Claudio Ranieri doesn't fear sack and is focused on Leicester City survival
Premier League champions sit 16th in the table ahead of Sunday’s meeting with Manchester United at home
The possibility of being sacked is far from Claudio Ranieri’s thoughts as the Leicester City manager is intent on ensuring the struggling Premier League champions maintain their top-flight status.
Following their stunning title triumph last season, Leicester have continued producing the unexpected, only this time they are battling relegation as they sit 16th in the table, two points above the bottom three.
“It’s not my philosophy to think about this. If my thoughts go there ... I remember what was said by my chairman the first time I met him. He said ‘if we go down will you stay with us?’ And I said ‘yes’,” Ranieri said.
“Now why do I have to think about this? I am thinking to fight and to survive. That’s it. I don’t speak about my position with the owner. Never do I speak with the chairman about my position.
“We know that is football. When everything is right, everyone is fantastic. When you start to lose, the manager is bad.”
