The sort of man we want to manage our national side needs to be tactically astute, have a successful record of winning trophies, have experience of football beyond our national borders, and not be afraid of dropping players who aren't performing.
Capello ticks all these boxes and more besides, and I for one am delighted with this appointment.

My reporting of the John Bull man clearly slowed down my posting. I like to give people as much detail as possible me, add a bit of flavour to the story, while you're obviously one to report the basic story as quickly as possible.Come on Jaffa, keep up, I posted the news a whole 2 minutes before you
He's the right man. It doesn't matter where he is from he is just the right man.

Look what happened last time we choose and English Manager.
We can talk about Capello's credentials and experience all we like, but the best reason for his appointment hasn't yet been mentioned by anyone.
It's upset Paul Ince.
You're like the Sky 'breaking news' ticker, while I'm like Sophie Raworth.
