Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson believes he was doomed from the start as Liverpool manager.
In 2010, the Reds were in disarray after finishing seventh and parting company with Rafa Benitez. Champions League qualification had been the norm but discontent had grown over the Spaniard’s defensive tactics.
A successful spell at Fulham - where he helped them reach the Europa League final - saw Hodgson named as Benitez’s replacement. However, his time at Anfield lasted just six months, with Liverpool sitting 13th in the Premier League after a 3-1 defeat to Blackburn Rovers.
