Very very naive to say nobody had heard of them before, think you should look at some of the players that started at Leicester and went onto great things.
Still a fecking ridiculous decision though bless em.

Lasted a bit longer than Jose did last year, so figure it's about right. You're the CHAMPIONS of England, FFS. Play like it or get the manager fired, or if you're the gaffer, start kicking some ass and get them on the same page. Ranieri probably had too much loyalty for the guys who won last year but should've given them the hook sooner than later. Also seems he lost a bunch in the dressing room leading to some disjointed playing.
Feel sorry for Ranieri, but then he made history, and was about to repeat history if he didn't get the hook now. I do think they were going down if they didn't shake things up now.

This and This.
Just goes to show they can step it up a bit in Europe but cant be arsed in the league.
Disgraceful decision from owner's of Leicester City to sack Claudio Ranieri.
After his achievements of last season, Ranieri should have been supported by his board, no matter how bad this season became and even of they were relegated.
Without Ranieri, Leicester lose all their charm: I hope they are relegated and disappear into lower league football.
Utterly classless owners and fans.

Dilly dang dilly gone!
I wonder what odds I can get on Leicester relegated and UCL finalists
Can't really release a large part of your squad midseason. Managers job is to get the players to play for him/the club if they don't he will be gone.
Im actually fecking angry about this!!! How fecking dare they? Bunch of utter cnuts.
If rumors are to be true how did he lose the dressing Room ?
They were apparently annoyed that he was getting most of the credit and not them. All a bit immature really. They wanted to play 442 as they had done all of last season and Ranieri was changing things up.
They were ridiculously poor against Sevilla, and were fortunate the game finished 2-1.
I didn't watch the game, but I read pundits saying it was the best Leicester had played all season.
"How come my name is on the list?"
Disgraceful, he should have the right to take them as far as could in the CL.
Imagine the new manager goes into win the CL, ala Di Matteo. The credit will go to him not Ranieri
Hope they get relegated now

Sadly this has been coming for months not only did he lose the players but also the coaching staff as well, I would have loved him to have turned it around and walked in the summer of his own free will.
Thank you Don Claudio for the best season of my life, I truly wish it hadn't come to this

Football is a business now, it doesn't work like that. There's a lot of money they'll lose if relegated. I'm not surprised that he had to go. Despite their goal against Sevilla, they've been awful. Something had to happen and it's easier to sack the manager than the entire starting 11. Now that Ranieri is gone, maybe the players finally are going to realise what kind of a mess they're in because they've played as if they don't care. This is a way to hopefully make sure that the players get a "wake up call".
Hopefully they'll avoid getting relegated because it would be sad to see the fairytale end in such a way so soon. The players still have the ability and a new manager can maybe be the "injection" they need.
Really,feck that's bad form.
Embarrassing two managers in procession isn't the way to go.
Chelsea did the same
There is no fairytale left. In sacking Ranieri, they've killed the fairytale with kitchen knives and pints for blood all over the street's of Leicester.
Whats left is the cold reality that the players let down a wonderful man, the fans have ideas way above their reality and the owners are gutless, unprincipled bastards.
Feck them all.

Hope they're up for the Liverpool game.
I am really starting to dislike football...
Great, I was ready for an easy three points and preparation for Arsenal and Leicester owners wait until NOW to sack him.
All Leicester players' output will increase 20-40% immediately. Slippery fish banana of a game all of a sudden.

Professional football is mostly business and a small part of it is sport...

Good decision for the club. No matter what anyone says, he hasn't delivered at all this season . Football fans are fickle idiots sometimes
You never deserved Ranieri and I really wish you'd never won it last year now, despite supporting you.
You have no idea how much I despise your club and your fans and board right now.
I will celebrate if you get relegated this year.
#LeicesterMostHatedClubInTheCountry.
Unfortunately for Ranieri, it was the right decision. It's the same with the players - no one is bigger than the club...
Thank you for confirming you're a cnut
Damn, football can be cruel. That's two sackings he's had in England where I genuinely felt sorry for him. He just can't leave a club in disgrace it seems.
Have fun supporting your rotten disgraceful club

You need to try and do something to save the season. It is obvious that it is not working anymore with him. See if this will cause a positive reaction.
It's not, and it's very fanciful, but Ranieri has earned that level of support
Modern day football hasn't operated with Leicester winning league titles either... So maybe he could've been the exception?
Anyway, be hilarious if Mancini or Hodgson take over... They're both useless
Hopefully these complete and utter morons get relegated.
I don't recall saying 'good luck'.
Did not see that coming.
What's he done?
Undermined the manager.
Played for City.
Why is everyone so shocked? Jose got the same treatment last year. In fact, even harsher, as Chelsea were only midtable!
