FABIO Capello insists he is strong enough to cope with the pressure of England’s do-or-die World Cup clash with Slovenia on Wednesday.

With speculation mounting Capello will quit if England fail to secure a place in the knockout stages and his players openly questioning a hard-line strategy that appears ill-suited to spending weeks away in camp, the Italian has to try and keep a cool head and he insists he can cope.

“I am strong enough to deal with it,” he said. “It is no problem for me. I work hard and I prepare everything. That is important.”
