He's lost the dressing room
He seemed like a genius in qualifying but if he doesn't have the confidence of the players he has to go. Having said which it's a cheap and easy thing to blame the manager for things which at club level the manager would absolutely be to blame for (basic defence, for example) but which an international manager should reasonably expect his players to get. 4-4-2 isn't a complex formation and our back four and midfield were out of position so often it was a joke. So I think the players need to look very hard at themselves. We should pick players for Euro 2012 with 2014 in mind. All of which said I'm not sure Capello's position is tenable now.
