West Brom boss Hodgson: No Hargreaves bitterness towards Man Utd

West Bromwich Albion boss Roy Hodgson says Owen Hargreaves bears no grudge against Manchester United over his release,

Hodgson is interested in signing the free agent.

"No, he was very sanguine about the whole affair, and I think he just wants to play football again," said the former Liverpool and Fulham manager.

"He was bitterly disappointed the way he had to leave English football, but he didn't speak badly about anybody.

"He was just more concerned, I think, to convince us, or maybe he's trying to convince other teams, that 'Listen, I'm a fit player, you can use me'."
