Not seen leadership from any other player this season. Or much last season other than Hill. Think Wallace is an average left back never mind captain. Alves has 90 caps and has played at a higher level than any other player in the squad. I think players should be inspired by captain. Don't see it with Wallace, anticipate it with Alves. I also like a captain to be a dominant CH or a hardy cunt CM like say Souness who can sort shit out. Covers it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Specky Forum Organiser 63,959 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 You don't need to be captain to be a leader, would be very disrespectful to Wallace to strip him of it for someone who's never kicked a ball for us IMO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can be a leader without being captain. But shouldn't be captain without being a leader. Wallace deserves credit for staying but imo is a poor captain. What did he demonstrate by way of qualities when we meekly got pumped out of Europe. We need the best men for each job. Including captain. I think Alves is more likely to lead by example and demand more from others. 90 odd caps and the experience he has suggests the fact he's not played for us shouldn't be a deterrent from being made captain.

I'd say he leads by example, off the park anyway. I don't think Wallace should be guaranteed a start but he should be the club captain until he decides to leave/retire as far as I'm concerned.

Happens all the time in football. If club captain not in team, manager appoints a team captain for the game in question. John Terry remained as Chelsea club captain last season for instance.
