Well, said in Terry thread.

His impending departure leaves the question.. What next?

Ivanovic is looking like he's signing on and is VC. Cahill is also signed on and could see more games now..

Zoumazga

Looking at the poll list, I realized there is absolutely nobody fit to be a captain of a top team, no leaders. For a few years at least wearing the armband will be a formality, because somebody has to, but in reality we will have no captain if JT does go, so might as well give it to Mourinho's loverboy if he stays.

Zouma. (If he recovers)

Azpilcueta. Brilliant in the media, passionate on the pitch and an absolute tremendous footballer.

Azpilicueta lacks leadership qualities. Though a great defender but he lacks the quality to make others work, raise their spirits etc. Zouma is just too young . For me it should be Cahill

Cahill shoudn't be starting next season.

Nahh.. Willian seems like a shy guy, we need a guy who can shout at his teammates, someone like Costa, maybe Fabregas.

Danny Murphy makes prediction about next Chelsea captain

Danny Murphy questions whether Branislav Ivanovic would be the right choice to become next Chelsea captain

40 votes for Cesc. Are people blind or just naive that he can succesfully lead us as captain?

Don't think it's outrageous at all. You often see him displaying leadership qualities in the pitch. Clapping on teammates and encouraging them. Telling players where to be in certain situations. Since José left he's been leading with his play as well. Ideally you want your captain to be the heartbeat of the team in the middle of the park which he is.

If JT does indeed leave I wouldn't be against Cesc as captain at all. If Ivanovic is the choice then he's 100% nailed on to start every match which we cannot afford to have. Cesc is really the only alternative.

Yeah thats more due to fact that we dont have any other good leaders as alternatives not that Cesc is actualy a good leader. Which is quite sad realy after seeing we had Terry, Lamps, Ballack, Cech at same time. 

Just because Cesc can talk on pitch and organize should that make him leader? To be leader you need to put club before yourself. Sacrifice yourself. Have history with club. 

Every time when we are  losing and then I see Cesc just wank around the pitch like he couldnt give two fucks says enough that he is not a leader and even less a captain. Not that others are more suitable either but Cesc is no captain to start with. Would rather see Cahill or Azpi right now.

I guess I just don't think it's a huge deal. Are we better or worse as a team if Cesc is the captain? Don't think so. Are better or worse if Ivanovic is next season? Well, yes, because that means he'd still be starting every match. Same with Cahill. If he's playing every match next season we'll be hamstringing ourselves. No to him as well for me.

Azpi doesn't strike me as captain material at all.

True but I dont see Cesc to be here for longer time. He is not dynamic enough for either CM or CAM.

So with two defenders recruited it looks a tad more likely that Iva and JT could both be on the bench at some point, was just wondering who would be considered as a captain by Conte then. 

Fabregas obviously isn't a starter for him, Cahill isn't assured to be a starter either when Zouma gets back. 

Thus I'm really considering Hazard as a good choice, he is obviously Belgium captain at the moment so he's getting more and more responsibility on his shoulders, at the moment he also looks to be more serious and focused than ever, think it would really benefit him to show him his true value and importance to the team, he could easily gain huge additional confidence in such case.

Hazard is obviously a great player but he just doesn't have leader's attributes that captain needs to have.
