It might happen, but I don't think so.

All the reports are saying that the Benfica chief was seen leaving the Radisson where, apparently, Sven has been staying since he started with us. Now, I might be wrong, but hasn't Sven been staying at the Lowry hotel?

I thought that but apparently svennis has been at the radisson of late. Though there is more than 1, and I have also stayed there recently.

Manchester City boss Sven Goran Eriksson has confirmed that he met with Benfica on Wednesday.

The Portuguese giants are desperate to persuade Eriksson back to the Stadium of Light - where he has already enjoyed two very successful stints, winning three league titles, one cup and reaching two European finals.

Benfica are staying tight lipped on the current talks - although their delegation, including president Luis Filipe Vieira and captain Manuel Rui Costa, were pictured by the English media in Manchester on Wednesday.

Eriksson is open to Benfica's approach after City owner Thaksin Shinawatra informed him he would be fired at the end of the season after a disappointing second-half to this year's campaign.

City's fans have reacted furiously but Shinawatra seems determined to carry through with his plans which include appointing Portugal's Brazilian coach Luiz Felipe Scolari as his new coach.

With that Eriksson is now attracting interest from all over the world and Benfica have been quick to open talks with the Swede.

Eriksson confirmed that a meeting took place, telling the Daily Mail: "I've had a meeting with the Benfica people.

"I'm considering an offer and it will be a step forward in my career. Let's see what happens."

Portuguese sources have revealed that Benfica have indeed made him a three-year offer to take charge with a salary of 200,000 euros per-month.

Benfica, who have set Eriksson a two-week deadline to take or leave their offer, have also told him they want Carlos Mozer to be used as his assistant.

I almost hope that he does join Benfica - that'll fuck frank's plans up good aand proper when scolari and mourinho tell him to do one
