John Terry Odds on to remain England Captain for World Cup

Under fire Chelsea and England Captain John Terry did his talking on the pitch on Saturday, scoring the winner in his club side's 2-1 victory over Burnley at Turf Moor which saw the Londoners extend their lead at the top of the Premier League. The debate rages on however as to whether Terry should continue to captain the national side and bookmakers Ladbrokes have opened a market up on who will be wearing the armband when the national team line up against the USA on the 12th June in South Africa, with Terry still the 1/3 favourite despite this weekend's 'trial by tabloid'.

Much has been made of England Manager Fabio Capello's tough regime and talk of respect and professionalism, but will the Italian decide that enough is enough concerning his Captain's alleged off pitch activities and look for an alternative? Terry's alleged relationship with an England team-mates ex-girlfriend certainly made the headlines on Saturday morning, none more so than the fact that Terry tried to take out a gagging order so the story could not get released. However, a high court judge overturned the order and now fans and pundits alike are calling for a new England Captain.

2010 World Cup Odds

Ladbrokes have Steven Gerrard as second favourite to be calling the toss on June 12th at 4/1, with Rio Ferdinand and Wayne Rooney 10/1 and 14/1 respectively. The problem though is that these three are not shrinking violets when it comes to tabloid headlines either, both on and off the pitch. David Beckham gets a quote of 16/1 to regain leadership duties but it's difficult to see the AC Milan playmaker commanding a regular first team berth at South Africa 2010. With this in mind, Capello will most probably let Terry do his talking on the pitch, just like he did at Turf Moor in emphatic style.

Captain for England v United States - June 12th 2010

1/3 John Terry
4/1 Steven Gerrard
10/1 Rio Ferdinand
14/1 Wayne Rooney
16/1 David Beckham
