Eriksson trusts Allardyce for the England job

With confirmation still pending, it seems that Sunderland manager Sam Allardyce is the one who will take on the England manager role and will take the Three Lions to the World Cup qualifiers. There are many football personalities who believe this is the perfect choice for the FA to make, because Big Sam is a vastly experienced manager who has the capacity to bring out the best in players. 

On former England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson, completely approves of Big Sam's arrival to the job. He told Sky Sports that: "Sam has been there for a long, long time and he's done a good job wherever he's been. He's very organized, so that will be a very organized team I suppose. So why not? Good luck, Sam."

"If you take a team from the lower part of the table, you have to adapt what you want to do. You have to defend and be organized or you will go down. So I think it depends on the situation, whether you have a top team, a middle team or a bottom team. Many times Sam has managed a team that has been struggling for survival and he has done the job. I don't think Sam needs any advice. I know that for many years he has wanted that job. He knows the English press well and that is the least pleasant part of the job. But he will do a good job. I hope so. I'm sure he will."
