17 tweets that sum up the legacy Claudio Ranieri will leave at Leicester City

Leicester fan and former player Gary Lineker had his say about the "gut-wrenchingly sad" decision, and the sentiment from more or less everyone seemed to suggest that - whether or not it was a 'correct' call - is was upsetting to see. 1, https://twitter.com/Tim_Vickery/status/834857836031143936 2. https://twitter.com/Nozza_/status/834892019193561088 3. https://twitter.com/Okwonga/status/834887579124252674 4.  https://twitter.com/JackPittBrooke/status/834862481956757504 5. https://twitter.com/_Zeets/status/834865288898285568 6. https://twitter.com/JohnnyTheNic/status/834864716589711360 7. https://twitter.com/hmclandress/status/834857952771203073 8. https://twitter.com/davidpreece12/status/834859953496137731 9. https://twitter.com/ThatDamnYank/status/834855302960930817 10. https://twitter.com/tomEurosport/status/834887818124136448 11. https://twitter.com/NutmegRadio/status/834856937560883202 12.  https://twitter.com/JamesTylerESPN/status/834856526963687432 13. https://twitter.com/JFfutbol/status/834855970069164032 14. https://twitter.com/iainmacintosh/status/834855334233702401 15. https://twitter.com/Inbedwimaradona/status/834865130450120704 16. https://twitter.com/Masters_JamesD/status/834855242172919809 17. https://twitter.com/A_W_Gordon/status/834857665872404481 Catch up with this week's episode of 888sport Football Friday Live
