British number one and world number four Andy Murray believes that he and the other players should have a say in the choice of a potential new Davis Cup captain.

John Lloyd's position is under serious threat after a dismal defeat in Lithuania which dropped GB to within one more loss of a place in the lowest tier of the Davis Cup.

However, Murray also believes that some positivity is now needed to reverse GB's ailing fortunes.

He told the media in the USA: "It wasn't one of British tennis' best days, but I think the most important thing now is that we're obviously at a pretty low point and I'm fed up reading just negative stuff all the time - the constant bashing.

"There needs to be some more constructive things said, people actually coming forward with ideas of what you can do to improve, how we can get better as a nation.

"We need to have a system in place where all the coaches are teaching the same way. We can't have like ten different nations having their input into how the kids play tennis.

"And there needs to be passion. We need to have people coaching the young kids who love British tennis and love their country, they can teach them hard work and passion."
