Football betting odds - Capello thanks Bilic for World Cup boost

England manager Fabio Capello has thanked his Croatian counterpart Slaven Bilic for motivating the group six leaders ahead of their World Cup qualifying match.

The two teams will face each other at Wembley tonight (September 9th) and Bilic stirred up interest by accusing the home side of losing their "Englishness" under the Italian coach.

Capello has responded by expressing his gratitude for the comments as he believes they will spur the squad on even more.

"It is the best. I have no need to motivate my players after this. It's fantastic assistance," he remarked, adding: "thank you Mr Bilic."

The former Real Madrid trainer also praised the spirit of his players, noting that it is "impossible to win" without a good attitude.
