Personally well intended as it may be by the op I think this is highly unlikely , but if it's true in I'm the Hughes in camp would be a disasterous appointment .

So we don't want the manager who won the premier league with one of the relegation favourites last season then?

The guy did an amazing job at Leicester, and know one can argue with that, and i don't reckon any other manager in the world could of done what he did.

Plus lets not forget Leicester were one of the teams named as drug cheats, it all went very dry quiet on that though!

Not the right candidate imo. Loads of context to his achievements. Got Pearson's team template and Shakespeare's fitness regime and that Walsh fella who went to Everton. No need for him to do much training nor tinkering. He did take them out on the piss at xmas. When it came to replacing Kante (and half a season without Schmeichel) and being more hands on, and did a bit of tinkering it went sour. Player revolt.
He's a bit too genial for Coates.
When Hughes goes presumably the whole back room goes too.
Not aware of Ranieri having that kind of infrastructure.
He walked away from Leicester a lone wolf.
Nah.

Claudio Ranieri? That's a strange way of spelling Michael Laudrup.

The one potential candidate I fear Coates appointing if ever Hughes leaves us is Roy Hodgson.. He's instantly available and said he still fancies club manangement. Definitely fits the Experienced box on his CV and im just thinking Coates and him might have a rapport. Despite the obvious slant that he hung Shawcross out to dry does anyone in the know have any knowledge if Coates and Woy are buddies or nothing to fear here?!

Priceless.
A bloke takes over at a team who avoided relegation the year before by going on a bit of a run. He then turns them into the champions of England and all of a sudden it's down to the coaching staff and nothing to do with him at all.
You couldn't write it.

No matter who the manager is, SGS will support this club like he always has done.
Anyone who wouldn't support Ranieri can stay away from his club.

It's ridiculous that a manager who won the title less than 12 months ago can be considered a bad appointment....but Ranieri fits that bill IMO, other than a freak year, his last 10 years in management have been nothing short of appalling.

I don't think it's down to coaching staff, I do think it's down to his shift away from what Leicester were good at last year and his constant tinkering. Craig Shakespeare has just reverted to 15/16 Leicester, and it's worked a treat.

Not sure your assessment that he 'turned' them into anything really. His removal points to that. More a figurehead than an architect imo. A fit and firing squad with few injuries in his winning year. No doubt he enabled it, but not created it. I just don't see him as a good fit for us. The Academy aspect etc.

Yeah I reckon there are. Shakespeare has proved nothing yet other than those players had stopped playing for their manager,the man who turned them into league champions and possibly their only ever glory in what will or has been the highest point in all their careers. However people dress it up he was the main reason they won the league. He signed Kante which turned them into a completely different side. Whether he would be the right fit for us or not is up for debate, my only issue is with folk who just write his input off in what was one of the most unbelievable stories in football ever. The manager carries the can when things don't go well, but similarly when things go well he has to take the credit as well. Ranieri isn't a bad manager, he can't be and I reckon there is a massive chance he could get a better tune out of this squad that Hughes has put together at the moment.

Ranieri's record;
Cagliari - from Serie C1 to Serie A in successive seasons Napoli - qualified for UEFA Cup Fiorentina - first season promotion to Serie A, then won Coppa Italia and Supercoppa Italia Valencia - won Copa del Rey, UEFA Intertoto Cup and qualified for Champions' League, UEFA Super Cup winners Chelsea - Prem runners up, Champions' League semi-finalists. Club improved every season he was there Parma - saved club from almost certain relegation Monaco - promoted first season and finished runners up Ligue 1 in second season Juventus - immediately after promotion, took team to 3rd place in Serie A qualifying for Champions' League. Beat Real Madrid home and away in Champions' League. Roma - took over mid-season and went on a 24 game unbeaten run just missing out on winning Serie A Leicester - won Prem in first season. Champions' League run.
That's not a shabby record and yet there are folk on here who think we can do better - unbelievable Geoff!!

Good luck finding them chap.
Go ahead and peddle your rags to riches story and conveniently omit the bit on the other side ... you know, when the same (and that's the important bit) manager took the same team to the brink of a relegation battle, which would have happened if the board and the supporter base hadn't (pretty much in unison) decided it was time for him to go.
Just step back for a moment and ask yourself, just how bad it must have it really gotten for that decision (after winning the title against all the odds) to have been taken?
