England manager Fabio Capello has been a set a minimum target of taking the team to the semi-finals of the 2010 World Cup or Euro 2012 in an FA a review published today.

Capello, who took charge of England in January following their failure to qualify for next month's Euro 2008 finals, has a record so far of won one lost one.

But the 61-year-old Italian said he was confident of achieving the goals set out in the 50-page review entitled The FA's Vision 2008-12.

"I think the team I have at the moment is capable of achieving these targets," Capello told reporters at Wembley Stadium.

"I believe you must always be positive. My personal objective every time I have coached and managed has been to get to the top.

The document noted that Capello's task was not helped by the number of foreign players in England.

"It is no longer possible to consider the success of the senior men's team without acknowledging that the number of eligible players for it is declining," it stated.

The FA also announced it was pressing ahead with a new National Football Centre in the English midlands and would be appointing an international performance director, responsible for all England teams below the senior men's team.

The review was ordered following England's failure to qualify for Euro 2008. The FA's new chairman and David Triesman, told a news conference the association wanted to "adopt a winning mentality, not just on the pitch but in everything we do".

"I want us to win, I want us to be in the mix for every major tournament and that we are there with the prospect of winning," he said.
