Thomas Vermaelen - Arsenal Captain

[Syn]

i think Wilshere is too young right now to be captain, but definitely a future captain

The question you have to ask is - would the captaincy mean anything to anyone else? Are they going to do anything different? Are they going to be committed to the club? Or are they just going to use it as an advertising point on their CV when the bigger clubs come knocking. I don't see any reason why Sagna or Vermaelen would be any more committed to Arsenal than Van Persie is.

It would mean something to Wilshere. He'd become more confident in his ability and he'd take more responsibility on the pitch. He's a kid but so was Tony Adams. There is the very minor issue of Jack being dead for the foreseeable future but, as I said, if there is any chance he gets the green light by September, give him the armband.

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.

[Marc Overmars]

Not Chesney.

He needs to wind his neck in first.

[fakeyank]

Vermaelen off next season then?

[alexander]

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.

[Power n Glory]

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.

[Cripps_orig]

If Wilshere wasnt dead, he'd be my tip

But it'll be Verm

[Thierrymon]

no question about it, it should be sagna

He'd get my vote too. No nonsense player who always puts a great shift in.
