Advantages: cool bloke in charge

Disadvantages: has he heard of Marstons Pedigree though?

I managed to catch up with the England manager earlier today for an exclusive interview. Read what he had to say here...

Sups: "Well Sven quite a successful start eh, to your career as England manager, were you expecting it to be such plain sailing so far?"

Sven: "Well, of course. Not. Nothing is guaranteed in foootbaal. Although I am pleased. For sure."

Sups: "You must be well happy how Becks has settled in as captain too - he looks the part to me."

Sven: "He is an international player. No doubt. I like him too. Because he knows about my thinking, my views on how the game of foootbaal should be paid, er I mean played".

Sups: "But on the other hand Nicky Butt looks garbage, agreed?"

Sven: "For sure. That is true."

Sups: "What's the pressure been like on you then as the new England manager so far?"

Sven: "Not at all. No Pressure. It is an honour to manage. The England team. My dream. I could easily have moved to another Italien side and earned alot of money but choose England. It is true."

Sups: "And have you and your Missus settled into England ok then"

Sven: "Yes we have just purchased some property. How do you say? Bedfordshire. It was a good price. Although my missus really prefers the yatch at Monaco at the moment. The weather, you know"

Sups: "So you going over there now for a break then?"

Sven: "Phew. Well yes it will be nice to relax for a while. For sure. I have seen alot of foootbaal since I have become England Manager".

Sups: Yes we know, there's more interest at Premiership matches in the competition to be the first to 'Spot Sven', rather than the race for the title, do you not think?"

Sven: Well I am honoured. Certainly. But really I felt that I had to take in as many matches as I could. You
see I really didn't have the first clue about the game in England before I took the job."

Sups: "I see - so you mean you actually lied at the interview?"

Sven; "No for sure. Not. They never asked me."

Sups: "Well just going back to football for a bit Sven, which team do you support?"

Sven: "Well, coming from Svweden, it should be Maaalmo, or Gotenborg, for sure. But really I am a Leeds fan. It is true."

Sups: Yep. Thought so. Is that why you have stuck Rio straight into the side?"

Sven: "He is an international standard player certainly, although nothing is certain in fooootbaaal. Certainly though he was at fault for all our goals conceeded so far. But I will stick with him. He is young. He will learn. Certainly."

Sups: "Well thanks Sven, for your time. I'll let you catch your own plane now, so you can catch up with your missus."

Sven: "It is a pleasure. For sure. Thank you"
