(BBC News) 鶴臣成為富咸新領隊
水深火熱嘅富咸宣佈委任前芬蘭國家隊教頭鶴臣為新領隊, 並簽下一紙長約. 現年 60 歲嘅鶴臣曾執教過多支英國以外嘅球會同國家隊, 球會包括有瑞士草蜢, 納沙泰爾, 意甲國際米蘭, 烏甸尼斯, 英超布力般等等, 可謂經驗豐富. 不過佢教國家隊嘅成績就比較好, 最叻就係帶當時仲係已有幾十年無緣出席國際大賽既瑞士國家隊晉身 94 世界盃同 96 歐國盃決賽周. 之前帶緊歐洲二, 三線實力嘅芬蘭國家隊, 表現不俗, 只係晌歐國盃外圍賽 A 組差葡萄牙 3 分, 排第 3 未能出線.鶴臣於 12 月 30 日正式上任, 不過元旦日主場對車仔嘅英超聯賽先至係佢首場領軍既賽事. 且看呢位周遊列國既英籍教頭, 重返英格蘭球壇, 能否帶領富咸走出低谷了......

Fulham appoint Hodgson as manager
Fulham have announced the appointment of Roy Hodgson as their new manager on a "long-term" contract.
He will take over on 30 December, with caretaker boss Ray Lewington remaining in charge for Saturday's away game against Birmingham City.
Fulham sacked Lawrie Sanchez last week with the club in the Premier League's bottom three.
"I am determined that we will overcome the current position," Hodgson, 60, told the club's official website.
"I understand that it will be a challenge, but one that I will relish."
Fulham's new manager will be at their game at St. Andrews on Saturday before taking training with the Craven Cottage squad on Sunday.
His first game in charge will be the local derby at home against Chelsea on New Year's Day as he tries to arrest a dramatic slump in form for the Cottagers.
Fulham's last league win came on 3 November against Reading and they have since lost five of their seven top-flight games, including their 5-1 thrashing by Tottenham last time out.
"After long talks with the chairman and the board I am convinced that we can take the Club to a new level," said Hodgson.
He made an inauspicious start to his managerial career when he was sacked after a short stint with Bristol City.
But he led Malmo to five consecutive championships and two Swedish Cups and then guided the Swiss national team to the 1994 World Cup finals and Euro 96.
He went on to manage Inter Milan and Blackburn Rovers, among others, before taking over as Finland coach and narrowly missed out on taking them to Euro 2008.
Hodgson's stint in charge of Blackburn ended with him being sacked in November 1998 with the club bottom of the Premier League.
But he has a vast amount of experience and success across Europe and is the experienced boss Fulham wanted to guide them away from relegation.
Former Fulham midfielder John Collins, who recently resigned as Hibernian manager, had been linked with the post after resigning his job with Scottish Premier League Hibernian.
But it proved to be no more than speculation and Hodgson will be unveiled by Fulham at a news conference on Monday.
"It is my vision to combine the best of the fantastic traditions of the English Premier League with the flair and innate professionalism of the continental game, which I hope will return Fulham to its tradition of playing attractive passing football," said club chairman Mohamed Al Fayed.
"I believe that Roy has immense experience in all areas of football and can drive this club forward for the long term.
"My commitment to this club has never dwindled and I am more than ever determined that we have the right man to turn round our current predicament and build for a successful future."
ROY HODGSON'S CLUBS
Played for: Crystal Palace, Maidstone and Berea Park
Managed: Halmstad, Bristol City, Orebro, Malmo, Neuchatel Xamax, Switzerland, Inter Milan, Blackburn, Inter Milan, Grasshoppers, FC Copenhagen, Udinese, United Arab Emirates, Viking FK, Finland, Fulham
