I just watched west brom hammer us and reina, carra, skertl, agger gerrard, lucas, suarez and even allen were all on that pitch and FAILED to settle things down and get a grip of themselves. I don't see any captaincy potential in these guys compared to a "great leader of men" like say an adams or terry or any other drunken english womanising gambling whoring individuals that we could mention. This started me thinking, we need to get back to the days where razor ruddock or julian "bite yer legs when me knees are ok" Dicks was on the pitch or better yet the guvna ince. Its pretty clear we need less talent and more kicking and gobbing off in this role and to that end i humbly submit that Andy Carroll be made captain immediately.... we all know Andy loves to party which is obviously perfect in any captain but he's also all swinging elbows and full of kicking out not to mention gobbing at the ref every 30 seconds or so... hell if we don't sign john terry then andy's THE man for the job... future England captain in fact. discuss
This could have easily gone on the other captaincy thread. What is the difference between Adams and Terry compared to Carroll? They were both good enough to play every available game for their clubs at the high level expected.

Indeed.. another fine reason to have a strong "english" captain rather than these weak kneed foreign boys and technical types. We need someone who'll curse at a camera, snort coke off a goal line, chase skertl in night clubs, gob all over refs the minute they put a whistle to thier lips and most of all we need someone who thinks nothing of taking credit for others work or breaking someones leg..... I ASK YOU WHEN DID GERRARD LAST BREAK SOMEONE'S LEG!!!
*cough* training, charlie Adam *cough* I'd never wish injury upon any player and the above comments were made in jest
indeed.. bullet points make everything highly professional looking and therefore mean i'm right. seeing i used none i must be joking. but its a great suggestion to put the armband on charlie adam.... he's broken up gareth bale and ended his career twice so he'd be a great captain... if he were english and not a Scottish jesse who can't to to training without six layers of thermals and a woolly hat.
I said 'I hope that's his season over for us'... which it did turn out to be. Felt a tad bad afterwards and I think it was you who told me to hang my head in shame.
Andy Carroll, Tony Adams and John Terry have one thing in common, they've all been arrested for being twats. Adams is the only one however to do porridge.
