Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard and Wayne Rooney don't want to take England captaincy from John Terry - report
2 Feb 2010 15:50:00
The future of John Terry as England captain is squarely in Fabio Capello hands, but his decision could be made easier with The Evening Standard reporting other players don't want the armband.
Replacement candidates Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard and Wayne Rooney have all reportedly expressed privately they would be uncomfortable assuming the captaincy if Capello decides to sack Terry.
The Chelsea defender has drawn heavy criticism following an alleged affair with a former partner of international team-mate Wayne Bridge, with numerous calls for the player to be stripped of his captaincy.
Capello claimed he is up to speed with all the details of the story and is preparing to meet Terry at the end of the week to decide his fate.
