Roy Hodgson has joked that Sir Alex Ferguson would think he is a fool for returning to management at 75.
Hodgson re-joined Crystal Palace during the international break following the sacking of Patrick Vieira - the man who replaced him in 2021 - after a run of form that sees them winless this year and being pulled into a relegation battle.
In returning to the dugout, the former England boss will break his own record as the oldest manager to take charge of a Premier League team. He will be 75 years and 235 days old when his side face Leicester City in a huge clash on Saturday.
