rzr,
No disagreeing with you on Ferdinand's antics off the pitch, but on the pitch I think he handles himself a lot better than Terry. Neither of them should be England captain really, but I'm not sure who does fit the bill. It needs to be a vocal leader who is also a a good enough player to warrant being selected for England. Gerrard is probably the closest to that but a succession of managers (club and international) choose not to play him in his most effective position consistently, so he is rarely a definite first choice for England. Hopefully Capello will play him in the centre as an attacking midfielder, with one of Carrick, Hargreaves or Barry alongside him.

he's one of the worst in the prem redzone for me, he 'raised his hand' but barely touched the man u player, so not really a red for me. BUT how many times does he go down under the same circumstances to try and get opponents off. real snide piece of work.
He dont need to do it cos he's a top striker, credit where its due.
I love it when they get their cummupance, he would have took pen instead of Terry, so probably cost them the match.

Same same Lehman's sending off for the woolwich against Barcelona. Brilliant.

But then maybe Im just a biased, bitter Spurs fan.
The only London team to win a 'major' trophy this season, well its major for us!!!

WL,
I'd say Gerrard for captain. He comes across as a quiet bloke, but when you look at him he dont half gee the other Liverpool players up.
best all-round midfielder in the world for me. No diving, play acting, hard as they come but just gets on with it. Reminds me of Darren Anderton LMAO

gerrard for me too thumbs up

no competition!
first name on the teamsheet for me everytime & as you say w/l, in his best position, centre midfield.
definately a good role model for the youngsters thumbs up

he's been messed about a bit by benitez, playing him out of position,also taking him off in the merseyside derby Shocked

i think if he wasn't such a hometown liverpool boy, he'd have left by now.

it would be nice to see him lined up alongside fabregas at the emirates thumbs up

Giggs

Overtakes B Charltons appearance record ...... in the European cup final no less
Think I heard he's the most 'medaled up' Man U player of all time ?

Can you think of a single negative incident involving him ? Apart from being born in Wales.

I'm a United a fan but John Terry is one of the few players in Chelseas team of mercenaries and whingers I admire.
Its obvious he loves the club and I felt for him missing that penalty.....a shame it wasnt Ballack who missed instead.
OK so he did something stupid in the past,just the same as Ferdinand,but he was young then and both have them have matured.
Personally I wouldnt mind any of Terry,Ferdinand or Gerrard as England captain but,most important,Gerrard would have to play in his favoured role of central midfield.

Zidane I think that is one reason that Stevie G will not be Englands captain because with him and Lampard in the same team, neither will get their favoured position.

I also think that it is much better to have a defender as captain (be it JT or Rio) as they can see what is going on in front of them all of the time, but with a midfielder that sort of vision is a lot harder.

Therfore I would see either JT or Rio as capatain and whoever does not get the job as vice captain.

Cheers

chelsea,
You obviously wear blue tinted spectacles when you watch Terry; as I said he is a very good defender, but the Captain should set the example to both his team and the fans with his behaviour both on and off the pitch. This isn't PC talk, but parent talk, and I do not want kids copying what Terry does - racist taunts, gobbing at other players, aggressive behaviour towards referees and other players - this is not the stuff that captains should be even thinking about, let alone an international captain. How can we expect kids to have any respect for others when they see this sort of behaviour get rewarded? Shoot em up
