Jager, I agree. We should use the likes of Trundle with the youth set up. Who better for the kids to work with.
A captain on the field, yes. A club captain, not at all. Ledley King at Spurs, Gary Neville at Manyoo, both good examples of how a player who everyone respects and looks up to can help a club despite not playing all the minutes available. Obviously in an ideal world, your captain would be both, but as good as our other options are no-one can be held up as a shining light of professionalism and attitude like Monk can! I see no reason why Monk shouldn't continue as club captain in general, wearing the armband when he plays, but the rest of the time Williams, for example, could wear it with pride.
