In an interview to fifa.com, England manager Fabio Capello spoke about the pressures of his job, his team’s UEFA Euro 2012 campaign and then the topic turned to what sort of football did the 65-year-old Italian liked to watch. The answer, unsurprisingly, was FC Barcelona. Capello was asked whether there was a way to stop Pep Guardiola’s side. Read the answer and other Barca-related excerpts after the jump.
What type of football do you enjoy watching?
“At the moment, the best type of football to watch on TV or to see at the stadium is Barcelona. It is a really difficult style to use with another team or country, because you would need the same players that play at Barcelona. They have seven players who came from the academy and they started playing their style at a young age.”
Can you see anyone stopping Barcelona in the near future?
“I think so. It will be possible, because we are lucky now that we can study opponents. You can find a solution to stop Barcelona, by understanding their strengths. You can study a lot, looking at tapes. Some team will find the solution to beat Barcelona. Also, when you win a lot, sometimes you lose something to be really focused every game, to want to win. Some players are getting older too.”
