        This would have been Brilliant in so many ways
        Former England manager Roy Hodgson says he turned down an offer to take part in Strictly Come Dancing. (Big Issue)

          What a hero! And what a legend qualifying England for a couple of tournaments. I dont think theres a person on the planet with a higher opinion of themselves than this arrogant prick.



          Hodgson added: “I was totally uninterested in those type of comments, which I regard as purely irrelevant and dishonest. No one whose opinion I respect would have said anything like that, otherwise I would have heard about it.

          “I certainly didn’t feel suicidal and I certainly didn’t feel self-doubt either because I think probably the four years, especially the last two years after the World Cup, fashioning a team from a very young group of players, many of whom weren’t even in their club side, and playing the sort of football we were capable of playing – we were playing very, very well. I am very, very proud of that achievement. I think it is probably the best work, in many ways, that I did or have done so far. But of course, any work you do as a sporting person, a football coach or any coach, if it is good work you’ve got to have something – a championship – to show for it. We didn’t get that, quite the reverse. But I believe people who work within the game and inside sport realise what I did and certainly I got all sorts of messages from all sorts of important friends and acquaintances. So there was never any doubt I would collapse in any way with self-doubt.

          “If anything, I think the experience makes you stronger. In football however well you think you are doing, however well your life is going, there is always a mugger there lurking in the shadows, to bash you over the head when you least expect it.”

            His delusional arrogance and complete refusal to acknowledge accountability is infuriating.

              "Important friends and acquaintances" ie people who are loads better than fans, who sussed him out long ago.

                He just seems incapable of retaining any data which would make him self aware, or even moderately humble.

                Of the top of my head ... say.... England losing 2-1 to Iceland?

                  Maybe if I was English it would infuriate me but he is just comedy gold so I just laugh at his delusion.

                    I am English and I would change Infuriate to laughable also. The Tony Blair of football, Way beyond delusional.

                        He is like Trump if Trump were able to express himself in more than 140 characters.
                        I don't hate people. I just feel better when they aren't around.

                          It infuriates me not because I'm English or anything to do with him being ex-England manager - I just hate him and still resent him. I laugh at his failure but his arrogance and refusal to accept any blame I find intensely aggravating.

                            Ha ha ha! Your YouTube things make me howl. Never tire of watching them as they pretty much sum up exactly what Hodgson is like ha ha!
                            Klopp on LFC vs MUFC (March 9th 2016) - "This is why I love football. This is why we watched it when we were young. I can still not have enough of it."

                              I don't get why no-one calls him out on all this crap, this bit for example:

                              "... especially the last two years after the World Cup, fashioning a team from a very young group of players, many of whom weren’t even in their club side"

                              Who are these players? The only player I can really imagine could count as not being in his club side when Hodgson picked him was Marcus Rashford who wasn't a regular at Man Utd, almost everyone else in the Euro 2016 squad played week in week out.
                              The only gracious way to accept an insult is to ignore it; if you can't ignore it, top it; if you can't top it, laugh at it; if you can't laugh at it, it's probably deserved.

                                The bloke just makes things up as he goes along. The squad below is who he took and baring Rashford and maybe Delph they're all starters.
