Get this, the rumor mill is flooding with news that former England head coach Sven-Goran Eriksson is set to replace Alan Pardew at West Ham United.

This is an outrage! and i’m not even a HAMMERS fans, i really really do not want to see someone like Sven-Goran in the Premiership, i’d rather watch paint dry.

It all began when Eriksson was spotted in Israel having dinner with Eli Papouchado, the Israeli property tycoon helping back Kia Joorabchian’s prospective takeover of West Ham, but as usual his agents are denying the whole thing:

“I would say that he’s very close to being back in football, certainly from January 1.

“There are a couple of possibilities that I think will ‘crystallise’ at the beginning of the year. But it’s highly unlikely that it will be in the UK.

“I saw the headline ‘Sven for West Ham’ and I found it highly laughable. How can a reporter say he had a secret meeting in a well-known restaurant in Tel Aviv with Eli Papoushado and Pini Zahavi? You don’t have secret meetings in public restaurants.

I sincerely hope that this time around the agent is telling the truth, because Eriksson is just a bore to watch, his tactics are messed up and England could have done a lot better had they replaced him before the World Cup.

Fingers crossed.
