Clemence upset by Hodgson critics

05 October 2010 08:30
Liverpool legend Ray Clemence believes it is "sad" that Roy Hodgson's managerial qualities are under scrutiny after just three months in charge. The Reds fans chanted the name of ex-boss Kenny Dalglish during Sunday's 2-1 home defeat by Blackpool which left their side in the bottom three of the Barclays Premier League. Clemence believes the situation will not change significantly until the Tom Hicks-George Gillett ownership position is sorted out. The former England keeper said: "I can't believe after two to three months that people are questioning the man (Hodgson). "He has managed and coached at the highest level. He got Switzerland to over achieve with his organisation and tactical knowledge. "He has coached in different places in Europe. He made Fulham into an excellent side, took them to a situation they've never been in their history."
