Lovely touch from Jurgen. Absolute class.
Agreed then again I expect nothing less than that from him. Hopefully he takes up the offer.

Lovely news. I hope it gives Sven the kind of memory that will keep his heart warm in the days to come.
I’ve plenty links to the clubs playing and backroom staff as many on here know thank you very much. Fair enough, I admire your optimism. But you’re absolute ostriches if you think this squad, even with 2 or 3 new, “cut price” players with potential get us anywhere close

I think this is a great gesture by the club and also to see Jurgen welcome him with open arms.

It’s things like this that make me very happy and proud to support LFC.

I really hope and expect the fans to give him a fantastic reception and chant his name.

Best club in the world us.  :)

Did Eriksson profess his love for the club when he was a manager? Wonder Why we didn't we go for him after Rafa left?

Yeah, that's really appropriate given he nearly died on the pitch in 2021.

Any updates or news on this game?
It's taking place on Saturday, and there appears to be little to no news this week on things.
Normally you'd see some promotion, players arriving, the training photos, media events etc.
Perhaps today is too early, and things might ramp up tomorrow.
I sincerely hope  that Sven is feeling well enough to fulfil his wish if managing us. Perhaps it's lower key so as not to put any additional stress on him.

Yes to my knowledge he has always stated he supported Liverpool he might like his women or two but
Sven is a good guy imo.

When Rafa left we had the two twats arguing with each other and Hodgson was an easy one to bring in as apparently the likes of Carragher and maybe Gerrard were all for him - perhaps you can see why none of them two are in real management.

Sven was a good manager in the 80s and 90s but his career tanked after the England job.

Lovely picture on the club's Facebook page of Sven meeting Jurgen.  :)

Only really remember Sven as England manager, have just been looking at his club career on Wikipedia - winning a UEFA Cup with a Swedish club is some going! And a Cup Winners'Cup with Lazio, and runners-up in other European finals with Lazio and Benfica too.

Hope Sven has a great day.
