Who would accept defeat against Everton if it meant

[Neil Young]

No-one really wants to lose today. It's just an index of how much people want rid of The Hodgson.

I'm absolutely going to be roaring the lads on today, but in answering that ridiculous hypothetical question only, I would, in theory, accept one defeat, if it resulted in a guaranteed change of manager. That's how desperate I am to see him gone

[Lee]

I can imagine Roy preparing his excuses for todays performance already.

[danperkins]

We have new owners

If and when Roy gets the sack I expect a top class manager in his place, so no I dont want us to lose and get Kenny instead.

Kenny was only my wish if Roy got the sack while the 2 parasites still owned us

Pellegrini please

If Pellegrini can't win a single thing with a squad worth about 400 million quid, he sure as **** won't win **** all with our squad. No thanks. Pellegrini is prob better managing a club with less expectations, sound familiar?

Like Hodgson you mean?

Exactly, Pellegrini had a year with a world class team and some of the most talented players in the world and he literally won **** all, so no thanks. Roy has had a mare under difficult circumstances, but nonetheless a complete mare, and will get until Christmas IMO, and i for one hope he turns it around starting with a win today, nothing else but 3 points will do Roy.

Pellegrini actually set a new club record in points. Just unlucky for him that Barcelona made the best season ever by a Spanish club the same season.

He also got a ridiculously high points total (96) and scored over 100 goals and won all but 7 games.

You can't do much when the league winners get 99 points.

Don't let more than one factor get in the way though Daniel.

Yeah, that criticism of him seems ludicrous to me. Also had to blend the team.

And what did he win Matthew? Wonder why he got the sack,hmmm? When you spend 250 million in a transfer window adding to an already excellent squad you sure as **** better be winning some silverware

[Kenneth]

Yep. I would consider his time at real as a success really..

[danperkins]

Yeah, that criticism of him seems ludicrous to me. It's also worth noting he had a significant role in improving or maintaining the level at which a lot of those players played.

He won nothing hence why he got sacked mate

[Reece]

He was up against one of the best teams in the history of football.

danperkins you don't half seem to take the most simplistic view possible on things.

[danperkins]

What about Champs League, Cups etc? And he did not win the league regardless of the points total, it is irrelevent.

[Shaggy]

Pellegrini did a good job in his one season at Real (to say he didn't purely because he didn't win anything is utterly myopic) and did a great job at Villarreal. His teams play fantastic football, and has displayed greater credentials for the LFC job in his last two jobs than Hodgson ever has.
