Ferguson backs Capello for England job

Alex Ferguson and Arsene Wenger rarely see eye to eye - but one thing they agree on is Fabio Capello's suitability for the England job.

The Manchester United and Arsenal managers both think the Italian's the right man to succeed Steve McClaren.

The FA may hold talks with Capello today - and Ferguson says they couldn't choose a better-qualified coach.

He said: "To manage a national team you need to be a certain age, with plenty of experience and presence, and a CV that’s indisputable, and Capello has all that."
