Capello angers Italians with ultra comments

I love Italian ultras. They are real football supporters. Ultras are adding more colour to the football.

Capello has right to reveal his opinion about Italian ultras, but the timing to critisize ultras right now is totally unnecassary. Probably, he become more English than English. He is very naive to claim English fans (Hooligans) are more family frindly than Italian supporters.

Probably he forgat recent Milwall vs West Ham game, probably due to his Englishness....

Tonto and Giorgio,

Sorry, but you were naive to stand for Capello in this matter. Capello claimed Italian football of being ruined by diving and run by the Ultras. He said in Italy divers are praised but in England they were jeered. What a bullshit (sorry Tonto, I used a word that I should not have used). His comments are ridicoulus. When Owen dived against Argentina, in 1998 and 2002 World Cups, he was praised and treated as a hero. As a matter of fact, his most of star players are divers. His star player, Rooney, blatantly dived against Slovenia (there are many if you search). His other leading player, Gerrard, is even a hypocrite as well as a diver. He claimed that players like Ronaldo and Carvalho damaging football as they are divers. However, he has a history of simulation as a diver himself. (i.e. his most recent dive against Atletico Madrid, how about his dive against Bolton, probably the worst one). Capello should speak to his players first to be ethical, then critisize others.

I follow Italian, Spanish and English leagues. I watch at least one game from each league every week. I can assure you both that more divers are in EPL than any other leagues including Israeli league.

Ericksson was very succesfull, beginning of his time as an English manager. He was then sacked. Capello will share same fate like Ericksson, soon.

Tonto, I do not think Pope Benedict would welcome me. Or he might, if I am converted to Catholicism.
