Here is the problem with Leicester: the greatest day in the history of the club is almost certainly gone.
What could Roberto Mancini, or any successor to Claudio Ranieri, achieve that would match the euphoria of last year? What prospect is there of Champions League football, beyond this season — a campaign that may have one match to run?
Indeed, how likely are Leicester to be in Europe in the foreseeable future, considering their previous appearance was roughly 17 years ago and lasted one first-round tie with Red Star Belgrade?
There will be praise if a new manager keeps them up — although Leicester were not in the bottom three at any time this season, before sacking Ranieri — but how can it match the achievement of winning the league?
