Chelsea hero Desailly: Terry a natural leader

Submitted by tribalfootball.com on Tue, 02/07/2012 - 11:17

Chelsea hero Marcel Desailly has jumped to the defence of John Terry.

Desailly felt the Terry row would give his native France an advantage when they meet England at Euro 2012.

"I'm French and if you have problem in your national team and media, we'll try and take advantage of that in the summer," said Desailly, who was Terry's defensive mentor when the latter broke into the Blues side.

Desailly claimed stripping Terry of the armband was "going too far".

He added: "What is good is that Capello continues to stick behind his player because the player is a natural leader."
