Björn Ferry chatted with readers around lunchtime today. There he got questions about everything from his financial interest to how much he takes in bench press.
But one question that interested many readers was who Ferry thinks should replace national team manager Anders Byström, who yesterday declared that he will take over the cross country team instead.
SVT Sports expert is not sure that Byström will be replaced straight away.
- It all depends on what role that person should have. I'm not entirely sure that the role Anders had last year is really needed. More important is to find a really good secretary general, that is, who is the head of the whole biathlon association (that service has been out, but is not yet appointed). Of those who have been in the national team during my time, I think David Ekholm is the one who has the best leadership qualities. David Ekholm would fit well, says Ferry in the chat.
He also received a number of questions about Stina Nilsson's branch change. One of these is: Can you rank the Swedish biathletes by how high you hold them?
- If you are wondering who can make the best individual race in three years, then I would have Stina Nilsson as one, Elvira Öberg as second and Hanna Öberg as third, replied Ferry.
