Next Captain

[lee-mcfc]

tevez please score a couple today!!

He didn't talk to him he just tossed the armband in the dressing room and Carlos won the scrap. The Toure bros lost out because they were fighting each other, Richards thought it was not shiny enough.

I don't normally believe in a striker being the captain, but I think this could be a masterstroke by Bob.

 

[bluemoon32]

Don't think it matters who is captain, they only call heads or tails and wear an armband.
Be interesting to see if his English has got better in the after match interviews.

 

[Bobby4Mayor]

I suppose Tevez is one of the only options due to how few players have automatic starting places. Congrats Carlos.

 

[tommytheblue]

always leads by example, thats enough for me.

Where will City finish this year? Big nose "5th" as he thinks the dippers are going to be ahead and as for that Merson fella - nuff said!!

 

[Enjoying being a Blue]

Interesting choice. If it works well we could be Champions.

 

[sneakitawc]

would like to see city start a tradition of giving the armband to the longest-serving player in the starting line-up.

It will do him good and hopefull re inspire him if reporst are to be belived about him lacking motivation . Good decision and good for kolo again looked a better player maybe a bit of pressure taken off him ?

 

[ello_jo]

Left the reds and became our captain, true, and I mean TRUE, legend!

Question - Do you seriously think the "reports" are true ? That Mancini would even select Tevez to play if he was lacking motivation, let alone make him club captain ? Really ?

Why bother reading the guff, or listening to the sky "pundits" who talk from deep up their own arses ?

 

[Clubber]

What are peoples thoughts on this.

One, if not the best player at the club and will play every game when fit. Shows effort and commitment in spades and performs in the big games.

Yet his English isn't the best yet (Last time i heard anyway), and many others didn't seem to put his name forward when there was a thread about being captain.

 

[Timmmmahhhh]

I'm not a fan of forwards being the captain, a defender, or even a midfielder, is able to see much more of the game.

 

[colinbellsboots]

not a good idea if your captain cant comunicate, with his team mates, unless they can do it by sign lanuage.? yaya toure all day long IMO

 

[Project]

i loved his endeavour today, so I dont really mind. seems to take the weight of Kolo's shoulders too

 

[Juddaman83]

I'm undecided.

Today I think it hindered his game as he seemed too determined to get involved and left us with nobody up top
