JOHN TERRY
The Chelsea captain has quit international football and the paper's chief writers have been giving their thoughts on his decision.
Former England captain John Terry has announced his retirement from international football
Henry Winter says in the Daily Telegraph: "John Terry claimed on Sunday night that the Football Association had made his position in the England squad 'untenable'. Nonsense. Terry was the author of his own downfall."
Oliver Holt writes in the Daily Mirror: "He had become seen not as an ambassador for our football but as someone of whom the FA was secretly embarrassed."
Matt Lawton suggests in the Daily Mail: "Before he complained of the FA making his position 'untenable', he perhaps should have reflected on how often he has made the situation untenable for the England management."
Daniel Taylor writes in the Guardian: "Terry's argument is a tenuous one, undeserving of sympathy."
Charlie Wyatt complains in the Sun : "It is still ridiculous that such a courageous, talented player, with at least one major tournament left in him, has decided to quit."
Tony Evans says in the Times (subscription required): "The end of his international career was looming but he will resent it being forced upon him."
