What has Vermaelen done to earn the captaincy? He was injured for all of last season. His place in the team is not guaranteed, at least it shouldn't be. I just don't see the logic in giving the armband to somebody who hasn't earned it. RVP should be captain.
Why don't you give it to someone who won't go on to a bigger club like... ermmm...
someone like....
...
errr
Ahh forget it
Bad idea giving the armband to RvP. Nothing against the bloke but....he's in the wrong part of the park to command things.
A central defender should be captain. Or am I just too old and old fashioned?

Denilson?
=======================
Denilson is out on loan
We need the armband to go to a player who will be playing week in week out. So I say Eastmond
Shearer was a pretty good captain where did he play again?

Thank you Batmanu. I'll ask some tomorrow.
Oh, by the way it's SIR Dennis. No offence taken tho.
"Shearer a pretty good captain?"

He left nothing on the pitch, or the dressing room, or a tip at the St James' Park cafe.
He left nothing anywhere ever... except a fine dusting of grit.
I considered Shearer before posting the article, but I would say he was the exception rather than the rule. TH14 is one of the best players I have ever seen, he certainly lead by example, but probably got the captaincy because there was no-one else suitable at the time.
There's also a worrying trend of our most recent captains leaving us to play for Barcelona!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ugh, where are my manners
"There's also a worrying trend of our most recent captains leaving us to play for Barcelona!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Perhaps Squillaci should be captain?

Gilberto was suitable than Henry but Wenger gave it to his compatriot because he wanted to keep Henry for another season,it worked but not wasnt good move.

TV and RVP are both injured prone imo. The captaincy should go to either this group Song,Sagna, Sheney,Ramsey.
