"Fifty goals today is in my opinion harder than 50 goals in the 1950s, Sixties and Seventies," Hodgson claimed. "In the past a fixture like England-Estonia or England-Lithuania or England-Latvia you would be talking five to 10 goals probably. The way these teams play now it's hard to get one. "Having said that Bobby Charlton is and always will be regarded, certainly if not the best, certainly one of the very best we have ever produced, because he didn't just score goals. He did many other things as well. And of course what Bobby Charlton has, which no other English player of the current generation has, is a World Cup winner's medal."
