This season will be the first season since 09/10 where we've went into the season with the same captain as the one season before (even in that season we changed captain within a month).

I know with the tevez saga it was almost a forced change but its another thing which goes to show how much of a transition the club has went through to get from where we were to where we are now

For many yaya is our most valuable player. I agree. After vinny he is.

In terms of valuable players we could list the first 11. In terms of absolutely irreplaceable: Yaya, Tevez, Zabaleta. There are no other players like them.

Tevez? Zaba? Tevez still needs to prove that he likes City and that he wants to stay. Richards, according to me is way better than Zabaleta.

I am not talking ability nor am I talking about proving anything. I am talking about finding a direct replacement for them. Tevez does for our team what no other player does, his terrier like attitude mixed with his level of ability is unique. Zabs plays 8 different positions and doesn't moan, doesn't bitch and never gives less than 100%, he is valuable beyond measure and maybe in the right back position Micah might be better in your opinion(I honestly couldn't say one is better than the other), but that's not what I wrote...just what you thought I wrote.

It was interesting to see the Lesbian captain us for one of the trial games. Good to see that he is considered to have those qualities. He's bulked up too.
