Chelsea skipper John Terry has backed Wayne Rooney as England captain.
Terry expressed his support for Manchester United striker Rooney's recent appointment as captain following Steven Gerrard's retirement from international football following the World Cup.
He said: "He's still one of the best players in the world and the right choice for the captain.
"He's a leader in the dressing room and the training field, he sets an example on daily basis. I've been on a the receiving end of a few of the shouts from him.
"When you're not performing well in training, he's the first one to let you know."
