Unconfirmed reports suggest struggling Leicester City have sacked manager Craig Shakespeare.
Shakespeare was only appointed permanently as manager four months ago after stepping up to guide them to safety in the Premier League in February when Claudio Ranieri was sacked.
The English Premier League club are languishing in the relegation zone with just one win from their opening eight fixtures.

I wonder if the bookies make PH favourite ;)
Who is going to go there? One bad run and you get sacked!

Next job for Sam Allardyce I reckon.

If you're not winning the Premier League then you're struggling seems to be Leicester's way of thinking.

In recent times, have any of these 'promote from within' full time appointments ever worked?
(There probably is some, I just can't think of any. Apart from Zidane, obviously. And Guardiola did alright. But I meant in this country anyway).

Eddie Howe has done alright but I know what you mean.

Sam Allardyce, Chris Coleman and Roberto Mancini are the 3 favourites. Ranieri is 25/1 to come back :)

I’m still astounded they sacked Ranieri after all his achievements.

Sorry to hear that. Hopefully Chugger will be set for life with the pay off. If he wasn't already, he's a highly thought of coach, shame he never had a good run at the England set up thanks to Sam and another ex Town, Scott McGarvey.

It seems like Leicester are forgetting they're well.. Leicester.
Shame that he was not given more time and even though it hasn't worked out, I'm sure Shaky and Appleton will make a formidable pairing at another club..

If you don't win for six games your toast at Leicester.
Still the backstabber can't have any complaints.

Just heard a press statement "Craig's family are very upset by his sacking especially Shakespears Sister who wanted him to Stay" 🎶🎵

Apparently Leicester sacked him because he couldn’t get the team to ‘play right’
