Is Hodgson the right man for LFC

[RichC]

And I would be the first the stand up and applaud him for doing the right thing.......................this is not personal by any means.

same for me - nothing against roy the man at all but these are worrying times at Anfield and we really need someone to drag these players back to winning again - I can't see him doing this

There's a board room meeting going on and it seems. People on Twitter are going haywire

Gutted, I can't check Twitter in work I'll have to wait until I get home.

So what sites are going mad, is anyone like Jim Boardman, Rory Smith commenting on it.

I don't think it will be long before Hodgson is sacked or goes thru pressure, we cannot afford to keep him.

[Neil Young]

Has he resigned yet?

Bill Shankly died 30 years ago this week. The edifice he built at Anfield has been slowly dying for more than three years.

Yesterday, it was clear how critical this club’s condition has become. Liverpool, already dumped out of the Carling Cup by Northampton Town , are now in the relegation zone. Defeat by Blackpool was no shock to anyone who has studied the decline of England’s most successful club.

None of Anfield’s endemic problems can be laid at Roy Hodgson’s door but he has not helped matters. Hodgson is just not up to the job. He does not understand what it means to be a Liverpool manager. That shows in his refusal to take his bosom-buddy Mr. Ferguson to task when the Scot accused Fernando Torres of cheating; it shows in his constant talking-up of ordinary opposition and talking down of expectations; it shows in tactics that waste the talents of Torres and Steven Gerrard.

Kenny Dalglish knew Hodgson was not the man to revive Liverpool. The second-greatest figure in the club’s history said as much when he offered to become manager despite Hodgson’s candidacy.

The Kop know it, too. They chanted “Dalglish” in the wake of defeat yesterday. They know this game. Unlike the men in the boardroom. Christian Purslow, an equity dealer turned club executive, talked up the acquisition of Hodgson as the deal of a lifetime. His opinion was endorsed by Martin Broughton, the chairman, who also fulfils the same role for British Airways. Neither man has even two years’ experience in football. Neither can expect a protracted career in this sport.

After the international break loom Everton in a defining derby. In the meantime, the financial future of the club will be decided by Royal Bank of Scotland, which is owed £285 million by Tom Hicks and George Gillett Jr.

The carpetbagging Americans owners need to be run out of the club. Their City-gent appointments will follow in quick order. And Hodgson? He shows no sign of being able to handle life at Anfield.

It is time to call on Dalglish, the only man who can salvage Shankly’s legacy.

Barnes??
Mcateer?

I think it's hitting me now.I was ok about it all till now,thinking that new owners will arrive along with a new manager and everything will sort itself out,but now i'm thinking what if.........

[Leyton388]

He just pisses you off every time you see him looking clueless on the touchline to his clueless rants on TV. There is no affection towards him what so ever.

[Slinky Skills]

Can't see anything on Twitter about him resigning.

The difference between finishing 7th and where we are placed now is almost £10 million in terms of money from the Premier League

At £800K per place I think we can well afford to sack Roy

Do you really think that if Roy stayed in charge for the whole season we would get relegated? I won't shed a tear for him if he is sacked but there's no way we are goin gto finish this low if he did stay on, not a chance.

I'm sorry but on what basis can you say we won't get relegated?


Judging by the results and more importantly the performances we are relegation candidates.

This is absolutely correct. We are there on merit (demerit), we're where we're supposed to be. The displays are bottom three. There's no cohesion, there are no chances being created, the manager looks clueless and like he doesn't know how to turn it around. The body language of all the players screams demotivation and frustration. Its relegation form. It'll take a change to get it working.
