Not sure about performances but their results have been poor. They're in the bottom 3. They played very well on the opening day in the 4-3 defeat to Arsenal, and I think they won the week after but haven't won since. What I don't understand is clubs like this giving an unproven manager like him the job, only to sack him so quickly when things don't work. Bit like Terry Connor at Wolves when they sacked McCarthy.

letsalldothebeattie Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Not surprised. Pointed out before the MNF that if Leicester didn’t win last night they would have a similar record to last season when Ranieri got sacked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucille's Thirsty Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Shakespeare was a weasel IMO. You would be delighted of course if you got the chance to manage a PL side and the champions but he seemed like a rat that was one of the reason Ranieri got the boot.

Bozi Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Sacked their greatest ever manager because players had downed tools, fawned over players to give a guy clearly out of his depth the job, now they are reaping what they sowed. Absolutely no sympathy for them when they get relegated this season, these "big" players will walk away and Leicester will find themselves marooned in nowhere for years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paolo Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 The players need to take a long hard look at themselves. Achieved something many players only dream about user Ranieri, then their inflated egos and attitude caused them to **** him over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You only had to look at him and listen to him speak to know that he was never a manager! Has so many characteristics of every other ENGLISH Managers! None of them are any good! Redknapp, Bruce, Allardyce, Hodgson, they all seem so out of their depth with old fashioned, traditional English values. Would you give Dyche a club like Man City to Run? or Man U or Chelsea? No!

Debut 4 Posted October 17, 2017 Share Posted October 17, 2017 Ancellotti? Not many thought Benitez would go to Newcastle. If Leicester want to rekindle playing like champions they need to think like them. They must have the money for wages and being recent EPL winners is a carrot, they'd still be seen as a challenging job for decent bosses out there because of it too. But time is running out fast for them and their stock is diminishing slowly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not too long ago the EPL was well populated with highly thought of Scottish managers but even they are now a scarce commodity.

I agree he probably won't leave Celtic but there is an appeal for a manager to try and bring Leicester back to top 6. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
