England's World Cup quest begins against USA in Rustenburg on Saturday and manager Fabio Capello admits taking the team all the way in South Africa would be his biggest achievement in the sport.

Capello has had a glittering career at club level but he admits victory in South Africa would be the icing on the cake.

"It would be my biggest achievement," he said. "Always, I am focused to win. Always, I look ahead.

"I have built teams and worked with teams. All that matters to me is to win. We play to win. I exist to win."

England qualified in fine style and the Italian says the dream is alive.

"It was a dream to be England manager and I hope the next dream comes off too," Capello said. "It is fantastic. It is exciting. It is a tough job. Behind me there is a whole country. I have to live with this pressure.
