 | Peter Reid has called upon Fabio Capello to hand Steven Gerrard the England captaincy on a full-time basis. |
The former Everton midfielder believes the Reds skipper has the same type of talismanic quality as his old Three Lions teammate Bryan Robson and admits that if he was in the England dugout, there is no doubt who he would hand the armband to.
Reid said: "There's different types of captains but I think the inspirational ones in the middle of the park, like Robson, like Gerrard, galvanize the team when they need galvanizing.
"I think Steve Gerrard, when he has responsibility, is a better player. I'd give it [the England captaincy] to him, I think he's one of those that likes to lead from example. He's all action, he can get a goal, he can play from attack. If it was up to me it would Gerrard."
