England's ups and downs

As you likely know, less than a week ago England captain John Terry was accused of having had an affair with the former girlfriend (and mother of his child) of fellow international Wayne Bridge; a scandal that has many in England now calling on Terry to resign as captain. With the World Cup only five months away, all the positive momentum England built over the past two years is on the verge of being erased (perhaps it already has). But if there is a man who is capable of disarming this explosive situation, or at least carrying England through it somewhat unscathed, it's manager Fabio Capello.
