Capello said, "That's crazy from envious people. Because he's not just a great manager. He knows the players, he gets the best out of them. The players follow him, they listen to him... that's why they win. He's a humble coach. He seems soft and not hard but he has a lot of personality.
"Carlo is doing an incredible job. Throughout his period as a coach he has always won titles: Spain, Italy, Germany... everywhere.
"He is very brave, he knows how to train and treat the players He knows how to encourage them to be better and continue winning. The most difficult thing in football is to win again."
