6 managers who didn't deserve the club they ended up at

Bob could not fix it!

#4. Roy Hodgson – Liverpool

Ad

Roy Hodgson is a manager who’s reputation has been tainted of late. He earned a brilliant reputation with Fulham helping them to a Europa League final. They went very close to winning it as well but lost to Atletico Madrid in Extra Time to a Diego Forlan winner.

Hodgson took Fulham from the brink of relegation to just 17th. Not too impressive but he managed to stabilize the club next season with a few smart signings. But when he was given the Liverpool job in 2010 several eyebrows were raised.

This would be his first ever high profile job in management. It was a huge risk that eventually did not pay off. Results were so poor under the Englishman that he lasted only 6 months in the job.

Kenny Dalglish was chosen as his successor and he went on to sign arguably their best player this decade – Luis Suarez. Hodgson led Englan to their worst ever defeat in International tournaments, a 2-1 loss against Iceland.
