Good luck to Thomas, our new captain.
Hope he's a bit more loyal that the last 2 dicks.

Good luck to Thomas, our new captain.
Hope he's a bit more loyal that the last 2 dicks.
who's our best player now?
wilshere? podolski?
hope not verm as he shouldn't be starting.
Maybe not.
Give it to chamakh. Hopefully he'll fuck off next summer then.
no question about it, it should be sagna
that is a very good shout.Quote:

If there is any chance Wilshere could make it back by September, fit and fine, I'd give him the captaincy. I think it'd help his game and it'd mean a lot to him.
If he is dead, give it to Sagna.
i think Wilshere is too young right now to be captain, but definitely a future captainQuote:

I don't see any reason why Sagna or Vermaelen would be any more committed to Arsenal than Van Persie is.Quote:

Adams got it pretty young and it was the making of him.
Wheelchair is a good shout, you know he's committed to the max. (If he fucks off within the next few years we might as well call it a day)
Wilshere is a good shout.
How about Chesney? It's unusual for a 'keeper to be captain but not unheard of and he's got a great rapour with the fans which most players don't these days.
sagna.
he wont take any sh*t from half hearted mercenaries. he's an intimidating fucker as it is and i think he'll thrive under the responsibility of captaincy, just like gilberto did when he was handed the armband. sagna's an absolute rock and id be proud to see him lead our line.
Not Chesney.
He needs to wind his neck in first.
Vermaelen off next season then?
Oh give it to Podolski. He will want out in 2 years, when his contract has 2 years left.
Do we even need a captain, is it a rule? Because all ours end up ditching us anyway. Which is a bit sad.
Sagna's a moany bitch that takes no responsibility. Not captain material. When shit hits the fan he moans, looks around and blames other players when there is confusion...far from inspiring.
Verms is captain. Vice....Arteta maybe.
If Wilshere wasnt dead, he'd be my tip
But it'll be Verm
He'd get my vote too. No nonsense player who always puts a great shift in.Quote:

Verm has that glare about him but it would mean him starting every game and I'm not sure sold on him being the a shoe in at CB
not an easy one this.....I always liked Song but he is far too quiet! Arteta?
ThisQuote:

you need a player who is adept at their job or they will garner no respect.
so that completely rules out vermalean and chesney.
What about Koscielny or Mertesacker?
It'll be whoever wants out next, presumably.
We've just contracted TV, so it's gotta be someone on dodgy ground.
He'll probably give it to Theo to try and make him stay.
:ilt:
Maybe it will remind him that he's a CB at the same time....could be perfect...Vermaelen as captainQuote:

Wait til he gets the armband.Quote:

He's Bergkamp-like in his coolness. :bow:
I'm sick of trying to find the new Bergkamp in RVP. Arteta is my new Bergkamp.

Don't forget we already have an international captain here.
Step forward Captain Ramsey.
:lol:
:rose:
Id give it to Diaby- he has been at the club quite long now and is very loyal and has never tried to leave. Even if he had been able to walk, he would not have approached other clubs about a possible move. He would also be well-placed from the stands to get a good perspective of how we play.
