Man Utd striker Rooney: Capello can kill you with stare

Manchester United ace Wayne Rooney admits he's more frightened of England coach Fabio Capello than Sir Alex Ferguson.

The England striker, 24, can take the hairdryer treatment but not the Capello stare.

Rooney said: "It's just little things. Like when he walks down the corridor past you.

"The way he holds himself, the way he looks at you. You just know he's a tough man - he has that aura about him. Sometimes he just walks by as if you're not even there and it can be quite intimidating."
