New England Captain

[Colchester Kev]

Just been named as .... John Terry.

A good choice IMO ...passion passion passion !!!!

[Rooky9]

The wrong choice IMO, I think Terry is more selfish than Gerrard, he cant carry a team and he does not show as much passion.

He is a good captain non the less.

As captain and vice captain I think they will work well together...for the first time in a long time I agree with an England Manager

Newcastle, which actually puts me in a neutral position unlike some Terry backers! Like I say he is stil a good captain no doubt, I just think Gerrard has an edge for the reasons I stated.

It's the kind of decision that most managers would both hate to have to make, but also love to be in this position - Terry or Gerrard? "Do I go for this really great club captain or the other really great club captain? Damn, it's a toughie... "

Sadly, there can only be one - and Terry as Captain with Gerrard as Vice Captain seems like a good compromise. From what I've read today it sounds like Gerrard will be given plenty of opportunities in the coming campaign to lead the team out.

Win-win for England.

Replace "Terry" with "anyone" and we're there!

LOL three of the four quotes actually fit what i said! but...

1) Gerrad has far more passion in his interviews and personality, Terry must have takne lessons off shearer for his post match interview.
2) I at no point stated he was a better leader, I think thats impossible to judge! Notthing between them fr motivating there club team mates.
3) what need clarifying about this? Gerrard carried Liverpool to a chamions league, Terry, partly because of his position, cant and doesnt do this
4) I didnt say he was selfish, just more selfish than Gerrard. I suppose I'm aluding to his off the field antics as well as some of his on field arrogance, Gerrard is TEAM through and through and a great role model.

That really doesnt say a lot for the players round him then though!
