Eriksson says England are Euros favourites; talks up Klopp

Former England coach Sven Goran Eriksson says the Three Lions are Euros favourites.

The Swede sees England and France as the two teams to beat this summer in Germany.

Former Manchester City boss Eriksson said: "It's (England) my favourite with France, who I see as very strong. I also like Spain and Germany, who has the advantage of playing at home. And I hope they go a long way, I will cheer for you. I honestly don't think they can win.

"What if there is a new Eriksson on the bench? There are many good coaches. I exchanged a few words with Jurgen Klopp when I went to Liverpool. I have always admired him for how he behaves on the pitch and for what he says to the microphones. He has a very strong image. And behind it you can clearly see a special person."
