JT will captain england on wednesday. cant wait to see how fedinand reacts to that. and im sure the media will have a field day. well done JT, fully deserved.

All stand

This is not a permanent appointment, just part of the rotating system before Capello makes up his bloody mind

i know that valerie but after the crap hes taken this week, it`ll be nice to shove it in a few faces.

JT will always be a legend!

Temporary appointment it may be but, it's good to see Cappello show him the respect he deserves...

Perfect timing on Cappelo's part, I wonder if he decided that before the CL final?

we all know JT is the right man for the job

and this will be a great pick me up for him

Sense at last....

.................and p.s.

Terry will show Ferdinand how to be a REAL captain.

You may laugh at me, but I knew Capello would give him the armband. Although the Press have vilified JT for his tears on Wednesday, the passion and distress he showed would have struck a chord with Capello. I'm sure he'd prefer a skipper with some real emotion and JT ran the gamut in the CL final. He also had a bloody great game, which would not have gone unnoticed by FC. Stepping up for the pen also took balls. All of that would have been in JT's favour, I think.

But even if I'm wrong - and I often am - I am sure the confidence boost will be just what JT needs.

Look, JT was always first choice. Or that's what I believe. If you had to choose, say, a race driver for your race team, and had Michael Schumacher circa 2005 or 2006, Ralf Schumacher, David Coulthard ( ) and someone or other to choose from, who would you try first, and who would you try last? Michael Schumacher would not even need to be tested. He's the firm choice, except you wanted to see if there was a chance anyone could perhaps at a given moment do better, so you'd try the others out first. Then on the final test day you let the chosen one have a go and say, yup, he's still the best; the job's his.

quite f*cking right...no way should snoop dogg get merked into this position

I know its only a friendly,but thanks for making J.T. England captain(where he belongs).

To make up for his disapointment in Moscow.I hope England are awarded a penalty and let J.T take it.

JOHN TERRY GOAL !!!!!!!!!!!!!

How perfect. Ought to get his spirits up. This morning on sky the odds for Terry to score the opener- 20/1 shoulda placed a bet.

yes you should, and you should have bloody told us too....

John's dedicated His England goal to all the Chelsea Fans. The man's a legend. He was still trying to find back the tears in his interview.

^ Wow great sheets there

Isn't it annoying to see in every article about the preview for this game, or the aftermath, a comment about john terry missing the penalty. Whether it's John Terry will be captain after missing a penalty that would have seen Chelsea be champions league winners to John Terry scored the first goal after missing a penalty.

Give us a break, it's tragic enough as it is.

Capello's words on JT .... we all knew it, I hope the ars*holes who gave him stick all week take note...
