Fernandinho's successor as Captain

Postby CTID Hants » Thu Jul 07, 2022 5:20 pm

Personally i reckon it'll be one of the first 3 but for fairness I've listed most othe players except young Phil and the likes of Ake & Zinchenko (like both of them but doubt either be in the hat even if they stay)

Dias, only to save us having to do this next year when gundo leaves.

The lads dont like KDB as captain for some reason so cant see him getting it
derby day the scores were level,
then the goat was fed by neville,
silly boy should know for sure,
feed the goat and he will score!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Duscussing this with our lad over a pint of CruzCampo on holiday in Puerto Banus.

He said KDB but personally when it is given to him, he doesn't concentrate enough on his own game and it seems to fall apart in my opinion. For that reason i chose Ruben, Rodri would be second choice he will more than likely start mist games given his performance last season.

I can see Ruben being captain for years to come.
Dias for the long term

Gotta be Dias for lots of reasons, natural leader.

Gundo #2

KDB albeit brilliant is not capitano material

I've voted Dias, but also think Walker should now be part of the group of captains. He's vital for us and I think his game has matured since working with Pep and the little bit of extra responsibility towards the end of his career may keep him focused

Ruben.

I would give it to Stones to be honest because he scored with his cock in the swamp.

I think you're spot on.
Why are you on holiday in Puerto Banus. Have you suddenly become wealthy?

Kevin for me. Dias was immense in his first season, but to be honest, I think he's pretty much on the same level as Laporte and Stones and it wouldn't be a total shock to me if , due to circumstances (injuries, form, etc.), they would make up the centerback pairing for par tof the season.

Whereas Kev i Kev. He's simply one of the top 3 players in the world in my opinion. He's matured a lot with the years and is definitely ready to carry this team when needed (usually we run like a well-oiled machine and a captain isn't even really needed).

He was prob most obvious as he was vc last year but means we prob have to do it again next year.

Kdb promoted while dias demoted(as such as expected him to be at least vc this year). Interesting way of doing it but guess it works.
