Eriksson: Capello has better squad
Sven-Goran Eriksson is certain the squad Fabio Capello will take to the World Cup next summer will be stronger than the ones he had as England coach. [LNB] Although it is over three years since Eriksson vacated the England hot-seat, plenty of sceptics still argue the Swede wasted the supposed golden generation. Yet, as the Three Lions wrap up the most successful qualifying campaign in their history this week, Eriksson insists the squad Capello has at his disposal is better. [LNB] "It is stronger now. I am sure about that," he said. "They have a lot more mature players, who are at exactly the right age. A lot of the important players have already been to major tournaments. That is bound to help as well. I just hope they can be successful."[LNB] He added: "The players are there and the manager is good."[LNB] "Everything is in place for them to do extremely well next summer. [LNB] "It is still a long way off, which is one of the problems, but I am sure England are capable of going very close."
