Roberto Mancini applauds FA for sticking with Fabio Capello

Manchester City manager Roberto Mancini has backed the Football Association's decision to retain Fabio Capello as England coach.   Capello's future in the role was in doubt following England's woeful World Cup campaign which saw the Three Lions beaten 4-1 by Germany in the first knockout round in South Africa.   But the FA have since announced the former AC Milan and Real Madrid boss will stay on, a move endorsed by his fellow Italian Mancini.    Still in charge: England boss CapelloCity slicker: Eastlands chief Mancini 'In my opinion England have the best national coach possible. He (Capello) is creating the basis for a solid team. The problem is not that, but another one," he said, referring to the busy Barclays Premier League campaign.   'In England you play too much. Capello already said that and so did (former England manager Sven-Goran) Eriksson.   'You cannot have them under pressure as is the case here. In the years of European Championships and World Cups, you need a winter break to catch your breath.' Roberto Mancini admits Manchester City are after Inter Milan star Mario Balotelli and Wolfsburg's Edin DzekoIt's FAcebook!
