Giving Dunne the responsibility might help him get his act together and get him back to his best.

agreed with given as 2nd option -petrov wont start often enough in my view to be captain and as said above dunne may respond well to the responsibility.

Could use the same argument for Ireland.

Seamus is vastly experienced, a model pro, and certain to play if fit.

I'd give it him.

As catering consultant, maybe.

The only way that ****** should wear the armband is if every other Villa player on the pitch is mysteriously stuck by lightning.

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.

Fully agree with you, other than the Zat Knight comparisons - I think he's a much better player.

Except Ireland has no experience as captain and does not come across as a potential leader.

Can we put you down as a 'maybe'?
