Capello: Milan To Win Scudetto

England national team manager Fabio Capello is tipping Milan to win this year’s Scudetto, and says that Ronaldinho has found his perfect environment following his summer move from Barcelona.
This year’s Serie A season is promising to be the most exciting of recent years, with four, if not five, teams in with a chance of winning the Scudetto.

Capello believes that Milan are the favourites for the Scudetto, and he has commented on the other major teams, while also passing judgement on Marcello Lippi following his return to the Azzurri hotseat.

"Ronaldinho has found the ideal environment to be reborn,” said Capello.

“Now it is Milan for the Scudetto. Fiorentina are not yet ready, but they are the team who intrigue me most and they can finish near the top of the league.

“Juve have good balance, are strong in all departments, and Poulsen is a good addition.

“Totti has reason to say that Roma need some more acquisitions. Mutu would have been perfect.

“The player who could explode this season is Cassano, but it depends on him. We must give time to Mourinho.

“As for Lippi, he has a great desire, but Italy must be careful of Trapattoni's Ireland."

The Azzurri have been drawn in the same World Cup group as the Republic of Ireland, who are managed by Italian coaching legend Giovanni Trapattoni.
