Fulham defender John Pantsil believes boss Roy Hodgson should be named Manager of the Year. "He deserves it, because he has done well," the Ghana international told Sky Sports News when asked if Hodgson should be named Manager of the Year.

"Last season the team was going to be relegated and he helped us survive.

"This season, God willing, he'll probably take the team into Europe. It's like he's our father of the team and everyone loves him."
