German Jag Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 I'm not au fait with the Chinese League but isn't there a lot of travelling between cities for games? With the exceotion of the Saudi league, there isn't much travelling to be done in the leagues in the Middle East. And while a lot of the staff will speak English there will be a lot of people who don't while English is commonly spoken in places like the UAE. And the flight time clearly is a lot longer than it is to the Middle East (you don't hear of people flying off to Shanghai for a weekend break, do you?). So it's not too ridiculous to suggest the Middle East night be a better option than China. If based in Shanghai, then a 3hr flight to places like Changchun in the north / Chongqing in the west. Being based in Guangzhou would take the flight-time to the north to just over 4 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blootoon87 Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 If he's been sacked it's an utter disgrace. He should have had a job for life. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael W Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 If taking a Championship winning side into a relegation battle isn't a sackable offence, I don't know what is. Objectively, Leicester were always going to struggle this season, but they have been left badly prepared for what lay ahead of them. The lack of quality in depth has (predictably) been badly exposed by European football. Ranieri has to take his fair share of the blame fr this. Timing is a bit odd given last night's result wasn't really a terrible one. A defeat nonetheless but they are well in the tie. Maybe just one defeat too much.

jamamafegan Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Shit man. Not good. Their last result wasn't bad at all. They should have waited until after the second leg. I don't see them getting to the next round now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NorthernJambo Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Bizarre timing but Jesus f**k, they've been abysmal. Only really lost Kante and spent on a replacement. If they were definitely safe Ranieri would be as well. Shame as we all enjoyed Leicester's success and Ranieri is a likeable guy but he has to go.
