Roy Hodgson

Roy Hodgson’s managerial career began in 1976 in Sweden. He is renowned as a football journeyman world having managed clubs in England, Switzerland, Italy, Denmark, United Arab Emirates, Norway and Finland. His jobs have included time as national coach of Switzerland Finland and United Arab Emirates. Hodgson is currently manager of Fulham where he staged a miraculous recovery when he took charge of them at the beginning of 2008 when they were 19th in the Premier League. He led them out of the relegation zone, avoiding the drop on goal difference with a win on the final day against Portsmouth. Since then he has consolidated the club’s position and brought them European football in the Europa league following a 7th place finish.
