Spain at home might sneak it, is it in Spain?

Based on what??
Italy have been great in wc qualifiers so far while brazil have been average at best.
Both games are likely to be draws. The players will be cautions. Won't want to get injured in a meaningless friendly with big club games coming up.

England are a different side under capello. Normally I would agree spain all the way but capello is a sneaky/clever manager. He knows who to get an even an average side like england playing well.

He has won where ever he has gone. Won at milan,roma,juve(with help) and twice with madrid.
His record is indisputable.
Spain should win but it won't be easy for them.

Why ''should'' Spain win?
At Madrid he was sacked before the season ended. He never did anything special at Madrid. Never changed much, if anything he went on a losing streak and couldnt catch Barca - was sacked and then ended up winning the title.
He wont do any wonders with the English team.

Agreed about the rape part. remember that when whats his name became the England manager, he had the best start of any England manager, remember the 5-0 win against Germany?
Then the English press interfered in his personal life and results went the way of his reputation.
BUT, Capello is a very good manager, he brings great stability to any team.

Wrong. He won the league twice. He was never sacked during the season. He was sacked twice after the season ended at madrid because they didn't like his style.

Wrong. Do you watch La Liga?
Their form was so bad that they had to deny that they were gonna sack him. He made one of the most entertaining teams in world football change their style to that of Inter/Chelsea. Defence Defence Defence!! He never did anything special in my opinion. Other than teach them how to defend. LoL
After a few losses, with Barca leading the way - the board had to fire him. Later in the year, we all know what happened. So he wins the league, but still gets fired. LoL
What a coach!!
Enough about Capello, i think he is a great coach. Dont like his style, i also believe you can be tactical and not camp 11 players in the box cos u scored the first goal.

He won the league and got sacked because they didn't like his style. That was their official reasoning. He didn't get fired during the season as your previous post claimed. I don't know if they decided they were going to sack him before the season ended if they did they were very silly.

Yup, they decided to fire him during the season.
Every press conference was about him losing his job. The board lost total faith in him. He basically just had to see the team through till the end of the season but everybody knows his job was over long before that.

Robinho And Brazil Lead Italy A Merry Dance
Brazil's attacking talent was at its creative best as a devastating first-half saw the South Americans register an insurmountable 2-0 lead. Elano and Robinho netted the strikes, to which the world champions had no reply...
Brazil 2-0 Italy

I think it's high time that he looks elsewhere for strikers - Giuseppe Rossi should have had more game time yet he only came on as a sub :(

Why should he not have faith in gilardino?? Second in the goal scoring ranks in serie a this season.

Italy have been great in wc qualifiers so far while brazil have been average at best.
Both games are likely to be draws. The players will be cautions. Won't want to get injured in a meaningless friendly with big club games coming up.
Can I say I told you so ? Brazil won by a 2 goal margin but Spain didnt just sneak it.
