England captain Jordan Henderson didn't hide in bore draw with Slovenia... has Gareth Southgate found his new leader?

It is time to talk about one of the nation’s most debated subjects: the England captaincy. So which category do you fall into?

Are you with former England manager Fabio Capello, who once said it was 'cursed'? Do you sit in the camp of Graham Taylor, one of Capello’s predecessors, and see it as 'overstated'? Or are you with John Terry, who wore the armband 32 times and declared it 'the biggest honour in football'?

No prizes for guessing how Jordan Henderson sees it. The news agenda for the past 48 hours has, of course, revolved around Wayne Rooney being axed but while that hullabaloo has raged, one man has quietly gone about his business and digested his little piece of history.
