“The people at Bournemouth – I’d be very surprised if they didn’t understand, ‘We’re lucky here, we’ve found ourselves a manager and a coaching staff that has brought us to where we are and done a fantastic job in keeping us there’,” said Hodgson.
“I’d be surprised if they were thinking, ‘Let’s jump ship from these guys because we’ve lost a couple of games’. “The short-termism around modern managers is something I can’t possibly fathom. “This is the way social media and the media and the fans operate and I should come to terms with it but I don’t understand it at all.”
