John Terry was named the captain for England today, for the impending friendly against The USA. He is the third captain to be picked in Fabio Capello's rotation sytem. He will choose a permanent captain at the beginning of World Cup Qualifying. Rio Ferdinand, and Steven Gerrard were the two captains, in the England's previous two friendlies against France, and Switzerland respectively. Terry received a much needed pick me up, after slipping on his game winning penalty, and clanking it off the post. Kickoff is set for 3:00 ET, and the game will be broadcast live on ESPN Classic, and Galavision. My prediction is that the US will win 2-1 and surprise England. You can refer to my article on why the US will win the game here.
