It's Sneaky Swede Sunday

He helpfully explains:
"It's the World Cup and, I suppose, as always, England have already won the World Cup before they have started it," said Eriksson. "The expectation is going to be huge. But I really think they can do a great World Cup, [get to the] semi-finals or the final. England has a good chance and I hope they reach the final and win it. They can do it, for sure.

"[...] The pressure is from a combination of the media and the public. On one hand it's ludicrous. But it's dangerous. I wished when I had the job that I could calm it down. Not a chance."
Nice job, Sven!
