Gribz 743 Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 Bold decision from Beckham and probably the right one. I actually think with the pressure off him he could do a better job just playing football now. But it could also see him losing his regular place. Contenders for next captain Colshy?? Terry Ferdinand Gerrard I prefer a captain to be a defender so would give it to Terry but he was a shadow of the Terry we saw in the EPL in the last 2 years. Gerrard would be an equally good captain. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon 0 Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 Watched the press conference. Just took the flak away from Erikson imo. Beckham shouldnt have been captain for the last year. As poorly as Terry played I think he'll be automatic choice 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 5,199 Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 Definitely NOT Ferdinand. If it were me I would choose Terry - he is a rock for England and would go through brick walls for them. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza_8 233 Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 Gary Neville will become the new captain. Has he retired from international football or just retired from captaining them? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 743 Posted July 2, 2006 Author Share Posted July 2, 2006 Gary Neville will become the new captain. Has he retired from international football or just retired from captaining them? I thought about Neville but they will look at Terry for the long term and he;s younger. Becks is still playing on coz he wants to get to 100 caps. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Koeman 0 Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 JT for me. He sums up the type of Captain I like....Someone who gives his all. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beattie 0 Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 Yeah I'll be shocked if it's anyone other than Terry. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete 2,499 Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 I think it will be Gerrard. I feel he has more influence over the other players. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
colshy18 0 Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 it`s got to be john terry. if not him then gerrard. beckham should just give up his career all together for england 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewarty 1,876 Posted July 2, 2006 Share Posted July 2, 2006 He was only an automatic choice because he was captain. His form certainly doesn't merit a starting position so I would expect Becks to start from the bench and probably retire from international football before the next European Championships. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
