People are sleeping on Hodgson. A short term contract till the end of the season to keep them up. That's not the worst thing in the world. In fact it's one of the better options available to them.

Hodgson is a really classy person too, reminds me a bit of Arsène personality wise. I'm glad he's back in the PL.

Gino Pozzo probably reasoned that way last season. But in the end Watford only won 2 games with Hodgson.

Viera's firing is one of the dumbest I've ever seen.

He's a good manager. He took over a 14th place team, had them in 12th last year and 10th at the mid-point of this season. They aren't better than that.

Then they had a really difficult stretch of the schedule and their scoring dried up :

Sp**s (4)
Chelsea (10)
United (3)
Newcastle (5)
United (3)
Brighton (7)
Brentford (8)
Liverpool (6)
Villa (11)
City (2)
Brighton (7)
Arsenal (1)

That's an absolutely murderous 12 games - underdog in every single one. Every team in the top half of the table plus Villa who have been flying under Emery. And the last 10 of those games before the firing were either draws or 1-goal losses. They had structure, they weren't playing badly, they just had a bad offensive spell against a really tough stretch in the schedule.

Now 8 of their last 10 games are against teams in the relegation battle. They were going to rebound. They would have been fine.

Instead they fire a competent manager and bring in a short-term dinosaur who has won 5 of his last 31 games in the league. I'll laugh so hard if they do get relegated now.
