We've had great characters and leaders during our league winning campaigns over the last 7-8 years. Some of them have already left (Hart, Zaba, Toure, Kompany...Delph was vocal in the dressing room too), others are going to leave over the next 20 months: Dave, Ferna and Kun.
So, who can become the new leaders of the team?
Naturally, Kevin is going to be among them. But there are tougher "bastards" than him:
Ederson: once he learns English sufficiently well, he can be among the leaders.
Laporte: think he is going to captain the team: gives his all, is tough and class at once.
Rodri: highly intelligent and confident, needs another 1-2 years and will be one of the leaders.
Raz is a top man but not sure he can motivate the team-mates as well as the mentioned above.
Gabby is too young, same with Foden.
Thoughts?
