C+P BBC

Sven-Goran Eriksson has been told he will be sacked as Manchester City manager at the end of the season, BBC Sport understands.

City owner Thaksin Shinawatra told Eriksson he was "not the right man for the job" at a meeting on Sunday, a source close to the Swede said.

Eriksson informed the players at training on Monday that he would be dismissed, provoking an angry response.

Shinawatra has been unhappy with City's results since the turn of the year.

How much has he improved City this year??? Players like Petrov and Elano are absolute gems. Does that Thai cunt expect them to win the league after one season? At least he's got ambition I suppose but fuck me.

Their chairman is a muppet. If he'd given Sven a chance he could have really kept things going well at Man City. There's rumors that Phil Scolari will be taking over next season, Scolari is a good manager, but this just seems like a stupid decision to me.

If I were you guys I would be happy to get Sven as manager.

Are you related to Thaksin, Beexie? Getting rid of the manager so soon.

No way do we want Sven. Do you people not remember what he did with England - nothing. And Not entertaining nothing at that.

Curbs in.

Dav,
Yep, agreed, pants for England but go here : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sven-G%C3% ... al_honours
and look at his club managerial honours.
Plus, the football played at club level under Sven WAS exciting.

We all know what he did with England, but He does have a decent club record mind you, and I honestly think if he'd been given more time at Man city, they would be pushing into the top 5.

I think this is a really stupid move. City are in the top half of the table, and Sven's only had a year.

Oh well, it's their loss really

Don't really care whether he stays or goes, but I fucken wouldn't want him at my club. Can't stand the man.

You can have him Scotty.

As much as I don't like Keane, he is doing alright at the moment. I'm happy to see him stay for a while yet.

I reckon Sven might end up in Spain.
