As Sweden Prepares For Euro 2008

February 23rd, 2008 | By: eddy | 1 Comment »

During Sweden’s last friendly against Turkey, coach Lars Lagerbäck tried some new players including FC Groningen striker Marcus Berg and Rasmus Lindgren, who recently joined AFC Ajax from Groningen play well. I think this is a very positive development because it was beginning to look as if we were running short of players to compete at the very top.
With most our veteran players nearing the end of their playing careers and others having hung up their boots, Sweden cannot be lacking behind the major European powers like Italy,Spain and the likes of them.
Sweden play Brazil on the 26th of march, i think we are likely to see a continuation of the current player testing by Lagerbäck.
Our other friendlies before the Euro are:
Sweden V Slovenia —-26th may
Sweden V Ukraine —-1st june
