Next Captain

[maccadon]

Next season maybe.think pep is grooming him for the role with amount of times stones and pep have been deep in conversation mid match

 

[Citizen in Pakistan]

next season, he has all the attributes to lead both club and country

 

[Blue Smarties]

He will be our future captain, but not this season.

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

I agree it may be a bit soon this season, but he doesn't have the language barrier that some of the others have.

 

[RandomJ]

Too soon but I can easily see him being our captain for years and years.

 

[McfcInsideMe]

No. For me no.
For future of course, but now no

Don't really get the importance we, in this country, place on the Captain. If you're a leader, then you're a leader, you shouldn't need a silly title and an armband to show your leadership skills on the pitch. However, as a team we do lack genuine leaders.

 

[razman]

in a couple of seasons

His performances suggest that he is capable but I don't know enough about the lad to know whether he has the personality...the likes of Kompany and zabba are born leaders which is clearly obvious

Stones certainly leads by example on the pitch in the way he plays but has he got the character to be a capt....Pep certainly seems to send a lot of messages through him not he side lines so maybe that suggests he trusts Stones to get his instructions across to everyone else.
