Preparing for the Norway job in 2026 I guess. Decent stepping stone.
Great news! It's good to have an inside man. When we want to pretend that Lindelof is injured in order skip international breaks, Ole will be our bro and play dumb!
Aren't Sweden better than Norway still? I guess if Lindelof is their captain it's not their greatest generation but Norway don't have any defenders at all do they?
Meh, he's more than good enough for club football.
That is wild. Hope Ole does well with them, obviously.
Happy for him if this pans out. Is there any strong sporting rivalry between the Nordic national teams, by any chance?
Not particularly, I'd say. There's more of a good natured and humorous rivalry imo.
Hard pass.
The Swedish recruitment process for a new manager has been a bit of a circus and the people in charge have been accused of incompetence.
All the top targets have turned down the job and it looks like they look at the bottom of the barrel now with the likes of Ole.
Our last manager was the worst manager we've ever had and I'd still have him over Ole.
Good player, but just not a manager.

Didn't a game get abandoned because fan ran on and attacked the ref, think Sweden were playing another nordic country anyway?
Not a great Swedish generation by any means but Kuluveski-Isak-Elanga is young and good enough and fits into his counter attack style.
Ole sitter vid ratten
First conference : "Shoot!"
Yeah vs Denmark.
Oh no, bottom of the barrel was where we very nearly ended up with fecking Olof Mellberg.
You're right, I don't think that's representative of the rivalry in general though. That said, I could be very wrong since I don't really care about Noggie football!
not really. despite not being one, i think i speak for all scandies here; they all agree that scandinavia is basically just denmark, and the other nations see themselves as vassal states to copenhagen. its kind of like ole’s going to run a pub in another village, the profits of which are sent to denmark any way.

I reckon he's got a world cup in him.
he won’t get away with it. pickles the dog will sniff it out.
What are they thinking abbaout? What's the ikea behind this? Do they think he can assemble a good team?
will he just turnip to training to provide good vibes?
Would Carrick and McKenna join him? After all they learned everything they know from him, but he might not have had the time to teach them everything he knew
He is probably more suited to this than club football. The level and competition is not as high either
Yep. Sweden are shite too so it suits his level.
They aren't. We beat them home and away recently. Our clubs regularly trash theirs in Europe. They are busted flush.
Their 51 % rule means the fans vote against anything modern. Not getting with the times means you get left behind. Money goes elsewhere. The pros are that their domestic league is evenly balanced and competitive every year plus the supporter culture is great. But outside of their borders their football won't be relevant again anytime soon.

As long as it's better than the uncompetitive shite served up in the Bundesliga then good luck to them! Hopefully Ole will enjoy his time there even if they suck.
Why Sweden and not his native Denmark?
He's Finnish!
This will be the one he finally takes after batting away Madrid and Milan over the last few years, as his fans have told us.
“Bottom of the barrel” for the Swedish FA is the one that will finally coax him back!

He's not finished, he's only (add age here)
Dumb Swedes... Dolph Lundgren is right there and you're just gonna straight up ignore him?

Trying to find the white text...
This was pure Ole ball - imagine this now, people would be creaming themselves

Seems ages since we clicked like that
i’m my only competition in those stakes.Post of the year
Well, so far at any rate.
I cried a little watching that video!
Pass [forward!], move, pass, move, SCORE! All at mind-blowing high speeds
Now, we seem to mostly pass sideways or back (whyyyy) and move at nauseatingly slow speeds, and of course most of our forwards can't find the back of the net to save their lives!
What the feck happened to us?
I think he is very good manager. He was just thrown under the bus by players. If he gets the job he will not be any miracle man. Sweden lacks players apart from 4-5 that can perform on high level. Top targets turning down? The only one who did that was Mellberg. No bigger names already having job are ever going to take a job where there is less money considering what they get in other teams.
Recruitment have been circus and those in charge being incompetent wouldn't surprise me. If I'm not wrong it is former Prime Minister that is head of their FA now.
51% rule is blessing for supporters. Money or not. I wish we had that in Premier League. While the league isn't top quality their fans are one of best in Europe and can create great atmosphere. At least bigger teams. If you been at games you would see passion, songs, tifos and all that. Real football culture. Sure there is element of less good behaviour but that can be found everywhere.
The Ole criticism compared to other managers has never made a massive amount of sense.
The original appointment was a weird one but he finished 2nd and 3rd with the spine of this squad and to be honest some of the football we played in spells was the best we've seen since Fergie. I'd snap your hand off for anything even close to that this season.
He definitely knows how to set a team up to play on the counter anyway, which will suit a Sweden side with Elanga and Isak.
