Losing the job: John Terry (left) gives way to new captain Steven Gerrard  (right)

Terry denies the charge but has been stripped of the England captaincy.

On the issue of player behaviour, Hodgson, who coached Halmstad and Malmo in Sweden and the Finnish and Swiss national teams, said England ought to learn from their European opponents and trust players to behave in city centre environments.

'It wasn't my decision to go to Krakow but if I was asked how would I like my camp, either to be isolated or the other type where there is contact with other people, the players can go out and maybe have a cup of coffee and where they will see something else other than their room-mates, myself, and the coaching staff, then I would say give me that any day,' said Hodgson.

'The Swedes have been very good at that for years. Their mantra has been: "We're dealing with people who have the same goals as us, they want to do well. We'll make life as comfortable for them as we can and we trust them to behave like proper people when other people are around".

'I hope it will go well and if it doesn't then we will have learned another lesson.
