Sven-Goran Eriksson believes it would be unfair to judge his tenure as Leicester manager until after Christmas. The Swede oversaw a 1-1 draw against Hull in his first game in charge on Saturday. The result left Leicester languishing in the bottom three of the Championship and Eriksson knows he is under pressure to transform the club`s fortunes quickly. However, he also believes it is not impossible to mount a promotion push despite the handicap they face. "Of course, people will start judging me now but that is football," Eriksson told the Leicester Mercury. "How long is it to Christmas, two months? I hope after Christmas. January is important for us. "It is tough because we have played 11 games and we are still in the bottom three, but there are 35 games to go and it could be possible (to mount a promotion challenge).
