Capello told England players they were too fat - Green

Former England goalkeeper Robert Green reveals that manager Fabio Capello weighed the players every day during their 2010 World Cup campaign.

England were knocked out at the last-16 of the tournament, after a humiliating and controversial 4-1 defeat to Germany.

Green said: "We got weighed every day and got told we were too fat.

"I would say more than three quarters of the squad would have been told they were overweight."
