Utterly pointless sacking. A necessary one. Righting the wrong of a very silly appointment. All about building what momentum they can, even if they're doomed. West Brom are a good example.

No chance of stopping up won 3 in 17 aint gonna start winnin now. Bad recruitment. Feel a bit sorry for Ranieri all gone south since winning the title with Leicester.

I mean was it bad at Nantes i didnt follow it being France. He definitely had a massive part to play when Leicester did the unthinkable. Deserves full credit for that along with many people that season. Didnt Shakespeare and some players shaft him the following season. People also forget he did an ok job at Chelsea before Russians took over and sacked him coz he wasnt high profile enough.

You'd have thought that would have been enough for him to have turned things round.

Definitely deserves all the credit for the Leicester story though, which will always be the greatest of the (ugh) Premier League era.

Definitely deserves all the credit for the Leicester story though, which will always be the greatest of the (ugh) Premier League era. I always felt that Ranieri,like many managers,was better when he had fewer options to play with.That title winning side at Leicester, the first eleven presented itself,which is not to denigrate his achievement there as there was still a lot (of man management in particular) to do.The following season,with money to spend,more options to choose from,he seemed to revert somewhat to his 'Tinkerman' ways, A few parallels with Hughes in that way,imho.

Watched them play Southampton last night. Something was not right, they didn't seem to put any effort in and looked worse than we did last season.

Gary Rowett said on talksport today he would be interested in the job , he also said that new managers tell supporters what they want to hear , he also said he got sacked on the day he was training the squad , and that a few players had rang him after his sacking to offer him support

He benefited from Nigel Pearson's outstanding work at Leicester before he got there, the pieces were in place and Leicester were really cooking at the end of the season before he arrived.

Owners at fault, at least we can put to bed some of the bollocks spouted on here that he was better than Jokanovic and prompted an upturn.

Do you believe that they would have won the league with Pearson at the helm then? I certainly don't. Pearson was responsible for the first half of their Premiership winning season (Ranieri just let the momentum from their great escape to continue) and in the second half of the season Ranieri just made them hard to beat and took the pressure off them by being calm - very good hands off wiley old management. When he got more hands on the following season it all started to go wrong. When he was appointed at Fulham I thought it was a weird one - he isn't what you'd call a fire fighter and that laid back style was never going to do the trick with a struggling side. Lovely bloke - but wrong club at the wrong time. And Fulham look doomed - and shows what I know as I thought they'd do fine having seen them last year.
