I was thinking about this last week. I think it will be Kelly. Vice Cap will be important, as Kells might not play as much.

Fadz is a leader. But Dabo the Tank Engine could do it. He’ll prob play the most mins too

Hyam after Kelly
Hyam would be my shout for next captain. He’s Mr. Reliable in the middle, rarely ever below a 7 like Kelly so he can demand the same of others.

I also prefer captain to be a CB or DCM. Wide players, flair players and strikers can be up and down and have a more specific role to fulfil whereas those in the middle are more team players and dictators.

Yeah, well a centre half can see the game in front of him too which helps

Kelly and McFadz to remain skipper and vice. Next in line, I’d go with Hyam based on the current crop.

Hopefully, Hamer has got some good leadership qualities too.

Kelly and then hyam for me.... I don't think mcfadz will be in the first team much this season once rose is fit

what about marosi being vice captain, likely to play every league fixture

GK’s should never be captains imo. Need someone who will cover good ground over the pitch, and can lead from the back and front, so prefer CB’s (usually very vocal), or CM.

I’d be very surprised if it was to change. Even though Kelly won’t play every game, there’s no need to change it and often causes unrest (if football manager is anything like the real thing ;))

That said (about the vocal bit) I agree that Hyam is a future captain despite not appearing the most vocal or Atleast not the loudest

So from what we saw last season the order appears to be:
Kelly
Fadz
Godden
Shipley
Rose

Reckon Ostigard may jump in that list too
Quite possibly!

Only guesswork but after that could be hamer, ostigard, marosi, Hyam?I

Sheaf a shout? Could be a case that Hyam simpley doesn't want to captain the team as we all seem to think he could be 4/5th choice?

Doesn’t matter. The English game fixates on the issue of captaincy unlike any other nation. The Italians always give the captaincy to the most experienced player. It’s a mark of respect (and wage bonuses) very little else.

Wearing an armband doesn’t make you a leader. Not being captain doesn’t stop a leader from organising the marking at a corner or putting in an effective tackle.

Yakubu was our best captain that should have been in that case!:ROFLMAO:

No, that’s why you give the armband to the natural leader....
