Sven: My Story
The book explores how Eriksson transformed teams with his strategic style, emphasizing fluid formations, adaptability, and an analytical approach that.
But this was incredibly dull, and he comes across as quite selfish, playing down stories rather than telling them.
The first half was marginally worse than the second, and after an interesting background on how Eriksson came into football, it then summarises each team's results as Eriksson gradually progresses up the football ladder.
I wasn't expecting a manual, but there is little insight into what Eriksson actually does as a manager - his entire career is written as though things happen to his team and he is just a passive observer. He rarely takes responsibility for his failures or successes, and I questioned what benefit I was getting from this book rather than glancing at his club's results for a relevant season - the occasional meeting with a president the only personal input.
