Sven-Goran Eriksson Welcome To The Ivory Coast
High Hopes And Faint Fears Welcome Sven-Goran Eriksson To Ivory Coast
Who is the new Ivory Coast coach and what new things can he offer?
Ivory Coast’s FA yesterday put an end to weeks of fears and speculation about the potential coach for the Elephants as the clock ticks on to South Africa 2010.
Given myself a day to think about this. I should be happy Sven Goran Eriksson got the Ivory Coast job. Anyone but Guus Hiddink would of made me happy. Everything suggests I should like this appointment but I still feel weird about it. Eriksson wasn’t about to adapt to the Mexican football culture, it isn’t far fetch to suggest his style will clash with these Ivory Coast players. Sven also has a great history losing against Portugal in both Euro 2004 and World Cup 2006. I just hope it isn’t 3rd time lucky for Sven this summer.
