England boss Fabio Capello has said that he will never pick up the phone to his players.


Capello angered fans and officials when he failed to communicate with Rio Ferdinand after deciding to re-install John Terry as skipper.


"My way of working is very simple. We have the good fortune to work only a few hours a day, therefore in the little time we have for working, you have to do it well," The Sun quoted Capello, as saying.


u00a0"And after work we're free to have fun and do what we want. I never telephone my players. Never, if a player is injured, I don't call him, but I will call the doctor," he said.

u00a0"A manager is not a big brother; I have better things to do than put my nose into my players' business. You have players who behave well and others who behave less well. The problem here is particularly that photographers know where the players go, so the next day you find it on front pages of papers or YouTube," Capello said.

u00a0"You just have to be careful. I say to my players, have fun, but be careful about the people around you and in particular beware of mobile phones," he added.

u00a0Capello is set to quit England after the Euro Championships next summer.
