11/20/2008 - Berlin, Germany (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Fabio Capello is pleased to see his England team playing with such confidence after watching them produce an impressive display to beat Germany 2-1 in a friendly international in Berlin on Wednesday.
Only 12 months ago Steve McClaren's reign as England chief ended with a dismal defeat to Croatia at Wembley in a Euro 2008 qualifier, but Capello has transformed the team's fortunes and they played with panache to dominate a disappointing Germany side.
Capello is delighted with the transformation, saying after the victory: "When I started this job I said we had to recover the confidence.
"The players who have been with us understand this. We can see it during the game and in training. We are very pleased.
"I think it is impossible to be better than this. We have played nine games and after every one I said the players had taken another step forward. Today is another one. The players played very well. They played like a team. That was very important.
"It was a very good result for us. I said on Wednesday I had confidence in the team because I felt the players knew what I wanted during the game and knew what they had to do.
"We played very well, all the players did. They played with confidence and technical ability and I am very happy about that."

Dallas Cowboys Super Bowl Odds
Will he or won't he? Now that the Dallas Cowboys have a new head coach in Wade Phillips, the big question will be: Does Terrell Owens stay with the team.
Jerry Jones continues to suggest that Terrell Owens will remain with the team.
"I've said that he's back, he's here, he's under contract," Jones said. "In the interviews I've just been through (to hire a new coach), it was very clear to me how highly he's thought of and how much of an impact he had on our offensive success."
Just to be sure though, Terrell Owens cleared out his locker and removed his name plate.
Terrell Owens was among the Cowboys most productive players this past season, catching 85 passes for 1,180 yards and a league-best 13 touchdowns.
But T.O. is due a $3 million roster bonus in June, then a $5 million salary this season. Cutting him before then would save a lot of money and headaches.
Aside from the questions surrounding Terrell Owens, the oddsmakers at MySportsbook.com have concerns over starting quarterback Tony Romo's state of mind and whether he will remain a starting quarterback. It is also not known how players will adjust to new head coach, Wade Phillips.
