Should be captain full time.
Obviously first choice defender - unlike Terry.
I'd have Ferdinand with either Woodgate or King (when fit).

If King can ever get to full fitness again! In his recent games for Spurs he's looked a shadow of his former self.

Don't like Terry but think he is definitely better than Woodgate or King.
Is King ever going to be fully fit? Spurs seem to be using him very sparingly to preserve his fitness.

Terry is worse than Woodgate or King in their pomp. Unfortunately we'll never see King fit enough to be in an England shirt again. I'd still have Woodgate ahead of Terry though.

Terry has consistently played well for one of the best teams in the country for the last 5 years.
Woodgate has played sporadically for Real Madrid, an awful Newcastle side, Middlesbrough and a woeful Spurs side. There is a reason none of the big clubs have shown any interest in him.
Also, as everyone seems to be lauding Capello at the moment, I think it's fair to say that it's quite probable that he knows a lot more about John Terry than we do.

You mean big clubs OTHER than Real Madrid...

Terry is a great leader, there's no doubt about that. But I think he gets an easy ride by a) playing for one of the best teams in the league and b) playing alongside Carvalho, one of (if not THE) best centre backs in the world. When he's isolated he doesn't look quite so clever. He also pisses me off immensly when he tries to referee games all by himself and constantly argues with officials (and yes, I realise he's not the only one!).

That goal is SOLELY the fault of Wes Orange and I won't hear another word on the matter.

He still looks like a duck though.

Well , neither of the two blokes he was marking scored?
I think Walcott takes some of the blame, he was behind the goal scorer, not making an effort to pick up the man.

Wasn't Baked Bean behind the goalscorer?
Walcott did get repeatedly owned by their left mid last night, he looks shocking defensively.

God that picture sums him up. Someone else has scored, the other players celebration is focused on the scorer, Ferdinand does all he can to draw attention to himself and is far more concerned about checking whether the crowd are focused on him.
