No, but I'd quite like to see him dropped to teach him a lesson. We ought to be able to beat Slovenia with Carragher and Dawson at the back.

Please, somebody enlighten me, what has he done??

As far as I can tell, people are commenting on the interview he had yesterday, where people hailed him for "showing passion", talking sense and being a better leader than Gerrard, and now saying he was in the wrong, and went against Capello.

If people are outraged about that interview yesterday they really need to get a grip. He did nothing wrong in that interview, everything he said was spot on imo. Ah well, I suppose some people will crucify him for the rest of his days because of that one mistake he made.

The overreaction to that press conference yesterday really is something to behold. I watched the whole lot, and thought Terry was perfectly reasonable in his comments, yet this morning all the papers are screaming about "MUTINY IN THE CAMP". Absolutely ridiculous. I woke up to the radio reports this morning and thought it must have all kicked off overnight. I couldn't BELIEVE it turned out they were just referring to Terry's conference.

Terry was asked whether the players can approach Capello to talk about tactics and selections. Terry confirmed that yes, they could, and that there was a meeting that night to go over the Algeria game ("probably the whole 90 minutes"). This is then translated into "crisis talks" and "Terry looking to undermine Capello's authority"...what a load of old bollocks.

He was then asked by a French reporter about his take on the Anelka situation, and he made a joke about "maybe some of us will be sent home this evening as well". Predictably this is SIEZED on and reported as though he said it completely po-faced, which he clearly didn't. The twists, spin, interpretations and presumptions reporters put on these press conferences just to splash a load of misleading sensational headlines is tiresome and pathetic

Our media would f***ing LOVE an England player to be sent home and a resulting players strike. They would absolutely cream themselves for a story like that. But in the absense of one, they have to make do with "sexing up" a mundane series of soundbites from Terry to make it sound like the squad is in complete meltdown and tearing itself apart.

:rolleyes:

Dear me. There was no outburst whatsoever in the press conference. Did you actually watch it or did you just read about it in The Sun? I watched it live and he said nothing particularly interesting or out of the ordinary. All totally standard stuff. Fairly boring if anything. The reaction from the British public has been, as ever, massively over the top.

*sigh*
