Hodgson managed the team both tactically and mentally as a mid-table team. His interviews irritated the heck out of me. It was like he didn't realize the calibre of team he was managing. A lot has been made of the squad depth but this collection of players was much much better than the results were showing. Why on earth he didn't allow the players to pass and move is beyond me? Instead he had them pumping wayward balls down the pitch at every opportunity.
The difference in both style of play and results since Kenny came along is staggering. You would think that a man with the experience of Hodgson would be able to adapt to the players at his disposal but not so. He was so patently unsuited to managing Liverpool it's not even funny.
Like Torres I've turned the page on Hodgson now. I'm glad to be shut of both of them quite honestly.
