Captain.

Only person with his heart on his sleeve is Taylor. Not saying he would make the best captain but I can't think of any other fucker.

 

Only other person I can think of is Duff. I know Harper has been here a long time but I'm not a fan of keepers being captains.

only candidate by a county mile is Barton. Rest are sheep.

And you wonder why people think you're a wind-up merchant :) Barton ffs.

I know loads don't like him, but he is still the most creative AND passionate player at the club. I think he will redeem himself within the first six games of the season.

 

Thats my hope anyway. (He could still explode again).

 

But apart from him I struggle to see any vocal leaders on the pitch. I just cant see Smith playing and i always prefer it when the captain is in the middle and in a postion to communicate with all the players.

 

Even if he is not the captain, he will be the organiser on the field regardless.

 

Suppose Hughton knows that if he makes him captain, Shearer will kick him up and down the training field if he gets in.

I think Barton is a canny player but one thing I wouldn't label him as is 'creative.'

Can you imagine Barton in the Championship, man? The stick he'd get would force him to murder in the first six games.

I think the stick actually doesn't bother him.

Wasn't the whole Alonso sending off brought on by Alonso giving him some stick? Or was it just frustration or what have you? I can't say I remember.

Alonso 'done him' earlier on or one of our players and nothing came of it. So obviously he thought he would get him back. Still think that wasn't a sending off btw. Just that he was a prick for getting himself into that situation.

Bit of both. Anyway, I reckon he'll get kicked up a height in the Championship which will make him lose his blob. Everyone seems to think he's nails for chinning a kid hardly out of school and a French tart but he's hardly Jimmy Schoular. I think he might get a fright. Should he stay.
