England appoint Fabio Capello as manager
The English Football Association have announced that they have selected former Real Madrid and A.C. Milan coach Fabio Capello as their new manager. Capello succeeds Steve McLaren, who was shown the door after England failed to qualify for Euro 2008. Capello has signed a four year deal worth six and a half million pounds a year, and will officially start his job on January 7.

Steve Coppell’s Reading side handed Liverpool their first defeat of the season when the Royals beat the Reds 3-1 in their Saturday night game at the Madjeski.
