For his first game in charge, new England manager Fabio Capello entrusted Steven Gerrard with the captaincy but he appears to have implemented a rotation policy as he searches for a long-term leader.

Ferdinand, who sometimes skippers United in the absence of Ryan Giggs and Gary Neville, has played 65 times for England so far.
