Man City boss Eriksson keen to see Isaksson in action

Manchester City boss Sven Goran Eriksson hopes fit-again Andreas Isaksson plays for Sweden tonight.

"I'm very happy that we have three very good goalkeepers all fit again," Eriksson said.

"We need him, of course we need him. Whether he comes into the team or not for the next game, I don't know, he hasn't played any games this season.

"It'll be interesting to see on Saturday if Sweden play him or not in their qualification game against Denmark. If he doesn't play there he might play on the Wednesday in their friendly against Montenegro."

With Kasper Schmeichel winning plaudits this season, Eriksson conceded he has a tough decision to make ahead of City's next game.

He told City's website: "In one way it makes life difficult for us, but that's good. I think he's been very, very good in all the games he's played so far."
