Hodgson , clearly said at the end of his first season in charge that if the club wanted to progress they would need to improve the playing staff. They haven’t and the progress is hard to see. It would seem he doesn’t get what he really needs or what he thinks the club needs.
Maybe Hodgson in his last years of management has been to loyal. After all this is almost certainly his last management job. And his boyhood club at that.
And quiet honestly to reliant on the effect Wilf, has on our results. But then again you work with what you have, and what we have are limited when Wilf isnt there.
Hodgson supplies the tactics, its players that fail to sometimes do the basics well on the pitch.

Easy for RH to blame his results on not having better players. What does his Liverpool and England experiences tell us about his capabilities?

I think it tells us that Hodgson, probably wasn’t the best manager in history.
I don’t think anyone is saying or thinks Hodgson, is , or was the best manager in the world.
But his career has not been all bad either. Taking Fulham, to a major European final was a great achievement, and leaving them as a solid Premier side, giving West Brom, their best seasons for some times . And his record all around Europe, has mainly been considered successful.
I would see him moving over now, but only because he has probably done all he can with this lot. Let someone else see what they can do.
But if you look at ,Fulham, W B, neither improved after he left them, and they are completely comparable to us, other than to say he possibly got a little more out of both of them.

I get the impression from this board, the BBS poll and social meeja that there is a ground swell that want him gone now rather than the end of the season. So the natural question is who to replace him with.

If results slide so badly that relegation becomes a real risk then you'd expect the Board to change things and put the brakes on. However, I would reckon that any decent replacement that they'd want long term will already be in a job but potentially available in the summer.

Liverpool were struggling at the time especially with their American owners and Roy wasn't allowed much time because they require instant returns even if behind the scenes they were having problems, I read somewhere that even one of their older big stars said as much and that Roy was treated unfairly I can find this if you don't believe me, but in hindsight Roy was probably not the right person for them and with the England job he definitely got short changed from his players in that Iceland game, too many just didn't turn up for it and Kane wanted to do the corners because he was the best at it before you mention that crap about him doing them lol, the players failure was also mentioned in the papers at the time and I can also find that if you so desire.

In short, that appears to be true whether you are watching it live and having to experience the dross we play, or utilising facts to justify it.

I think it is only 2 in 21 we have won without Zaha and hardly scored a goal in the process? That is a damning statistic for sure.

Loving how Barnsley are sticking it to Chelsea. Great pressing game. Viva Israel.

Just talking about this. Has good managerial experience and meets Parish’s Palace connection criteria. One to look out for

Since the beginning of 2014-15 when Zaha re-joined us from Man.U we've lost 89.4% of games without him ..are you suggesting the same for all the managers we've had since? lol, Spurs struggle without Kane although not as obvious as Zaha with us it is noticeable, I feel you've just jumped on this without thinking it out because having a really top class player amongst a group of just good players is always going to play out the same way it has with us, when Mr Hodgson took over the England job the squads average age was like we are now over 30 and he along with Ray Lewington and Gary Neville rebuilt the whole team to an age of 23/24 ..no one knows that or wants to mention it lol and what has our manager been doing recently with us ..oh he's brought in Ferguson, Eze, Mateta, Mitchel and Riedewald, but it's much more fun to find things to have a go at our manager about isn't it.
