Sven Eriksson Beat Quotations

If we keep this spirit and the quality it will be very difficult to beat us. We won the group, I am very happy for the team. They had one chance and they scored, but apart from that we have to be happy.

I expect a lot of long balls to James Quinn. They have a very busy midfield so I expect a difficult game. When we're talking about Wales, about Northern Ireland, it's a dream for those countries to beat England and we have to deal with that.

For Wales and Northern Ireland, it's a dream to beat England and we have to deal with that. It's like a derby and, remember Wales, it wasn't easy there.

It is a concern but you can't worry about that because we have to beat Croatia or draw with them to go through. As a manager I can't think about leaving Rooney out and hope we win the game. He has to play and hopefully he will be clever enough not to get a yellow card.

We have to try and win the ball early even the weather is a little bit against it. We have to be as motivated and concentrated as we were against France for 93 minutes if we want to beat Switzerland. It's not going to be easy at all, absolutely not.

The team is stronger and technically better and much more experienced. I have a confident team, much more confident than four years ago. They know they can beat any team.
