Sven-Göran Eriksson • A life in football: Gothenburg to England, via Benfica and Lazio • CV Stories

The big takeaway from this is that Italian players are very selfish, mostly lazy and too full of their own hype.

That was ok when they had players with monumental natural talent, but not for the modern game as it progressed.

I'll never forget him asking the English public not to kill Rooney after he had his moment of madness against Portugal.

Very classy.

Was he unable to get the best out of Scholes, Gerrard, and Lampard? Yes.

Especially, Scholes.

But Sven strikes me as a man that wants to go through life seeing people do well.

Classy.

Underrated England manager. Look at the stats.

Imagine if he went to Blackburn in 97’ almost happened

Remember the good news in Swedish news papers about Sven-G and Lazio. Happy for him

He is he reason I wanted to coach

Sven got a lot of stick when he was England coach, but he was always a gentleman. And what a fabulous career he had.

Thank you ,this channel ❤️

Sergio Conceicao was also a Sven player and he's a excellent coach currently in FC Porto

Sven-Göran Eriksson was a fantastic master

What a gentleman!

He is definition of Swedish cool

If only he would have won that '90 European Champions Cup final against that Milan team... We would be a legend.

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🤗🤗🤗🤗🌹🌹🌹🌹

That Lazio was the best team of the world that time. Nedved,Veron,Simeone,Salas,Mihajovic,Nesta,Stankovic,Ravanelli,Mancini,Simone Inzaghi,Lombardo,Couto,Sensini,Boksic,Favalli,Pancaro,Negro,Sergio Conceicao,Marchegiani...in one team. And one year before they sold Vieri!!! WOW!!!!

I'm a Fiorentina supporter and i think that Eriksson has been a very good coach. I was expecting few more words about his time in Fiorentina (1987-1989). At that time Baggio was one of his player, so he could have mentioned him at least...

A real gentleman. He won and he lost. When he won, he never disrespected the opponent, and when he lost he congratulated and kept moving on. No wonder why he is loved everywhere he coached.

Vem pro Corinthians!!!!

Sven is a true gentleman.

This was another great video - I would love to see one done on Otto Rehhagel as well

Nice

Whoever runs this channel... Thank you, legend!

I remember that Lazio team. they were crazy. I had no idea Sven was the coach.

Will you put Masterclases from coaches voice esp, with subs? I saw there Karanka, guy from Rayo and many others, but they don't have english subs.

Sven's Lazio team was truly amazing! Reading the Zonal Marking book by Michael Cox and it gave me an insight into how tactically astute that 1999/00 Serie A winning team was.

Simeone in that Lazio jersey 😍 I had no idea he'd won a Scudetto

Sven seems like a nice guy.
