Hodgson said: “I'm not certain (Marcelo) Bielsa, the guys at Sunderland, Jose Mourinho or Pep Guardiola, I don't know how much they actually welcomed it.

“I'm certain the decision to do the documentary wouldn't be a decision that would land on their table, it would be a decision made by the club.

“But if you want my honest opinion about would I have liked to have been a prominent figure and people seeing behind the scenes behaviour, I wouldn't have welcomed that. That's a purely selfish thing, of course. I prefer to do my work with a degree of privacy and not to make it all public."
