England Captain, John Terry will be watching Saturday's World Cup clash against Kazakhstan as opposed to playing in it, after he was ruled out with a back injury. Terry suffered the injury last week in Chelsea's Champions League bout against CFR Cluj.
The Chelsea skipper has suffered back problems in the past. In late 2006, Terry had surgery on his back which caused him to miss two months of action. It appears however, that his current injury could've been prevented.
Terry suffered the injury due to the hard surface last week at Cluj's home, Gruia stadium. Even with the discomfort in his back, the 27-year-old opted to play in Chelsea's league match against Aston Villa over the weekend. Terry showed toughness as he played through the pain, and went the full 90, but that decision has proven to be costly.
The world class defender will miss tomorrow's match and is most likely not going to partake in next Wednesday's World Cup Qualifier against Belarus either. It appears that England manager, Fabio Capello will hand the captain's armband to fellow defender Rio Ferdinand during Terry's hiatus.
What do you think of Terry's injury? Was it just bad luck? Or wrong decision making? Should Ferdinand be England's Captain from here on out? Share your thoughts below.
