Sven-Goran Eriksson has become the latest high-profile figure to tear into the much-maligned European Super League, claiming the breakaway tournament will 'take away the dream of football'.

The Premier League's 'Big Six' - Liverpool, Manchester United, City, Chelsea, Arsenal and Tottenham - are founding members of the Super League alongside Real Madrid, Atletico, Barcelona, Inter Milan, AC Milan and Juventus.
