I think it's the right thing to do. Capello has to start with strong leadership. This shows that he's only going to pick players on merit. Once Beckham is back playing agan I'm sure he'll be in contention. Capello knows what he's got with Beckham after their time at Real. It's not the end of him for me.

Next question is who's going to be his captain?

On current merits it has to be Rio for me. Hargreaves in the future and Rooney after him.

As an England fan I'd love to see Scholes back as he's different class.

Who is you support again? To be honest rio is probably up there but its not like theres a big queue. Maybe Richards in the future?

Rio steroids cheat as captain of our national team. Then we can have a canadian as captain then a ginger any more great candidates you have in mind maybe wes brown.

Laughing out loud

Rio is the stand out choice at the mo for me. Only other is Gerrard maybe.

I think Hargreaves is the type of player Capello likes as his captain.

Rooney in the future because of his sheer will and desire he shows whenever he plays.

Richards is a long way from being the finished article and to talk about him as a possible England captain is too premature for me.

Captain has gotta be gerrard for me, I rate rio, just think hes a bit of a clown sometimes, although becoming the captain might be a good for him.

Captaining United is bigger than captaining England so it would actually be an easy job for Rio Cool

Gerrard disappears for England. He thrives on the big fish in a small pond at Liverpool. Gets to England and with players from bigger clubs and shrinks into the background. Rio has been our best defender at ever major tournament he's played in.

Laughing out loud That squad is fucking awfull!! This seriously isn't a dig but Curtis Davies, Heskey, David James, Upson, Downing and Agbonlahor are not international quality. Certainly not of a team who should be challenging for world cups and euro championships anyway.
