Svennis in a great interview on the World Cup, Sweden, England and Neymar

GELENDZJIK.

Then we must talk to Sven-Göran Eriksson

– As a team, Sweden is world champion, says Svennis.

Here he also praises Janne Andersson, even Neymar, who remains firm. press on Brazil and send a salute to the national team

Sven-Göran Eriksson responds but asks the sports magazine to come back once and twice.

Only in the third essay he has a few minutes left to speak … yes,

– Guuud so, I never think I've been so popular all my life, he said on the phone from home the mansion outside Sunne

– Now it's a Norwegian patrol from here and it'll be a news soon. The BBC arrives and SVT arrives.

How does it feel like this?

– I can live this before, laughing 70 years who still hopes for a new coaching job.

Do you see? a lot at the World Cup?

– I will not say that I have seen every game, but almost.

Do you want to go to Russia and watch any match?

– A foreign television company wants me to come to the match on Saturday. But go for a game … I do not know. I am hesitant. I sit very well on the couch here with a big television in front of me

"Draw after 90 minutes"

Eriksson was the English Federation 2001-06 and was in the quarterfinals in three championships in a row : World Cup 2002, EM 2004 and World Cup 2006. On the last two occasions it was on penalties.

How does such a match like Saturday look like you?

– I am Swedish so there is no problem with that. I know who I am doing

How do you think they're going?

– I think Sweden has a good chance. But it will be a very tight match. England makes her goals permanent and Sweden is also good to fast. It's going to do something special.

– You can not say that one or the other of the two teams has a lot of chances to score in open play. It will be deficient and some details determine, as for Sweden yesterday, or a solid situation for England. It's 50/50 who wins. I say a draw after 90 minutes and then we'll see how many people have cramps in their respective teams (laughs).

Do you think that goes also to punishment?

– Yes, that would be possible.

Tired of Neymar

19659017] What did you impress in Sweden?

– This is the morale of the team and the effort of the team. If you remove a player, then it's the captain (Andreas Granqvist) in this case as a leader. They do not have Neymar, Ronaldo or Messi. Although Forsberg is good, it's a little bit there.

– Sweden does not have the best players in the world but as the teams are world champions

What do you think of England up here? – England is like England. Now, they think that they will win the World Cup again. If you look scratchy, they hit Tunisia and Panama. It's a little more done to win the World Cup. But England has a good team. Defensive, they are pretty stable and they have Kane who can decide on a match. They have speed at Vardy, who is not the most technical player, and at Sterling, who can do it for any team. They have players with speed and imagination. Rashford is a gear kit. They are very good at odds but they will not have as many chances against Sweden.

Who do you think the World Cup wins?

– There is only one team that fails if it does not win the World Cup and that is Brazil. It's a pity they're not winning the World Cup with respect to the global players that they have. They have guns everywhere, and they have Neymar who, if he's not crying too much or throwing too much, is an evil football player.

Are you tired of its fairs?

– Yes, it is a pity. He has all the qualities to be a Ronaldo, Messi or Maradona. He has everything. He is as good as them. But his attitude is sad sometimes, unfortunately. It's a pity for him because it would be even bigger than it is in all eyes of football fans.

So Brazil is your tip for gold?

– Since the beginning of the World Cup. There were many who also said Germany and Spain, but they are now on the beach

"You are historic"

Can Sweden win the World Cup?

It becomes Croatia or Russia and it is affordable. It will be a good day. But if they meet Brazil in the final, I think it will be too difficult. They have too many people who can plant a Swedish defense individually. But let's try to beat England first

What do you say about how Janne Andersson leads the team?

– What he did is unbelievable. Take off your hat, bow down and congratulate him. You can not do it better. Qualification and playoffs.

– We do not have the best players in the world, but as a team we are world class and it depends on Janne. ] – I do not know him. What I know, I have never met

Finally, do you have any greetings for Janne and the national team?

– I can only congratulate you. Whatever happens in the quarterfinals, you are historic. Continue as you have done so far, everything is possible
