Noose tightens as proud Sven praises players
Eriksson was given a remarkable show of support by City fans during the defeat to Liverpool on Sunday but then admitted he did not expect it to make a difference come the end of the season.
“I don’t know whether the players felt they had a point to prove to the owner or anyone else in the game at Liverpool but what I would say is that myself, the coaching staff and everyone who works at the Carrington training ground are a close unit and it has always been like that and I’m very proud of them and what we have achieved,” the City boss said.
