Crystal Palace have confirmed the appointment of Roy Hodgson as their new manager on a two-year deal.
The former England boss succeeds Frank de Boer who was dismissed just four games into the new Premier League season with Palace yet to pick up a point, or score a goal.
The 70-year-old, whose managerial career spans five decades and 15 clubs in eight countries, including leading four national teams, told the club's official website: "This is very much the club of my boyhood and I remember in my youth watching the club from the terraces at the Holmesdale Road end which gave me such fond memories.
"In those days I had dreams of playing for the team, then as a coach you think about coaching the team and a lot has happened in between times.
