Eriksson Good Enough For Real – Gravesen

(Goal.com) - Real Madrid midfielder Thomas Gravesen believes that England coach Sven-Goran Eriksson is capable of taking over at the Bernabeu.

The Swede will step down after the World Cup and is one of the names on Real’s shortlist of coaches to take over from Juan Ramon Lopez Caro.

"I think Eriksson's reputation is strong enough," Gravesen told BBC Sport.

"You have proven your worth when you have managed a club like Lazio in Italy and then you become England manager."

He added: "With jobs like Eriksson has had you have shown you have the skills to lead the team.

"But it will be a big test for him in the summer with England - there will be a lot of pressure and there will be a lot of eyes on him and that will give something of a pointer about him."
