I have moved on from Terry and Ferdinand, insists England boss Hodgson

Goal :    England manager Roy Hodgson insists he has “moved on” from the debate over John Terry and Rio Ferdinand’s international careers, suggesting he has plenty of promising alternatives to consider.

The Chelsea captain retired from international football in the aftermath of being given a four-match ban by the FA for racially abusing Anton Ferdinand, while the Manchester United defender — and Anton’s brother — has not featured for the Three Lions under Hodgson.

Now, the 65-year-old boss now feels he has enough promising talents to consider in the center back positions for the national team to put the warring duo out of his mind for good.
