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

SUBSCRIBE to Coaches' Voice: bit.ly/2UCwkxX
In this compilation of his CV Stories, Sven-Göran Eriksson talks exclusively about his long and successful career in management.
From retiring as a player at the age of 26, and enjoying early success as a coach with IFK Göteborg, the former England boss went on to make Benfica the dominant force in Portuguese football. A number of spells in Italy and Serie A followed, with Roma, Fiorentina and Sampdoria, before he led Lazio to an historic league-and-cup double with a team he describes as the best he ever coached.
In this fascinating and exclusive interview with The Coaches’ Voice, Eriksson relives the defining moments, matches and relationships from a period that culminated with him accepting one of the toughest jobs in football - that as head coach of the England national team.

[@TheFreshestLyrics]

Sven seems like a nice guy.

[@ondrejherceg90]

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

[@you3Gio]

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.

[@giovannisipala7712]

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...

[@tiagofigueiredo1992]

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

[@wngmv]

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

[@robbiepeterh]

Sven is a true gentleman.

[@redman6790]

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.

[@PrinceOfCats5]

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

[@GodOfVictory501]

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

[@wizardsmonsterspiratesdemo5400]

I remember. England has had no better manager since Sven. I'd take him now over Southgate.

[@etubeeducation7882]

Sven-Göran Eriksson was a fantastic master

[@grantkassan6561]

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

[@milanstankovic385]

What a gentleman!

[@coachtechnique]

He is he reason I wanted to coach

[@SirStamford27]

Underrated England manager. Look at the stats.

[@Cestus1]

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

[@heldercardoso8552]

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

[@julius3428]

yeah, his last sentence of the video is that he would never expected Sergio Conceicao to be a coach.

[@monder96]

Thank you ,this channel ❤️

[@ashokraojain6765]

Nice

[@peterstephentrinh257]

He is definition of Swedish cool

[@TheRema33]

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.

[@TheCoachesVoice]

Yes we will, thanks for watching and stay tuned!

[@hugoleesong]

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.

[@zeinabadine7746]

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️🤗🤗🤗🤗🌹🌹🌹🌹

[@theguy8275]

Imagine if he went to Blackburn in 97’ almost happened

[@franca9121]

Vem pro Corinthians!!!!

[@SMSCOOBY71]

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.

[@VincentA-sw6ez]

Why that legendary Lazio team had not too many Italian players. Only Nesta and Mancini as Italian key players
