Thanks Gary
A great read. Didn't realise Mancini had played under him.
Nothing but good things to say about his time in the city and his sacking still disappointed him a few years afterwards.....

Roberto was his captain and I'm not sure if he started coaching under Sven.

I seem to remember Mancini being interviewed along these lines (a lot of paraphrasing mind);

Interviewer - 'What did Sven do for you as a player/ coach Roberto'?

Bobby Manc - 'Question should be, what did I do for Sven Goran Ericsson'

Or similar.........

Yes they did play YNWA. And yes David Beckham, who was a friend of Sven's attended and was welcomed by the family to walk with them.
Beckham showed his respect for his friend and former manager.

Beck Ham's only friend is the camera.

There are no depths that he won't sink to the get media coverage in support of his
unhealthy, undeserved honour.

As for his talentless, vacuous and gormless money pit of a wife.........!!

We will have to agree to disagree.

Never been lonely and doubt I ever will be.
