Liverpool legend Ray Clemence has labeled talks of an instant dismissal for Roy Hodgson as "crazy".
The former Fulham coach, who took over from Rafael Benitez, has been under intense scrutiny following Sunday's embarrassing 2-1 defeat at home to Blackpool which leaves them in the relegation zone after seven games.
Despite critics calling for the blood of the 63-year-old, Clemence has urged for level heads at Anfield and that the club get behind their manager in these difficult times.
"No-one expected them to be where they are in the table, although everybody expected a transitional year.
"It's crazy to talk about getting rid of him - they've got an excellent manager who will get things right given time and patience.
"But his hands are tied and the thing is nothing can be sorted lower down until the top end of the club is sorted out.
"It's time to stay together and be patient, keep feet on the ground and make sensible decisions. I'm sure they will be able to climb again.
"The decision on the manager has been made and everyone should stick behind him."
