Next Captain

[Deleted member 81382]

Are we expecting Pep to announce today in his presser who the new captain is?

No mention of this in his press conference.

 

[Keeper!]

KDB but he's is not a captain but the nearest we have to one.

KDB has earned it and fully deserves to be the captain of this side. A natural leader, fierce competitor and a world class player, what more can one ask for.

This move will put us in a good position when it comes to his contract extention negotiations

Bit odd that there’s been no announcement regarding this.

They're waiting for Messi obviously.

Give it to Giggsy until the end of the season.

I'd be surprised if Pep did away with the Spanish system of handing it down based on experience/to established deputies.

Dinho for me with KDB as deputy, maybe Kun or Kyle as third?

The players vote and I'm pretty much positive they'll just keep the same hierarchy we've had in previous seasons - Fernandinho, KDB, Aguero, in that order. In the past we've had 4 or 5 captains so it'll be interesting to see if Sterling for example is made one of the official captains.

Didn't mullock mention that Kev is to be made club captain?

 

[Rammy Blue]

Surely it’ll be Kev, fucking pointless giving it Dinho as he isn‘t a first choice player any more.
