    Former England coach Sven-Goran Eriksson has been confirmed as Manchester City manager.

    The 59-year-old has signed a three-year deal worth a reported £9m - and is set to be given a £50m transfer kitty.

    The appointment was triggered by former Thai prime minister Thaksin Shinawatra's acquisition of more than 75% of City shares.

    "I'm delighted and honoured to be City manager. It's an exciting challenge," the Swede told the club website.

    Sven might end up being made look half-decent by that 50 million transfer kitty.

    So the inevitable has happened and City will most likely be again made the laughing stock of English football.

    Despite having no squad, a dodgy owner and a media whore of a manager I hope we can make a go of it and avoid relegation.

    Typically we're being linked with every player under the sun including Wilhelmsen, Vieri, Quaresma, Yakubu, Owen, Elmander and Santa Cruz. Will we get any of them? Probably not.
