Don't think captaining the Country is going to make any difference to his performances for us. But I think England needs a bit of a change, id go with Joe Hart.

Tbh gerrard and the supposedly golden era have had their time and frankly been a bunch of :censored:.

Its time for the new breed to be given a chance.

The likes of ferdinand,cole,gerrard,terry,lampard although great for their clubs have never done it enough for their country.

He deserves it, but I don't want him to have it. Like MH said I would rather see him quit playing for England.

I want him to quit England as well, but we all know that's not going to happen at least until after Euro.  He deserves to be England's captain far more then any others, and when he was given that privilege during the last world cup he excelled.

England have missed their chance with Gerrard. I genuinely believe if we built the team around Gerrard ala Rafa Benitez England's performances in major tournaments would have been a hell of a lot better.

I agree with giving it to Joe Hart, purely because it can stay with him for 10 years and the media frenzy over it can do one

It should never have left Gerrard after the world cup. Throughout his England career he has been p!ssed about, playing left midfield or defensive midfield to compensate for the waster Frank Lampard. Whenever Gerrard has played in his favored role he has performed. He has done even better when he doesn't have the so called golden generation holding the team back.

So yes, Gerrard should be captain, but captain of a whole bunch of new players to the set up while we get rid of Terry, Ferdinand, Beckham and Lampard. It would also help if we stopped making out that Rooney is our key player when he hasn't done a bloody thing for England for years.

Agreed. if England want any chance this summer they will need him as captain and played in his favoured position.

Take the rugby approach and give it to someone with one cap!  :D

BTW what's the deal with Capello, is he trying to get the sack deliberately, he was a fecking idiot to have given the armband back to Terry in the first place and is now being made to look the fool he is.

:laugh: :laugh:

Capello's in trouble and it's all John Terry's fault! :laugh:

Seriously though the FA were in a tough situation regarding Terry, damned if you do damned if you don't. This is pretty funny though, never a dull moment in the build up to a major tournament!
