John Terry is the New England Captain

A few days ago, it was announced that John Terry - Chelsea’s captain - has regained his position as England captain, beating Rio Ferdinand to the captaincy.

In a press conference, Fabio Capello said the following:-

“Rio, when he was captain, played very well - the same level as John. It was not easy for me to choose because they are very good players. The big personality of John was the reason I chose John but Rio is very important to the team.”

We Say: I am personally quite shocked by this. I’m not saying JT isn’t a good captain, because he is for Chelsea. However, I feel he didn’t really lead the team with gusto in the Euros like he probably should’ve. Rio in my eyes should have been made captain, give him a chance to prove himself.

What do you think? Do you think Rio or John Terry shoudl’ve been made captain? Or maybe somebody else? Leave your thoughts in the comments below!
