England coach Hodgson admits Liverpool flop still hurts

England coach Roy Hodgson admits his flop at Liverpool still hurts.

He only had six months in charge at Anfield - at the time a club awash with internal political strife - but the scars remain.

Hodgson said: "Even now, I'm still sad about the situation at Anfield.

"I went to Liverpool, thinking it would be a long-term job and maybe it could take me to the end of my career if I spent a lot of time there."

Hodgson added: "It's strange how things work - it's now led to me being England manager, so maybe I don't have quite the same regrets.

"That said, nothing can dismiss the memory of what happened at Liverpool. It's important to remember the bad times, as well as the good times."
