Who should be captain next season?

[winteriscoming]

Seeing as Cifuentes likes to play and develop young players I’d like to see Nelson given the captaincy. 
Anyone else who should be in the running for it? Nobody really stands out. 
Possibly Ricardo. 

[Muzzy_no7]

Ricardo. 
 

Winks VC.

 

Nelson certainly in the leadership group. 

[foxfanazer]

Can only be Ricky 

 

Reckon Winks would think he should be as he has an over inflated opinion of himself as a player 

[PAULCFC]

Ricky P

[Dunge]

Another vote for Ricky P.

Winks the same player who hasnt looked bothered since we lost Enzo? Not the kind of personality we want to platform within the club.

Would prefer Winks to piss off to be honest

I’m not sure with Winks. Seems to believe he’s better than he actually is. 
Nelson for me. Won’t mean anything but King gave him the armband in the pre season game against Peterborough.

Difficult to say with much confidence without having much of an idea what their personalities are like but I agree the obvious one is Ricardo. Hamza has worn the armband on a few occasions I think so despite his track record of being a bit of a bell and not a particularly good player, he might be in the conversation for vice captain. Nightmare scenario is Coady stays and gets given it, can't be arsed hearing any more about what a brilliant talker and leader he is.

Do people expect Ricardo to be available often enough to be an effective captain?

 

Nelson is a very interesting suggestion. Not quite Nish-esque, but getting there. If he's going to stay, and we aim to build a side around him for years to come, then that's the forward-thinking option. Not an extremely injury-prone 33 year-old who, it's been implied, wants to leave.

Not Choudhury

He also gave it to Choudhury as well and whilst I appreciate he's been a Leicester a while, he's hardly captain material IMO.

If he stays, I'd go with Ricardo. Winks was good last time out in the Championship. Would be happy with him as vice captain, even though he let himself down somewhat last season. Be interesting to see who MC sees as the leader of the pack. 

[winteriscoming]

Nelson has a season behind him in the championship and got glowing praise from Rowett at Oxford. 
To me it’s a no brainer. 
So expect it to be Ayew. 

[davieG]

Depends if it's as a Club Captain or on the pitch and able to motivate players help with coaching instructions.

 

Ricardo - Captain

Nelson - Vice Captain.

 

[Foxes96]

Ricardo. 
 

Nelson doesn’t need the extra pressure at that young age when he’s trying to establish himself.

[coolhandfox]

Ricardo, Nelson VC.

[UniFox21]

Ricardo captain, you'd think a Ndidi/Winks as vice captain 

[adejo92]

Ricardo for me..

 

Need him as a regular starter first though.

[Tommy G]

Is there some kind of leadership quality I’ve missed from Nelson? Why would we put that on a 21yr old who’s barely played for the club. Bonkers

[FoxesFourLife]

Faes

Vestergaard - VC

[Simonb]

Riccy to be captain with Jacob and Nelson being the youthful leadership group backing him up

Beat me to it. Let the lad actually break into the first team before asking him to lead it 

 

Obvious route is Ricardo Pereira with Harry Winks as vice. Wouldn't be against giving Mavididi a bit of extra responsibility as vice.

He’s young, up and coming and half decent …..let’s make him captain. Jeez

They made him captain for the friendly, means they see something in him no?
