Man City boss Eriksson plays down hotel living

Manchester City boss Sven Goran Eriksson insists he's happy at Eastlands.

Despite being in charge of City for eight months, Eriksson is still living in a Manchester city centre hotel, refusing to make the gesture of commitment by buying a house in the region.

But Eriksson, 60, claimed his decision not to buy a permanent base in the northwest in no way suggested he was not fully committed to City over the duration of his three-year deal.

"Where I live shouldn't be a problem for anyone," said Eriksson. "I signed a contract for three years and I'm committed."
