Serious question though - how much time does the club give him? I share the sentiment (re last season) but the club moves on. We cannot be relegated. From the club's perspective, that's the bottom line and rightly sentiment will play no part.
FWIW, I do not think we'll be relegated and I trust in the team and Ranieri to turn current form around. But make no mistake, this will require the tinkerman to step up as a manager. And I'm sure he will. Come next season, we'll have moved on. AND we're still in the Champions League!

Call me a nutter, call me what you want but I think Claudio is done. I don't think he will turn this shower of shit around.
Last season was better than anything I will ever experience again with my team and he was a fundamental reason. However, this season is a new season and we look ****ed.

Micky, sometimes you just have to ride it out. We are ****ing terrible at the moment but the man who turned us into Champions is more than capable of turning this round.
It is unthinkable and unimaginable to me to sack Claudio now, we must show faith and hope he turns it round - and he will.

Up until tonight I believed there was a hangover from last season amongst the senior players ...... that myth has been blown out the water tonight, the club is a pale shadow of last season, the demise is Tayloresque. I cannot contemplate the thought of sacking Ranieri after the achievements of last season, but how much longer before he decides to walk away, the players just don't seem to be playing for him anymore.

You should go to the safe house and spread some panic.

It's not that they aren't playing for Ranieri. It's that they aren't playing. At all. They all peaked last season at the same time & it was a perfect storm. The mistake has been to fail to strengthen against the decline. Recruitment has been a ****ing shambles. Totally the opposite of what it's been for the past 5 years.
I don't see a solution but Ranieri has as much of a chance of finding one as anybody & more than anyone who might replace him. The list of candidates if he were to go would make you want to hurt yourself I guarantee it.
