On Thursday evening, the football world was rocked by the news of the unexpected dismissal of "Leicester City" strategist Claudio Ranieri.
Support for the specialist, who sensationally triumphed in the "Premier" League last year, was immediately expressed by well-known personalities on social media.
"The champion of England and FIFA Manager of the Year is sacked. This is a new football. Claudio, do not be discouraged, no one can erase the history you created," wrote "Man Utd" manager Jose Mourinho.
"Leicester" sacked Ranieri? Complete disrespect. Due to his achievements, he deserved to stay with the team until the end of the season, regardless of results," said journalist Robin Chipperfield.
"What? Ranieri fired?" wondered John Arne Riise.
"After all that he has done for Leicester, the show of the door is inexplicable, unforgivable, and extremely sad," insisted Gary Lineker.
"I hope Leicester drops out of the Premier League. A terrible decision. Football is ruining the world," said Michael Vaughan.
Mahrez & Vardy in 2015/16 = 41 goals, 17 assists. Mahrez & Vardy in 2016/17 = 8 goals, 4 assists. Let Claudio Ranieri down.
After all that Claudio Ranieri has done for Leicester City, to sack him now is inexplicable, unforgivable, and gut-wrenchingly sad.
