Sven wants trophies

Man City boss Sven-Goran Eriksson has outlined his intentions to stay at the club for the forseeable future. The Swedish coach also wants to win trophies in the English leagues and this would be the pinnacle of his managerial career.

"I'm not saying that I want a new contract, but of course I can see myself staying a long time," said Eriksson in The Sun. "I like it here very much - apart from the weather.

"I like it because it's a project. It's something that we all want to do well together in. I'm in the Premier League, I'm at a big club. I am very happy here.

"Will I need more than two years to bring success? That could happen, but we still have two years to go.

"Winning trophies in football is one of the best things you can do," added Eriksson. "If trophies come here it would be even better than to win with Benfica.

"It would give me great satisfaction because we know we are working with a club that hasn't won anything for a very long time.

"If you can win with a club like that it is worth more than at a club like Benfica, who are supposed to win trophies every year."
