Ruthless perfectionist. Stubborn disciplinarian. In Fabio Capello, England have a football manager like no one that has gone before him. Nine league championships in sixteen years, a record of unbroken success at every club he has coached, from the great Milan team of the early 1990s, to Real Madrid with David Beckham in 2007. Wherever he goes, Capello commands respect - and gains results.

Now Capello faces his greatest challenge yet, a task that he says is his long-cherished dream. To take England back to the top of the football world, to take the team to the World Cup in South Africa in 2012, and to win it. For Capello, nothing but the best will do. For England, it is win or bust. And you don't want to lose under Capello.

In Capello: Portrait of a Winner, Gabriele Marcotti untangles the complex character in whom England have invested their hopes and dreams. He talks to Capello's associates, and to the many enemies he has made in his determined drive to the top as a player and then a manager. He examines Capello's football philosophy, unveils the secrets behind his success, and gets behind the public persona to a man as comfortable visiting ancient ruins as standing on the touchline at Wembley. No one has ever got as close to Capello as Marcotti before, and this is not just the story of a remarkable career, but also the life of an extraordinary man.
