Jamie Carragher

Every three or four games, you're building up towards a game.

So there's actually the warm-down after one game.

Then you're building up to the next one with the training.

You can't be going out anywhere.

You'll be flying about around town.

If I was at home in Liverpool, I'd have had a game in a day or two anyway.

So I always think whenever you're a player, and I always take myself back to a player, I've never managed, I've never coached, is...

Always look at yourself first.

Always do that.

Now, that doesn't mean you can have thoughts on, I might as well have done something different or...

couldn't have played a different team or could have went about things better.

I'm sure Fabio Capello could in some cases, but to actually blame where we were, blame Capello, blame what the food was, I just think it's a nonsense.

And I think the players at that time, we didn't perform at World Cups and it wasn't just that World Cup.

It was almost every other tournament we didn't perform.

So why that then comes down to Capello's management, how he went about things.

And let's not forget, this is a manager who's won European Cups and managed the best players in the world in Maldini, Van Basten, Hull, Beresi.

Uh,

So I think it's a bit rich for us as players who haven't really achieved anything international to start questioning a manager of Capello's calibre.

I'll tell you what happened at half-time.

when the goal-winner I thought was brilliant management.
