? A bunch of overpaid journeymen who have done very little previously in their careers but have now been set up for life thanks in a large part to what Ranieri did for them last season.

I agree with Fundy. I hope they go down and then freefall through the divisions.

Ranieri's previous job was a laughable attempt to manage Greece. He's pretty much as journeymen as the rest of them.

As to being set set up for life because of him. That's not true at all. They have a career to talk about in part because of him, but they still performed they get credit too. But all of them are premiership players. I'm sure their bank accounts were handsome enough prior to his arrival.

Bye Leicester, can't believe I did not put money on them going down as I called it before the season started with my brother and he laughed, been reminding him all season and it looks more likely than ever now.

I have them at 33/1. Intersteingly this morning my cash out was at 95, it's now £98. So has done me a slight favour apparently.

Disgusting way to treat Ranieri after all he done at Leicester.

I hope they appoint Mr Hodgson to take them down.

Ranieri is a classic example of being a victim of your own success.
Last season was just crazy.
but if you forget that they actually won the title last season and look at the table now,that is exactly where you'd expect Leicester to be.

Hope they don't pick up another point all season.

Mourinho sacked the year after winning it, Ranieri now gone the year after winning it, maybe Wenger has it right after all lol

LCFC youre an embarrassment, hope you go down and stay down

Agree with this and also couldn't care less what happens to them now its just shocking.

The players have got to big for their boots and must take a lot of blame.

Who will save them?

Also a good chance still in the C/L.

Anyway, the spuds are 1-1 and Mr Alli is sent off for one of the worst tackles you will see this year. How the guys leg never broke al never know.

The timing of the Ranieri sacking is crazy, still in the CL and some massive PL games coming up, starting with LPool on monday, no chance for a new guy to change much or buy anyone, they must think the "new manager" syndrome is going to kick in straight away!

The man is still a legend at the Bridge, Well for me anyway as he was unfairly treated there also. He should turn his back on English football, he's too nice a person to be treated like this.

Shame on LCFC, I hope they go down now 

He is for any right thinking Chelsea fan, constructed a great squad that made Mourinho's life a lot easier, always conducted himself well, was the same in person as he was on TV and as you say, deserved better. Good luck wherever you end up Claudio and thanks for the memories, both with us and for a great season last year.
