Manager has made the same mistakes as previous managers by choosing his favourites and sticking a couple of in form players around them. 6 changes to a team in competition shows how unprepared we are. He calls it a deep squad of players...... I call it a lack of planning and fear to drop players he thinks we expect to see. Get rid...... Regardless of how well we do or don't..... Hodgson.......your time is limited..... But that's what you want eh???? Roy Hodgson Managerial career Halmstads BK Allsvenskan (2): 1976, 1979 Örebro SK Division 2 North (1): 1984 Malmö FF Allsvenskan (5): 1985, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1989 Svenska Cupen (2): 1985–86, 1988–89 Inter Milan UEFA Cup Runner-Up (1): 1997 Copenhagen Danish Superliga (1): 2000–01 Danish Super Cup (1): 2001 Fulham UEFA Europa League Runner-Up (1): 2010 Individual[edit] LMA Manager of the Year (1): 2010 Knight, First Class of the Order of the Lion of Finland: 2012[165] Switzerland[edit] Hodgson took over as manager of the Switzerland national team from Uli Stielike on 26 January 1992.[20] Stielike had been the first German coach to have a winning record,[20]winning 13 of the 25 games he was in charge of. As Hodgson was succeeding Stielike at the national level, Stielike took over the job Hodgson had just vacated at club level withSwiss Super League side Neuchâtel Xamax. Switzerland had not qualified for a major international tournament since the 1966 World Cup. Hodgson took the Schweizer Nati to the 1994 World Cup, losing only one game during qualification, from a group that included Italy and the more fancied Portugal and Scotland.[21] The Swiss took four points from Italy, who, managed by Arrigo Sacchi, went on to make it to the World Cup final and lose only on penalties. The Swiss won 1–0 at home and in the game in Italy, the Swiss were at one stage leading 2–0 before being pegged back to 2–2. The Swiss also took four points from Scotland, winning 3–1 at home and drawing 1–1 away. Against Portugal, they drew 1–1 at home and suffered their only defeat of the campaign, losing 1–0 in Porto. In the tournament the Swiss were drawn in Group A alongside Romania, Colombia and the hosts, United States. The opening match of the group was between Switzerland and the United States and is memorable as the first World Cup match to take place indoors, at the Pontiac Silverdome. The Swiss drew 1–1 against the United States, beat Romania 4–1 and lost 2–0 to Colombia, finishing as runners-up in their group, qualifying for the Round of 16, where they lost 3–0 to Spain.[21] The Swiss easily qualified for Euro 1996, again losing only one game during qualification. Finishing top of Group 3, the Swiss began well. They beat Sweden 4–2 at home with two late goals, beat Iceland 1–0 at home and won 2–1 away to Turkey before coming back from 2–0 down with fifteen minutes remaining to draw 2–2 away to Hungary and losing 2–1 at home to Turkey. This was followed up by a 2–0 win against Iceland, a 0–0 draw away at Sweden and a final 3–0 win at home to Hungary.[21] With their place at Euro 1996 assured, Hodgson left immediately after qualification, on 15 November 1995, to join Italian club Inter Milan.[21] He had in fact been doing both jobs from October of that year.[21][22] Without Hodgson, the Swiss had a difficult time at Euro 1996. In their opening match, they secured a 1–1 draw with England only after scoring a very late penalty. The Swiss went on to lose 2–0 to the Netherlands and 1–0 to Scotland. Switzerland finished bottom of their group with only one point from the three matches. At their peak while managed by Hodgson, Switzerland were rated the third best international side in the world, according to the FIFA World Rankings.[9] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deadredfred Posted June 22, 2016 Report Share Posted June 22, 2016 Im not worried about Portgual. They've been dire until today, and they're only pushing now because they have to. Leaving plenty of gaps at the back still. Whoever we play it'll be tougher. But as long as Roy doesn't play his reserves again, I'd hope we could give most teams a game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Red-Robbo Posted June 22, 2016 Report Share Posted June 22, 2016 Blige! What games! I was flicking between the two. So now we face another small nation who put lots of men behind the ball but tend to hit their opponents on the break. Er, banana skin alert....
