You'll never take away what we achieved last season but this season has been pathetic.
The tinker man did not have to tinker much last season ... but now he has started to tinker
you are seeing the true Claudio which is largely clueless ... yesterday Millwall were down to ten
men so Claudio brings on a 36 year old error prone defender ( his error resulted in their goal ) and takes off our best player ?
He decided to try a diamond formation for some bizarre reason against Southampton which left us so exposed their able wide
players had a field day and destroyed us. He persists with two plodding centre halfs who are both 33ish and has bought in no proper cover.
Now Kante has gone their limited abilty , age and corresponding slowness is brutally exposed. Huth and Morgan cannot play the ball out of the back they just hoof it up to a way out of form Vardy so we lose possession.
I really don't want to see Claudio go but his position seems more untenable by the day.... next three premier league games are Liverpool , Hull and Arsenal. Can't see anything from the Liverpool and Arsenal games so I think if we don't beat Hull we're going to the championship with players probably on higher wages than the Everton players ..... you could not make this up.

Hope your lot go down and never come back up again
 

Pathetic behaviour wanting Ranieri out. Absolutely pathetic. You are a nothing club who can't even fill away allocations as defending champions. Yous mock other teams for not winning the league even though they've won it about 8 times more than you. Every time I hear that champions of Europe you'll never sing that (especially against infinitely bigger clubs than you lot) I want Jamie vardy battered over the head by a wkd bottle
 
Nowt wrong with them wanting Ranieri to go. There's very little vitriol, that I've seen anyway. It worked last season, it's not working this season. Makes no sense to keep him on due to some sense of honour.

Say thanks, and tell him it was great whilst it lasted. Then move on.

Yes you do. I honestly can't believe my eyes. The man goes to Leicester and oversees the most unlikely sporting miracle in history and now, all of a sudden, it was pure luck and Steve Wood from GOT knows better? Support your manager ffs

At the risk of sounding like an Arsenal fan, he's got to go now! The players have completely downed tools for him which isn't fair on him but there just doesn't seem like any other option. Some of his tactics and substitutions have been baffling to say the least.

I would have taken the title and then relegation if offered last season but it doesn't make it any less annoying. We've basically wasted our best ever chance to establish ourselves as a premier league mainstay. The majority of real Leicester fans weren't expecting anything too extravagant this season, just to consolidate and have a nice little Champions league run for a bonus. We have been nothing short of disgraceful

Got Sevilla tonight which we all should be buzzing for but I can't see anything other than a 5 or 6 nil loss. Might bet on.some handicaps for some easy money tonight lol
 
It's OK fans of other clubs saying that its disgraceful Leicester fans wanting Ranieri sacked but you'd be exactly the same if you was watching this type of football week in week out. And that's what it is, not the results that we're so angry about its the lack of change of style and tactics.

We've always been a yo-yo club so relegation isn't the be all and end all but winning the league should have been a platform to establish ourselves as a mid table prem team but we've blown it. Everything from recruitment to the management has been shambolic this season. Looking at the way you lot talk about managers past and present you'd be wanting exactly the same thing

I don't get this thought process either about keeping ranieri.

If there is a genuine chance of relegation and he can't avoid it then bringing someone in who can avoid it would surely be the best solution?

I personally think ranieri has always been a average manager at best who got about by being Italian rather than being any good. He oversaw a title win, full credit to him there. But the same title win turned Huth and Morgan into top class defenders out of the blue for example yet I don't see a queue for their signature. It is possible things just fell into place perfectly last year and personally I'm made up you guys won the league. Better than the usual winners anyhow.

But would he have been sacked if this was 12 months ago and he was doing a bad job? So why not take that into account now?
