He’s So Fabio………..
What an inspired appointment Fabio Capello has been for England. From being apparent no hopers, posers, and dimwits, England all of a sudden look like a professional outfit, tacticly flexible, and capable of nullifying threat whilst looking dangerous going forward. There is not a Wag in sight, there is no mention of stupid nicknames like Bex, JT or Stevie G, and certainly no favouritism as witnesssed during the McLaren shambles. Capello is the ...
