Sven & the squad focused on Sunday

09/05/2008 13:39

Sven-Goran Eriksson says that the players are fully focused on ending the season on a high at the Riverside.

Speaking at his weekly pre-match press briefing, the Manager declared that the media speculation around the club has not proved to be a distraction to the squad, and he's pleased with the way they are gearing up for Sunday.

"There’s been speculation for more than just this week," says Sven, "it has probably been no different than the week before. The boys have been working hard and we want to finish the season well with a good performance at Middlesbrough.

"It’s important that we focus on Sunday, we will take a lot of fans, as we have done all season, and I want to put on a good show for them at the end of the season. They were fantastic last weekend and I want us to reward them at Middlesbrough."

Looking at the season overall, Sven added: "I believe this has been a successful season, we bought a lot of new players before the start and I know we’ve not played perfectly at times, but we played well in many games.

"This is a new team, a young team, we are in the right part of the table and we could finish eighth so I'm pleased."
