PSA: RANIERI DIDN'T DIE, HE JUST GOT SACKED BECAUSE HIS TEAM ARE ABOUT TO BE RELEGATED.

After all that Claudio Ranieri has done for Leicester City, to sack him now is inexplicable, unforgivable and gut-wrenchingly sad.

No, it's quite explicable.  I mean, come on.  The only shocking thing here — other than the overreaction — just as with Mourinho last season, was how long Leicester City waited.  The timing is poor; they should've either done it earlier, or not at all and ride the bomb down like in Dr. Strangelove.

Like, the lesson here is, don't be within a point of the relegation zone (especially after winning the title), and your job should be secure.
