Another one of those decisions that are strange we’ve seen in the last 2 years.
He's already been wearing the armband - it's just been confirmed that Laca will continue until the end of the season.
Probably not a bad choice for now... take some time to select a new captain for next year. Might now be so wise to throw the responsibility to a young player at this stage of the season.
Why do we need time to select a new captain, it’s pretty clear who are the best candidates and they will become captain in the summer.
He’s not a leader and the fact he can’t see what’s happening is also a problem as is the fact he’s out of contract.
We seem to pick the wrong captains time and time again IMO.
Gabriel and Tierney are not young, Gabriel is 24, Tierney is almost 25.
