Captain Next Season - poll added

[supertom]

Delph. Hands down. Clark or Westwood as back up. I'd possibly have thrown Guzan into the mix but I'm not a fan of keepers being skippers.

I think Delph is too quiet to be a captain and it may effect his own game, you can see Clark is getting better and better and is always trying to muster the troops. So for me Clark with Westwood as deputy. I too do not like GK'S as skippers. Keep it away from Gabby.

Presuming Vlaar goes it is a two horse race for me. Delph captain and Guzan his deputy.

I've always fancied Westwood as good captain material. He was captain from a very young age when he was at Crewe so he can definitely do it, plus his positioning on the pitch where he often acts as a link between defence and attack means he can have influence across the whole pitch. He's very consistent and has a good mentality as well, two things vital in captains to me.

He isn't a nailed on starter though and hopefully in the summer another midfielder would be purchased and we'd see a midfield of Gil, Delph, Sanchez + New signing.

Where is The Aston Villa player of the season. A player lauded by none other than the famous centre half Jores Okore (and me!)

Where is Alan Hutton if I might be as bold to ask?

With Vlaar not signed yet and looking like he'll leave, I do wonder if the captaincy became part of Delph's contract negotiations?

I don't think it needed to be. He clearly has leadership qualities, has demonstrated loyalty and has become an England player (and looks like he'll be a regular). We don't know what's going to happen with Vlaar but if he did leave, Delph is an obvious candidate.

[JUAN PABLO]

Delphi or Clark

[Gregorys Boy]

As I said in another thread I don't think Guzan would be a bad choice.  But I think possibly Delph he'll need to grow into the role of course.  Of course all this could change if we have a "NEW MANAGER!!!" next season

[Legion]

Ron Vlaar. Injury-prone, inconsistent and wants to play elsewhere for someone else. Goodbye.

Gabby. Currently truly awful. Lost what he used to have. Shame.

Delph. Just re-signed to a tremendous round of applause from us. Give it to him.

[ROBBO]

A captain has to lead by example and Delph hasn't put in a good game since signing his new contrct, i would agree though that we need a decent captain more then ever i just don't see one in the side.

[TheTimVilla]

Clark
