Kilworthfox Posted 25 October 2011 Posted 25 October 2011 The LMA has issued the following statement on behalf of Sven-Göran Eriksson following his departure from Leicester City Football Club. Link Sven-Göran Eriksson said, “I am disappointed to be leaving Leicester City Football Club. It was always my aim to lead the club into the Barclays Premier League and I am very sorry that I won’t be able to do that. “I have always thought, and still believe now, that the club will be promoted this season. The current squad is capable and ready to achieve promotion, but football is a results industry and unfortunately we couldn’t quite get things right enough of the time. “Being the manager of Leicester City was an absolute pleasure and I wish everyone connected with the club the best of luck. Leicester City is a great club and I am certain that with the current owners in charge the club will go from strength to strength. “To the players; old, new, everyone in the squad, I would like to say thank you. You are a talented group and I am hopeful that you will achieve success very soon. “To the staff at the club; both at the stadium and the training ground – you treated me like a king and I shall miss working with you all. “Last but not least, to the fans; I want to say a huge thank you for your support. You are fantastic people and I will never forget the way you welcomed me in to your club. I am just sorry that I won’t be on the bench the day you reach the Premier League.”

Top man, his attitude is something other managers should aspire to.

Trav Le Bleu Posted 25 October 2011 Posted 25 October 2011 Can't really add anything to the previous comments - he was always gracious in defeat and continues to be so.
ScouseFox Posted 25 October 2011 Posted 25 October 2011 Genuine guy. Big respect for him, all the best for the future, gutted it didn't work out.
Corky Posted 25 October 2011 Posted 25 October 2011 you treated me like a king You went missing for long periods and got away with it? Best of luck Sven, shame it didn't work out.
Tommeh Posted 25 October 2011 Posted 25 October 2011 That is fantastic, great words from a lovely man I met him a few times through work and he was such a true gent. Still very upset it hasn't worked out for him.
Simo86 Posted 25 October 2011 Posted 25 October 2011 Top bloke, I hope he does well at his next point of call, wherever that may be!
Ricey Posted 25 October 2011 Posted 25 October 2011 Say what you like about him as a manger, but as a person he oozes class and dignity. It didn't work out, but should he ever return to the King Power with another team, he'll get a warm reception I'm sure. Adjö Svennis
Finnegan Posted 25 October 2011 Posted 25 October 2011 :sge: What a legend. I hope he does well and lands on his feet.
