Terry won't lead England again under Capello

Soccer Betting Lines

03/02/2010 - London, England (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - England manager Fabio Capello has confirmed that Steven Gerrard will captain his side against Egypt at Wembley on Wednesday in the absence of the injured Rio Ferdinand.

The Italian has also confirmed that John Terry will not captain his country again while he is in charge of the national team.

When asked if he would even consider handing Terry the captain's armband again, Capello answered: "I think no. I think the next captain will be Rio. For Wednesday, the captain will be Steven Gerrard.

"I spoke with the players and said they have to recreate the spirit of the team and train with focus. I'm really happy because I saw the same thing as in November (in the friendly against Brazil in Doha).

"John Terry is training very well. He will be the same player in the dressing room. I told him you have to do the same things as a captain. We hope to play very well and we invite the fans to help us.

"It's not easy to win the African Nations Cup three times if you are not a good team. I watched Egypt's games and it is a really, really good team.

"They are dangerous, they are really well organized on the pitch who know what to do in every moment. I think it will be a really interesting test for us."

Terrell Owens could return for Cowboys next game
A bye week will allow Terrell Owens broken hand to recover just in time for the next game the Dallas Cowboys are slated to play, according to reports. MySportsbook.com, an football sportsbook, has posted football betting lines on TO playing.

Owens broke the bone leading to his right ring finger Sunday night and had a plate surgically attached to it Monday. Although Owens' hand was swollen and aching Wednesday, Dallas Cowboys coach Bill Parcells said he's optimistic the receiver will be back at work next week and catching passes a week from Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.

MySportsbook.com online sportsbook listed Terrell Owens with odds of 7-2 (or $7 paid out for every $2 bet) to return back for the game against Tennessee.

"I certainly wouldn't rule it out now," Parcells said, referring to Terrell Owens immediate return. "Maybe five days from now I might, but I wouldn't rule it out now. ... I know we're looking to try to get him moving around pretty good in the next day or so. So we'll see where we are."

Owens did not speak with reporters Wednesday, but said Sunday he'd be out two to four weeks. A return against the Titans would be 13 days after the surgery. The Cowboys were listed as an early -7 1/2 favorite vs. the Tennessee Titans for Week 4 at MySportsbook.com
