Chelsea star Gary Cahill can be Englands rock in Rio. THE last sighting of England at Wembley featured Per Mertesacker climbing above a static defense in white to score the goal which inflicted the nation’s first back-to-back home defeats in 36 years last November. Four months on from the 1-0 setback against Germany, Roy Hodgson put a firm block a few weeks back on the idea that John Terry might be recalled from international retirement to steady the gathering worries at the back. So now the stage is clear of clutter in the public mind for the coming World Cup. Now, the player who gets the benefit of playing alongside Terry most weeks for Chelsea can assume the mantle worn so uncompromisingl y by his club skipper whenever he represented his country. Gary Cahill has been backed to become a similarly dependable and imposing defensive figure for both his club and his national side. - [via Express.co.uk]
