[QUOTE="Ragey Erasmus, post: 756788, member: 56232"] I don't think we should focus on 1 captain and instead focus on leaders. Try to get a group of 3 or so players who inspire those around them and let one of them be captain. Also our captain should not be someone who realistically cannot hold their position against opposition. Once Robshaw became captain, he became immune. No 7 was going to get into the squad regardless of how Robshaw performed and we also didn't have a backup. I agree with what others have said, the captain thing should not be a firm ***le for the entire world cup cycle. It should be the same as a position, you earn it and keep it through repeatedly doing well in the role. To think, Robshaw and Johnson were captains for a similar amount of time but who was really a leader? [/QUOTE]
