Liverpool legend Ray Clemence can't believe people are questioning whether manager Roy Hodgson is up to the job.
Clemence believes the situation will not change significantly until the Tom Hicks-George Gillett ownership position is sorted out.
The former England keeper said: "I can't believe after two to three months that people are questioning the man (Hodgson).
"He has managed and coached at the highest level. He got Switzerland to over achieve with his organisation and tactical knowledge.
"He has coached in different places in Europe. He made Fulham into an excellent side, took them to a situation they've never been in their history.
"Why wouldn't he be the person to be given the opportunity at Liverpool? But he is in a situation which is not ideal by a long stretch of the imagination at the moment."
