Sven-Goran Eriksson's Book Released Posthumously

Sven-Goran Eriksson, the former England football manager who passed away last month, criticized ex-FA chief executive Mark Palios and communications director Colin Gibson in his posthumous book 'A Wonderful Journey'. Eriksson expressed his disdain for Boris Johnson, whom he described as an 'idiot' during their introduction, noting Johnson's lack of football knowledge. The book reveals Eriksson's turbulent love life, including affairs with Ulrika Jonsson and Faria Alam, which led to significant media attention and controversy during his tenure from 2001 to 2006. He recounted a heated conversation with Gibson, where he felt he was being used to protect Palios after news of Alam's affair with him surfaced. Despite the scandal, Eriksson maintained he did nothing wrong and lamented the personal pain caused by the media frenzy surrounding his private life.
