DisgracefulFA Cup final and he’s just jogging back on the second goal. Can’t get over the lack of effort he displayed. He’s been shit this season and was shit again today. Lazy and cost us vs Madrid. Lazy and cost us today. Was once world class but is way, way off those levels now. It’s over.
The manager should be picking the captain not the team and it should be settled for years not changing every seasonTell that to the first team squad that voted for him.
Agreed. Even if he thinks it he should have been a bit more tactful in answering the question. Fucked me off.What he said on England winning the euros over the treble leaves a very bitter taste for me.

Can't really argue with that as this is how we choose our captain.Tell that to the first team squad that voted for him.
You also can't argue with the fact its absolutely bizarre to choose a captain who was pretty much on the cusp of leaving last summer.

He's a thick **** in the same way that Micah is. Doesn't really know what he's saying and doesn't really articulate things very well.Agreed. Even if he thinks it he should have been a bit more tactful in answering the question. Fucked me off.
Bizarre choice of captain, who was minutes away from leaving last summer, who has had very questionable performances over the last 2 or 3 seasons, and who carries more baggage than an A380.
Fuck off you bellend - worst captain we've had since the takeover
The guy is fucking thick haha

Walker is someone who tries to come across all intellectual and a deep thinker when in reality he is just a complete moron and should keep his mouth shut as he really has nothing to offer off the pitch

It seems to have worked perfectly fine for us though. Pep knows what he's doing. Its the perfect way to destroy the dressing room power play we see in most clubs, the idea is that the players made you their captain and they can strip you off your power if you get carried away.The manager should be picking the captain not the team and it should be settled for years not changing every season
When the manager appoints the captain, it gives the captain a sense of being the anointed one and the teammates start thinking of him as the second in command to the manager, the manager's right hand man and next thing you know, you have a good old "old boys club" building up in your dressing room, players start trying to get on the good side of the captain, yes men turning a blind eye to the misconduct of the captain and his trusted associates and before you know it, you end up with a John Terry, Rio, Stevie G situation where a player and his loyalists hold the entire team ransom.
Pep is right on this one.
