Liverpool have to cope with critics: Hodgson

Roy Hodgson (left) intends to ignore the critics as he focuses on turning Liverpool's poor start to the season around.

The Reds boss is under pressure with his team in the bottom three of the Premier League after nine games. Liverpool take on Bolton today.

The former Fulham manager said: "It is quite easy to kick people when they are down.

We are down at the moment so the kicks are going to rain down on us.

We just have to deal with it. "At the moment we are still in a poor position. We need to get a result in every game to get out of it."
