If Collins could consistently produce the performance that he put in at home to Man City last season then he'd be an obvious choice for Captain.
As it stands he may well be the fall-guy shoul dwe able to muster enough loose-change to put in a bid for Dann. Shame really as Collins has probably got about 6 years left in him and has all the tools to be a top CB and leader, just seems to lack the necessary concentration at times. A kind-of, 'Ginger Zat Knight' if you will.
