And those who are on the case of Gunners manager Wenger were quick to poke fun at the Frenchman on Twitter, mocking his failure to win a league title for 13 years.
Some pointed out that previous Premier League winning managers Roberto Mancini, Manuel Pellegrini, Jose Mourinho and now Ranieri had all been sacked - while Wenger remained.
And others poked fun at the Gunners boss, claiming in light of so many title winners being given the boot it was his ploy to finish fourth to keep his job.
But the chorus of disapproval at Ranieri's treatment was criticised by former Manchester United star Gary Neville.
The Sky pundit claimed it was hypocritical for those calling for Wenger to be sacked to then blast Leicester for swinging the axe on Ranieri.
