Fabio Capello has revealed that he quit the post of England coach in order to "defend" John Terry and finds people in England "too moralist".
The 66-year-old resigned from the Three Lions post in February this year following the FA's decision to strip the Chelsea defender of his captaincy.
"The reason I left England was to defend Terry," the Italian told Italia 2. "English people are too moralist - they want people to behave in a certain way, and then they take hasty decisions like that [of Terry] who was later acquitted.
"My intention is to end my career when my contract with Russia terminates. If there's an interesting project I could change my plans but nowadays I can't see nothing interesting."
Capello is now working as the Russia head coach.
