Crystal Palace manager Roy Hodgson has offered his advice to England boss Gareth Southgate.

After spending four years in charge of the Three Lions, Hodgson left the post following England's exit from Euro2016 at the hands of Iceland.

"There are two distinct areas in a football environment; the upstairs boardroom, VIP area where people go to watch the game, and the bench and manager's office and press rooms that we get taken to," he said.

"My life is the pitch, the manager's office and the press, that's my life on a matchday.

"But I never as national team manager used to go down and speak to managers in their office after a game, I always thought this was a time for them and they don't necessarily want me in there discussing my thoughts and my business.

"And I would guess Gareth [Southgate] does the same. He knows that anything he wants in terms of information, I will be more than happy to speak to him, but I don't think he should feel obliged to do that."
