Roy Hodgson (born 9 August 1947) is an English former footballer and now football manager, who is currently the manager of Liverpool F.C. Hodgson is probably best known for guiding the Swiss national team to the last 16 of the 1994 World Cup and qualification for Euro 1996; Switzerland had not qualified for a major tournament since the 1960s. He has also coached many notable club sides, including Malmö FF, Internazionale, Blackburn Rovers, Udinese and most recently, at Fulham, where he guided them from relegation battlers to Europa League finalists within 3 years. He was appointed to his current role at Liverpool on 1 July 2010.
Hodgson has served several times as a member of UEFA's technical study group at the European Championships, and he was also a member of the FIFA technical study group at the 2006 World Cup. Hodgson has also worked as a television pundit in several of the countries in which he has coached and speaks five languages.
Hodgson was born in Croydon and educated at John Ruskin Grammar School. He was a moderately successful youth player with Crystal Palace but was never able to break into the first team. This was followed by several years in non-League football with Tonbridge, Gravesend & Northfleet, Maidstone United, where he also served as assistant manager, and Carshalton Athletic. He briefly worked as a PE teacher from 1972–73 at Alleyn's School in south-west London and later at Hillview High School in Pretoria, South Africa.
