Ciao Claudio...

Should Leicester have sacked Ranieri?  Football is a hard-headed business and Leicester are in danger of relegation from the Premiership, which would have significant financial consequences.  On the other hand, Ranieri guided them to a totally wonderful and unexpected Premiership title last season, which must have brought in a significant amount of money.  The club said that the decision was "painful but necessary".  I can perhaps understand why they did it, but I think the way that they did it - casual, off-hand, apparently uncaring - does not reflect on them well. And as ever the players who have failed to perform are still there, pulling in the ackers!
