England striker Wayne Rooney let out his frustration after the full-time whistle following the 0-0 World Cup draw with Algeria by blasting the supporters who booed the team off the pitch.
Capello's side seemed to struggle under the weight of expectation on Friday evening, as a well-drilled Algerian side suppressed any attacking impetus in the Three Lions brigade.
And as the match neared to a close, the travelling Three Lions support began to boo the England players following several tame efforts in front of goal.
The Manchester United striker, who was among the most disappointing performers during the game, was clearly enraged at the full-time whistle.
Having struggled to make an impact against the Group C outsiders, Rooney fired back at the faithful who have paid thousands of pounds to watch Fabio Capello's flops, when he sarcastically said: "Nice to see your home fans boo you. That's what loyal support is."
England must now beat Slovenia in their final qualifying group match to stand any hope of reaching the knockout rounds, in a campaign where many expected the side to progress comfortably.
