    No, because Lahm was the German captain in 2014
    Dino Zoff 1982 and Gianpiero Combi 1934 were

    I was expecting this since he signed his new contract.

    Obvious choice for me, so no issues whatsoever from me.

    Good luck to Richard, let's hope he can lead us to promotion

    Can't see ROD doing this!



    I just don't like keepers being captains as they don't tend to be involved in group warm up or the game.

    The upside (if any) is continuity. Number one keepers would normally be the first name on the team sheet

    Hope? That word again. Just shows the lack of experienced winners in the side. Wish him luck though.

    Don't mind admitting i had a lump in my throat watching that. Thats inspiration, dragging your team off its arse, a never sat die attitude that has your team mates in awe.

    A true leader.

    Characters with fight, not arrogant muppets like BRE and his BAME stop picking on me bolllox. Still some rubbish to get rid of before our time again, maybe one more season and an end to Covid.

    Settle for R O’D in the absence of a clear midfield leader. The guy is a motor mouth who has a critical appraisal of the game. Go R O’D give them grief, guidance, support, critical appraisal and a great dispersal of upfield balls.

    I count myself fortunate to be involved with a couple of projects he's very close too. By his own admission there a plenty of better players around, but few as genuine.
    And in this instance he's 100% correct

    Let's hope he's as bad of a captain as Manuel Neuer.

    Honestly,you can clearly see who has never played football,the captain has a word in the changing room a gee up in the warm up and the toss up,the coach shouts his orders from the touchline,some people just like a moan over nothing: unamused:
