England v France - Match Thread

[Uncle Albert]

When did i say he does that ?

When did i comment on the way he captains a side for that.

You were saying a captain can lead by example yes?

[Samilktray]

You were saying a captain can lead by example yes?

I said David Beckham lead by example.

I didnt say Rio Ferdinand did.

I just made the point that you dont have to be a captain of your club side to be an effective captain of your national side.

[lildave3]

I see nothing wrong with Rio as captain tbh.

So you honestly think that Rio will be more effective as John Terry as England Captain.

Depends what you want from a captain?

Some player that has a past experience of losing his head and surrounding and intimidating referees.

Or someone who is a much more respected figure and more consistent performer for England.

Didnt say this either.

How can i say without having seen him captain England.

I never really thought John Terry was that good as England captain, not yet anyway.

Ferdinand respected? He respects ref's that much he also got a booking on Sunday for decent towards Mr.Bennett.

John Terry is an arsehole towards refs but i would still prefer him to Ferdinand for some reason.

Ferdinand is the better player and alot more consistent, but John Terry has also achieved alot as being captain though. JT has won 5 trophies for his club side being captain.

I did not see him getting booked for dissent on Sunday myself, if he did I apologise.

I think a lot of people would prefer Terry just because of the fact he shows his passion and commitment for his country. Not always the best thing though as we noticed with Paddy McCarthy.

If I was going to give it to anyone for the game on Wednesday, it'd be David James.

Yea just for kicking the ball away when he fouled Torres.

Personally mine would be Owen or Gerrard if he didnt want to give it John Terry of course.

Sol Campbell would be in with a shout aswell.

That's not dissent surely?

[Samilktray]

That's not dissent surely?

I thought that.

[Uncle Albert]

That's not dissent surely?

Yes it is actually.

Havent got a Level 1 Certificate from the F.A for no reason.

[Tommy G]

Give Rio a chance. Why not?

I personally despise Terry so I'm glad Rio has been chosen.

[Simi]

That's not dissent surely?

I thought that.

It is.

Why? u never know

but prefer Stevie G instead on Lamps

[Brainy]

David Beckham will win his 100th England cap in the friendly against France on Wednesday, coach Fabio Capello has confirmed.

"I couldn't make him come all the way from the USA and not play him," said Capello, who did not reveal whether Beckham, 32, would start the fixture.

[lildave3]

Why? u never know

but prefer Stevie G instead on Lamps

Because the big boys will play.

And Lampard has a lot to prove, more than Gerrard, that's why i'd play him.
