I can't believe this is even worthy of discussion.

vinnie is our captain. He leads with the respect of the other players, with calm, with grace, with diplomacy, with eloquence, with leadership skills. He is unequalled and probably the best captain City have had for many years, if not all time. You will be hard pushed to name a team captain better skilled than Vinnie in any team team around the globe. We are honoured to call him ours.

Pab has blue blood in his veins. He has fought for us, bled for us and been a stalwart in defence feared by many. He's a great workhorse, dedicated and committed to City. But it doesn't make him a better captain than Vinnie.

Now put your beers down and go to bed. Tomorrow you will see the error of your ways.

A bit patronising in tone , but I agree with the sentiment

I don't see VK leaving atm, but if he is injured next season, Pab Zab has got to be the man to take the armband
 
I love Zabba as we all do.

But, I hope Vinny is our captain of this club for the next 5-10 years

The guy is immense, both on and off the pitch

Zabaleta isn't first choice right-back so cannot be captain.

Its not 2011 anymore... Zabbs is first choice every day of the week... However, would send out a bad signal to switch captains, so it wont happen. But if Vinny is injured or for some reason leaves, Zabbs is the stand out candidate...

no he's not. he got in by default this season


He's probably started 90% of games in the last 18 months... Id say thats pretty much first choice...
 
Our captain is Kompany end of, as long as he is here he should be captain he is the most natural leader in our backline and in my opinion a centre back makes for the best captain because they are at the heart of the part of the team that need to be organized and can see who is and isnt sticking to the task . And Zabaleta was in the team of the year ffs how could he not be our starting right back?! A new manager with a new system could change that but at the minute Richards and Maicon are a way of Zabaleta's standard.
 
I agree. I've not been completely convinced by Vinnie's performances this season.
Zabba would get the nod for me. "Zabman" is testament to his commitment for our club.
