Captain Not Announced Until Saturday 2.50pm

I think appointing the skipper is a real opportunity which a lot of clubs don't take that seriously. A skipper can be inspirational, I'd love some of that instead of a 'token' skipper. Needs to be someone whose name is one of the first on the team sheet. If Clint was 100% certain starter each week he'd be the man. But sooner or later things are going to change in that department so its a tricky call.

zouma gets a cherry on the cake for signing

Hill, like the poster above mentioned.

Hill is far from guaranteed his place, however well he organises the "defense" so why on earth wd he be captain?

[LoftusRoadLad]

I would say its gonna be Cessi.....just to calm him down

Not very vocal though is he.

Barton, for all his flaws, was a natural leader.

There's no stand-out candidate in the current squad. The only ones are Derry or Hill but there not guaranteed starters so wouldn't qualify.

i think maybe nelson for club captain, i dont know ale so not sure how assertive he is, but im always impressed by his attitude, he just gets on with it.
if he gets a foul he stays up, he takes refs decisions fair or not, if assertive could he be captain on field. (but wouldnt mind JB back one day too)

But then again watching the pre season matches Adel was not half barking out orders ....anyone notice that ?

[QPR71]

yes but... and before i say this, i love and respect adel as much as anyone.....you cant drop to the deck just cos your dribble didnt work
(unless your tactically trying to get a foul of course)..not captain material

Have you heard him talk, his English sucks so how can he motivate his team mates and encourage them, although he is a great player I would be amazed if he gets it.

There is only one player at our club with everything needed to be a great captain, and that's Clint Hill. I really hope it's him, he's an old school type defender with great leadership...Come on Sparky, give the armband to Clint Hill!

Hill will be on the bench most of the season so I doubt it

I think we may see a vice captain stand in for saturday and when he is fit Ale will be named with Nelson as club captain.

The fact that it's not obvious shows weakness.
