    <peacedove>Hodgson has kept his job because he is English: Former England boss Sven-Goran Eriksson believes that Roy Hodgson would have gotten the sack already if he was foreign, according to the Daily Telegraph. &#8220;I know for sure, if that had been me, I would have been sacked at once. If he were foreign, he would be sacked. I&#8217;m quite sure about that,&#8221; said Eriksson. He also claimed that he would return to the post of England manager without hesitation but &#8220;that will not happen.&#8221;

    another bitter sniper. erkisson took so much money from England and lost it all . that's his problem. he got plenty of time with better players.

    Just cos he is right doesn't mean the motive for commenting isn't still clear.

    At least Hodgson is not sleeping with anyone at the FA Headquarters. Ten million sterling a year is too much to turn your back on. Considering that Erkisson is broke.<laugh>

    isn't hodgson getting a scandalous amount of cash as well.. ok half the erikkson money but still at least 5 times more than he's worth. 9after all he did qualify so he has to be worth a little)

    Wrong.

    hes kept his job as the alternatives are terrifying or Harry Redknapp. Do you understand? Harry ****ING Redknapp.

    how would he cope? The **** is he going to buy on deadline day?

    i would be inclined to agree that if the basis for selection is being english that 'appy 'arry the car dealer is the only candidate left standing.

    And all the old school managers in europe are at big clubs or on vast wages or already out to pasture so its redknapp as you say or worse tim sherwood!

    Probably has a point. Roys had 2 tournaments, one we just about got out the group and then got hammered.

    This time, not even getting out the group and possibly losing all 3 games. This myth of he has us playing decent is annoying as well

    The performance against Italy was better than it was last year but doesn't mean we played well.

    If he was anyone other than Hodgson he'd be getting slated in the press.

    He's absolutely right, his tactics have been awful and when England struggle to qualify for the Euros then we will see him gone.

    Honestly would think Rafa would take the job if offered.

    Roy kept his job because he's a yes man.

    it was funny how it was reputedly sterling put in at am or whatever to harrass pirlo rather than any positive intent.. then pirlo just laughs and goes and plays in a different gap and England get nowhere... sterling plays well by accident should be the headline.

    hodgosn is technically bereft so if we wish to just wiat until thre is another optino fine but i fancy i'd rather go out than get to euro 2016 then at least it'd be realistic.

    Winning tournaments is his forte, would reach knock outs.

    Is it?

    2005 Champions league
    2006 FA cup
    2013 Europa League.

    Not exactly amazing is it? 2 of those achieved using someone elses squad.

    Reached champions league final and League cup final with us. So that's four finals in six years with Liverpool. He knows how to go far.
