Sad I know but a lot of the fans aren't happy with Ranieri and some want him out. If we had a manager who won the league and struggled the season after do you think our fans would be the same or would we give them as much time as needed?
I personally can't understand it the bloke should be a legend and because the over performed last year hel more than likely end up being sacked eventually

Haway mate, some of their players aren't good enough for them anymore. Ya nar, those bottom 6 type players...... Hmmmm.Someone tell their vagrants who frequent ours then!
There'd be a fire sale, they would probably be able to shift the better playersI suspect that if they were to go down (unlikely) they may have financial problems. They gave out big contracts in the summer & also bought some expensive players. How many have got relegation clauses in their contracts?
OK, they have done well & got a packet from the Champions League so that will protect them for a while but the outlook would be uncertain to say the least.
Exactly. They let defences push up in possession last season and as soon as they won the ball banged it into the space behind them and off would go Vardy and pals in a foot race. No balls to feet necessary. Problem is it's not hard to stop once defences are aware of it. There was also their well worked set pieces, they came close twice yesterday with those.I don't think anything has changed with them. Their game play is all about hitting the front 3 with long first time balls, as soon as the ball comes out of defence into the midfield the forwards are on their bikes knowing that a long ball is coming over the top of the oppo defence whether is be left right or centre.
I think oppo teams are wiser to it now and set up accordingly. Moyes did his homework correctly. He is no mug
You normally find out how good a teams support really is by their away following I reckon. Just because they won the league does not guarantee that there support would increase, especially at away games.What annoys me more is the fact they're the Champions and they couldn't sell out their allocation on a Saturday to a place relatively near them in terms of the Premier League aswell
They've been found out. Simple as that.
Dunno, I can't remember what he was calledWhere's that Leicester fan who always turned up giving it large when they were winning?
Reidy gave us our best years for decades and was turned on immediately when it all turned sour...So yes to the OPs question
I'm sure they've lost a few from the back room team as well.It's a tough one. Their players played way above their actual level last season. So much so, they have been accused of cheating which of course has not been proven.
It does make you wonder though considering their fall from grace in such a short period. They've only lost one player in Kante, yes he's a great player but it shouldn't impact upon a side to this degree. They look like a side threatened by relegation, not simply a side suffering from poor form.
The whole situation is suspicious imo.
Back to the question, if their fans think relegation is a real possibility, which it seems to be then I think they have every right to be concerned/want change. However, it's too early to let Ranieri go just yet, he at least deserves time to turn things around.
