I saw this article from Rory Smith (Telegraph) this morning. It mostly centers on the view that KD will take over very soon to allow FSG chance to look at manager targets end of season.
I have copied some of the artcle but what really wound me up was the Hodgson quote relating to yesterdays win. He says .. " I DON'T KNOW IF THIS WAS A GAME WE HAD TO WIN".
What planet is this fella on?
??
Read for yourself..
Hodgson, for his part, remains committed to fighting for his post and yesterday indicated he felt he retained the ongoing support of Henry and Werner, though his remarks were anything but conclusive.
“I guess so,” replied the Liverpool manager when asked whether he believed he retained the faith of the club’s owners. “I spoke to the owners before the game. They wished me well for the game and sympathised with the frustration I felt after the defeat to Wolves.
“I do not know if this was a game we had to win, but we certainly had to play well. I know about all of the negativity but it does not affect me. If we had won on Wednesday night we would be right up there and I would be being asked about the Champions League. Because we did not, I am being asked about the negativity.” The 63-year-old is rather more adamant on the subject of his relationship with his players, with FSG believed to be concerned at his apparent failure to coax better form out of the likes of Fernando Torres and Steven Gerrard.
“I know when players are behind a club and behind their manager,” he said.
“And I know when they are not. Anyone who seriously suggests after watching us play in these six months that there are any problems on the front is being dishonest. I am satisfied that the team gave the performance they want, I want and the fans want.”
Another pathetic interview from a fella who clearly has no clue......KD in for Blackburn game please.
