Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson supports Fabio Capello's decision to comment on the FA's decision to strip John Terry of the England captaincy.

Sir Alex Ferguson has supported Fabio Capello's decision to speak out against the FA's action of stripping John Terry of the England captaincy.

Capello spoke to Italian TV about the decision and said that he "completely disagreed".

"There's nothing wrong with having an opinion," Ferguson told Sky Sports News.

"I think what'll happen in the next few days is there'll have to be a coming together of the Football Association hierarchy and Fabio Capello because he's the team manager and the importance over the position.

"Without question the most important person at a football club is the manager, no question about it."

Capello has reportedly breached his contract by commenting on the issue.
