Praise for John Terry from Phil Jagielka.

No doubt tomorrow at some stage John Terry will be jeered and booed by members of the crowd at the Millennium Stadium as England take on Wales tomorrow. We may even hear a section of the England fans doing it too but for all the negative press he has received, for all the ex players who have waded in with their "valued" opinions about reinstalling John Terry as England Captain it's nice to hear from someone within the camp who has nothing to do with Chelsea, speaking of the man that Terry is.

Phil Jagielka, an underrated player in my opinion has paid tribute to our Captain and has rubbished reports of any reported rift in the England camp.

He said:

"John goes about his business the way he has always done, He is the first to smash you in training. He is also the first to shake your hand and pick you up. He was probably gutted inside when he lost the armband but he never let that show. It does make me smile when you read there is this big divide in the camp. I can't see anything.

He is a nice guy. He speaks to everyone. He has no best friends or worst friends. I am delighted to have him as a captain. I have been able to play with him a few times for England and hopefully I will get to play a few more but I am sure whoever the manager chooses will do a good job."

I think the key sentence here is when he said "He's the first to smash you and the first to shake your hand and pick you up".

Sums up JT perfectly!
