Future Chelsea Captain

[Kieran. 6,317]

Azpilicueta for me no question

[Stingray 9,441]

Changed my vote to Courtois.

Really? Did not say that coming mate. Never contemplated it but I can see why. He is a warrior, though young and fugly.

New names added into the poll (can't believe Costa wasn't in it...).

Costa is a warrior ?? not a captain type

[Ryan Fong 2,776]

Azpi aka Dave for me. Devoted, passionate, manages multiple languages, diehard fighting spirits, you just can't ask more.

Fabregas' form concerns me, and he was the person who I had ear-marked as the new VC. The responsibility would suit Thibaut, I think, and would help him mature.

Personally i think Tibo's hot.

My vote still stays with Ivanovic, but I'm not sure how much longer he will play or be in the first team after Terry retires.

Azpi for me. the captain needs to be one of the players who is consistently good and he is that.

at present one of only a very few. I expect the majority of those currently out of form to get it back but the only alternatives to him are Matic or Costa for me but Costa plays a position that is rotated more than fullback. a good DM is like a skipper anyway and when Makalele was with us I felt of him as our skipper,the way he would co-ordinate his team mates.i don`t know how much that would show up on tv but on many occasions during games I would find myself watching him directing his team mates when he was off the ball.

I like Azpi as a candidate because he is a good blend of competitive and with good composure.i hope he will do that at RB where I think he would offer more offensively but either side he can be a leader.

Just a note - Ivanovic's contract expires at the end of this season.

[CurlyHairLikeLuiz 1,625]

Dave and then Gazza for me, followed closely by Courtois.

Ty for reminding me of that. Needed that injection of good news today .

Just pray the club do not offer Mourinho's love child a new contract!

[zakhov 253]

Costa. It would be interesting to see how he approaches the ref with the language barrier.

Yes. He needs to be rotated and I'm sure that then he'll show how good he can be.

Same thing with Terry for the last few years. Doesn't mean anything.

They better not.

OR it could be like Lampard and Cole, who were both released after being deemed no longer good enough for the team.

If Mourinho and the board still have any logic in them, then they would not be giving Ivanovic a new contract, not with the way he has been playing.
