Switzerland (1992-1995)

Hodgson took his first international post after impressing in the country's domestic competition with Neuchatel Xamax. At their peak, FIFA ranked Hodgson's Switzerland number three in the world.

United Arab Emirates (2002-2004)

Hodgson returned to the global stage at the unlikely outpost of the UAE, where he took over responsibility for both the national and Olympic sides.

He remained for 20 months, taking the side to one tournament - finishing fifth in the Gulf Cup.

Finland (2006-2007)

He won just six of his matches in charge of the side, but all of those victories came in competitive fixtures.
