Eriksson tightlipped on Man City future in Thailand

Sven-Goran Eriksson refused to comment on when he will next meet Manchester City owner Thaksin Shinawatra after arriving in Thailand.

The City manager landed at Bangkok's Suvarnabhumi airport at 1810 local time on Wednesday for the first leg of the club's post-season promotional tour to the Far East, which is set to be overshadowed by speculation over his position.

When asked if he would be meeting with Thaksin, Eriksson said: "No comment."

The former England manager was then promptly ushered away into a waiting car.

Thaksin, the former Thai Prime Minister, is reportedly dissatisfied with City's form in the second half of the season which culminated in an 8-1 humiliation at Middlesbrough on Sunday and a ninth-placed finish in the Premier League.
