Sven-Goran Eriksson is to be sacked as manager of Manchester City at the end of the season, it is being reported today.
Club owner, former Thai Prime Minister Thaksin Shinawatra, took the decision after watching City throw away a 2-0 lead to be beaten by relegation candidates Fulham at the weekend.
Eriksson took charge of City at the start of the season and a great start took them to third in the table in November.
The former-England boss also master-minded two wins over bitter rivals United. But City's form has faltered in the second half of the season and City have dropped out of contention for a European place.
The decision is said to have been met with shock and again from the players, and a similar reaction can be expected from fans who generally are pleased with the progress the club has made under the Swede.
