Star man: Jones staked his claim for a place in Fabio's 2012 squad
'I know Rooney is a really fantastic, important player, but the team spirit is important. I saw in these two games really good spirit.' Capello added: 'We created a lot of chances to score. Some of the players played really well - Phil Jones, Jack Rodwell - and I think it was a really testing game, because after 43 years we finally beat Sweden.
'I'm happy but I think we need to improve from it because when you've got the ball possession you need to move it a lot quicker.'
