Rio Ferdinand explained how he was impressed by Fabio Capello in the Italian's first day in charge of England. "He commands your respect, just knowing what he has achieved gives him an aura but there is no fear involved," said the Manchester United defender. It is like the first day at a new school, going to secondary school from primary school." Ferdinand revealed that the former Real Madrid coach needed no time to get involved with the star-studded England squad. "He has been very involved in the first training sessions and made other decisions about us coming down to breakfast together and leaving together, bonding really," he added. "He has addressed us all in English, surprisingly good English too." Capello will start his England career by facing Euro 2008 co-hosts Switzerland at Wembley on Wednesday.
