Tributes are being paid to former England manager Sven-Goran Eriksson after his death, at the age of 76, was announced on Monday.
The Swede had confirmed his diagnosis with cancer in January, saying at the time that he had 'at best' a year to live.
During that time he managed to live out an ambition to manage a Liverpool side at Anfield and was also the subject of a new documentary about his colourful life, which contained huge success at club level with the likes of Gothenburg, Benfica and Lazio before becoming the first non-British manager of the England team in 2001.
His time in charge saw qualification for three major tournaments and a quarter-final place at both the 2002 and 2006 World Cups and the 2004 European Championship, 67 matches in total and 40 wins.
The Football Association is planning a tribute ahead of England's Nations League game at home to Finland on September 10th.
The Finns were the first competitive opponents of the Eriksson era, beaten 2-1 at Anfield in March 2001 as the Swede began to pick up the pieces of what had been a disjointed World Cup qualification campaign up until then, leading to Kevin Keegan's resignation.
