    Wrong. Sorry but if someone had done what he did last season they deserve a bit of loyalty and backing, even if it means he gets you relegated.

    For me it is the players! Got too big for their boots! Vardy looks like a league 1 striker.

    To be fair, I've not watched them once this season, not even on highlights, so I can't comment on that.

    I've seen a few including last nights and Vardy for example thought he could take everyone on. The passing was woeful and sadly Huth looks like the Huth of old.

    If they go down can we have Mahrez off them?

    He looked ridiculously good last season. I'd take my chances on him.

    I suppose it would depend on the cost and what other options there are, yes.

    Could literally be half our budget on a one season wonder - one hell of a risk in my eyes. To me we have so many positions we need upgrading if we do get promoted that I think the riskier signing and the high value signings have to be ruled out let alone a risky and high value signing.

    Scandalous in my view. Just shows what the game has become with these modern business owners and one of the many reasons why I have fallen out of love with football.

    Their most successful manager booted out without even completing another season. He deserves better. Their fans deserve better. The owners deserve relegation.

    Correct decision. Last year was a one off, Leicester need to stay in the Prem or else they may take a while to get back up (not helped by having players on big big contracts). Not all his fault, some of his best players have let him down, and partly clubs fault for giving big new contracts to ageing players.

    Ignore last season, he's getting them relegated on current form and every board would take same decision. Players seem to have lost interest and manager can't get them going again

    No he'll get an offer at a bigger club which will offer higher wages and infinitely better weather and better looking woman

    Sad but all true
