Very sad.

Always struck me as a very decent person.

RIP

My earliest memories of watching the England team were with Sven as manager. I'll always remember him fondly

RIP I still think the Turkey qualifier in 2003 I think was one of the finest England performances I’ve seen, plus he have us the 5-1 and the victory against Croatia in 2004 which was another good performance

Sad news. England didn't succeed as we have done in recent tournaments under him, but in the desert of success between Sir Bobby's boys of Italia '90 and Gareth Southgate he was an oasis of good memories, especially that result in Munich.

His documentary is moving too and well worth a watch.

Sad news indeed. I remember he wasn't very happy at Portman Road when we beat his Leicester side in the snow. Game shouldn't really have gone ahead. I was there - a bizarre evening of football.

Sven was very much linked to Portman Road as he visited often to study the traing sessions of Bobby Robson's side as an aspiring coach.

His reply to the Sky interviewer after the game was classic.

When asked what he had learned from the game he said “I learned my players do not like playing in the snow”.

I always liked Sven. Aside from his managerial prowess, getting to boink Ulrika Jonsson & Nancy Dell'olio in their primes showed he was a man of many talents.

THIS IS DEMOC-RRRRRRR-ACY MANIFEST!

I'd completely forgotten he was their manager at the time!

Seemed a very decent man.

True story, though not really the appropriate time for it. A ref friend who was training at Carrington or wherever England were bases in the 00s, showered alongside Sven. Without specifying further, There is a good reason Sven was popular with ladies.

RIP Sven a football gentleman and a Sir Bobby Robson disciple , he loved Ipswich and learned a great deal from our Sir Bobby , I’m led to believe he wanted England to play at Portman Road and put forward the option to the FA during his England days ……and hey presto it happened .

I don't think he'd have minded you relating the story, he always came across as having a gsoh, but I'd add that gentlemanly conduct, wit and charm are also popular attributes with ladies!

There was a nice interview in the Swedish papers with Sven-Göran's father, drinking coffee outside the café in the village, as he does two or three times a week. He said it's going to be strange now, going to watch the local village team, Torsby, without Sven-Göran, as that's what they've been doing for the last few years. He's 95.
