such a very strange move by Liverpool, konchesky is average at best, whilst salcido is pretty good.

maybe Roy just wants more English players. I hope the rumours of mario gomez are true though.

Alot of Hodgson's Fulham team were British/English speaking, to name a few..

Konchesky
Schwarzer (Australian but obviously English is his home language)
Dempsey (same as Schwarzer)
Hughes
Baird
Davies
Zamora
Johnson
Duff
Murphy
Greening
Kelly
Smalling (before he moved obviously but Hodgson had him whilst he was there)

And probably a few more I've missed out.. Point is I think communication and shape is very important to Hodgson in his tactics, and having a team that all fluently speak the same language from birth is a big bonus in his eyes. Out of those players I've named from Fulham, you could have a starting eleven there easily, and I think he's trying to recreate that sort of thing at Liverpool.

Konchesky is a good player, Salcido is slightly better. We're probably getting the worse deal but Salcido doesn't speak English so he will take a while fitting into the Fulham side. Konchesky should fit straight into our side, but I just don't think he is good enough to be in Liverpool's first 11.

Hodgson is being a right hypocrite at the moment, signing Konchesky when there was an agreement in place that he will not be signing anyone from Fulham.

The Guardian are reporting in tomorrow's papers "Roy Hodgson has accused Rafael Benítez of reneging on an agreement not to sign Liverpool players after Dirk Kuyt's agent claimed the Holland international wants to leave for Internazionale."

Being a massive hypocrite.

This is what Hodgson said to SSN when he joined Liverpool, Hodgson stated, " I certainly don't want to go in and raid Fulham Football Club because that wouldn't be the correct thing to do."

He's certainly gone down in my estimations.
