England manager Fabio Capello believes his side have been given one of the toughest draws in qualifying for Euro 2012.

Capello, who sacked John Terry as captain on Friday, and his team will face Switzerland, Bulgaria, Wales and Montenegro.

The Italian said: ''I think the worst groups were group A and group G and we got group G.

''It's a tough group because each game will be strong games to play.''

Capello refused to answer a question about Rio Ferdinand, who has replaced Terry as skipper.

He said: ''No questions about John Terry or the captain. I will speak with Rio, I have spoken to John Terry.''

On England's opponents, Capello added: ''Wales are one of the best teams now, although they are very young.

''Switzerland have qualified for the World Cup and are one of the best teams at the moment.''
