<p><br /> The Football Association is reviewing the involvement of England manager Fabio Capello in a player ratings website at this summer's World Cup.<br /> </p><p><br /> Capello has created a storm of controversy by putting his name to the project, which has left senior figures within the FA feeling very uncomfortable.<br /> </p><p><br /> Although the FA have yet to offer an official stance, it would appear Capello will come under pressure to shelve the idea, at least until after the World Cup.<br /> </p><p><br /> The site intends to use the 'Capello Index' to provide performance data on all players within two hours of games ending in South Africa.<br /> </p><p><br /> Already it has been depicted as Capello's analysis of matches being made public, when in actual fact that is not the case.<br /> </p><p><br /> However, the perception is clear for everyone to see and the FA are desperate to avoid any allegation of disharmony in the England camp for what they view as totally unnecessary reasons.<br /> </p><p><br /> Players are notoriously sensitive to their performances being marked and as they currently pay the 63-year-old a £6 million annual salary, the FA are questioning why Capello should feel the need to get involved in any outside project, let alone one so potentially inflammatory just before the Italian names his 30-man provisional squad for South Africa.<br /> </p>
