Who would be your choice as England captain, does Beck's still do it for you or with the likes of SWP will he continue to feature enough? Does Beck's motivate enough?
Sol for me, don't deny that Becks is a good captain but think that he may be freer to show all of his game without the additional responsibility that comes with captaincy (don't think that he is the Real captain). I am happier with the captain coming from either the centre of midfield or defence, think that it is where he can use his influence with the greatest effect, probably not ideal when playing wide out on the wing.
I have always admired Campbell as a player and think that the captains role is one that he assumes with ease, if I were picking the team his name would be the first on the teamsheet.
Not sure Campbell is all that vocal.
The trouble with taking the captaincy off Beckham is that it makes it into a "big issue". He's had that armband for many years, and its something he is clearly immensely proud of. I don't think he would relinquish it willingly, and he IS still a hugley important player for England. I think he's a pretty good captain, generally leads by example and there's no doubting his drive and passion. I don't think he's the IDEAL captain, but it'd make too many waves to take it off him now.
If not Beckham, I'd go for John Terry. A strong character, natural leader, and as others have said, I like having a central defender as a captain as they're always involved and in a position to influence.
Terry for me as well, and I think it should continue after tonight as well, he may JUST be the difference between England playing somewhere near their full potential !!
