Claudio Ranieri has joked that he may completely rotate his squad for Leicester City's title-deciding clash with Manchester UnitedΒ on Sunday.

The Foxes can, quite unbelievably, win the Premier League with a victory over Louis van Gaal's men at Old Trafford, having taken a seven-point lead over Tottenham at the top of the table.

Ranieri earned himself the nickname of 'The Tinkerman' during his Chelsea days, repeatedly altering his starting XI, but has seemingly changed his policy at the King Power Stadium after making just 27 changes all season - a Premier League low.

But that could be all about to change at Old Trafford, with the Italian joking that he may completely revamp his team for the most important clash in Leicester's history.


"I have a lot of choice. I have 24 players. Maybe I'll change them all! The Tinkerman never changes his ways!" he joked.

With Leicester's fairytale showing no signs of slowing down and Ranieri's magic touch unlikely to wear off, such a change would probably lead to a 3-0 win...
