‘I will understand if he is not happy, but I am the manager. I have to take decisions. I am not concerned if people think I am indecisive.’
Asked if he was worried Terry’s behaviour could cause a problem again, Capello seemed unequivocal.
‘John Terry is old enough to understand this is a really important role: Chelsea captain, England captain and one of the most important players in the world,’ he said.
Capello may be heading north to treat Ferdinand to his innermost thoughts, but the United man will be naive if he cannot read between the lines. Having lost the United captaincy to Nemanja Vidic — again because of injury problems — it will be a huge blow, even if Capello tries to let him down easily by couching Terry’s return as a short-term measure.
