Capello will quit in 2012
Fabio Capello has confirmed he has no intention of continuing as England coach after Euro 2012.
After a disappointing World Cup performance, many pundits believe Capello was fortunate to remain in his 6 million-a-year post.
Heading into the current qualifying campaign there were still huge doubts over the 64-year-old's tenure, with most observers believing two poor results would force the Football Association to take decisive action.
Those concerns have now been removed after a couple of excellent performances against Bulgaria and Switzerland that have yielded six points and seven goals.
"Absolutely. Yes," he said when asked whether he would be leaving after Euro 2012, repeating the assertion to make sure everyone understood. "We have to qualify first of course but after that I will be too old. I want to enjoy my life as a pensioner."
