Hodgson will not consider walking away from Liverpool

Liverpool boss Roy Hodgson will not consider walking away from his job after a difficult few days.

Hodgson has apologised to fans after accusing them of not supporting him.

And he insists he is the right man for the job: "I am confident given that time and the competencies I possess and the quality of players we have in the club - with the possibility of maybe adding to that in future transfer windows - this club will once again be up the top there.

"In the past there was a little bit more time and patience but that has diminished over the years.

"If you go back over a longer period there was more patience as people realised it took time to build a team and turn things around.

"Now we - those of us who are working and those who are supporting - want the change to come very quickly.

"I know with the right amount of time and patience and with a little bit of luck we will get back to where we should be.

"We are not there at the moment and we have to keep working towards it.

"Let's not make everything ridiculously 'doomy and gloomy' because we lost a game.

"We are not in a crisis situation but on Wednesday we let ourselves down very badly and we have to bounce back and give a totally different performance against Bolton."
