Ireland seems to be filling in right now, I thought it would be Barry, but you would think he would have worn the armband in preseason at some point if that was the case.

A mistake possibly?
What he said was 'here's the captain' meaning team GB.
I thought the same until Adebayor and Kolo took their turn and were also introduced as the captain

I think it should be open until the man worthy of the captaincy comes to the fore and shows good leadership, communication, organisation, motivation, leading by example etc etc! Wouldnt be a bad thing to have no captain named for a few games, just let whoever toss the coin and shake hands with the ref until we know who is to be the leader of the new Manchester City!
Dunne has not been a good captain IMO he doesnt have enough captain qualities!
