Strike 7,612 Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 So?doesn't really stick out as a leader. the captain should be level headed . he has to deal with the referee on behalf of the team. i don't think the ref will see david's sense of humor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The captain of all captains' endorsement is good enough for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Skipper 20,609 Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 I'd love for it to be Luiz. He's one of the biggest personalities in the squad, and if he can really improve the fluency of his English to a top level, I fail to see anyone else leading the troops out.

David is a extrovert yes, but that doesn't he isn't professional. Do you think he isn't professional because he sticks out his tongue in photos or?There isn't evidence? Isn't that Mata situation and the fact that Terry said what he said evidence? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's so much more than just leading a team on the pitch. You're basically representing the club as a whole on and off the pitch when you are the captain. Right now, I don't think Luiz is captain material yet. And with him being a constant joker in the dressing room, there's always a strong possibility that other players may not take him seriously when he's giving orders, barking out instructions on the pitch etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can you assume he isn't mature either? And like I said how does anyone know if he isn't professional? People are saying all these things based on assumptions rather than anything else.

It's just that his crazy or rather jovial, joker and bouncy character don't really make him the perfect candicate to be the next captain. Think he has to tone it down and be more mature first before even becoming the captain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right, we clearly differ in opinion so we'll just agree to disagree. I'm not even saying Luiz should be captain now. I'm suggesting that after JT is fazed out Luiz seems like one of the lead contenders to take the captaincy in my opinion. Mainly because he's very passionate and determined, two of the main attributes a person needs to be a good leader in my opinion. The fact that JT said that he could see Luiz succeeding him says a lot for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 I hate to be the prick who replies with only a pic, but it really says it all:We will never have another captain like JT. He is simply irreplaceable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOSS 372 Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Juan Mata seems more of a leader than any other Chelsea youngster to me. Future Chelsea is :-----------Lukaku------------Hazard - Mata © -Oscar-----------Mikel-Ramires--------Bertrand-Cahill-Luiz-Azpi-------------Courtois---------- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funkyflashman 187 Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 I'd definitely go for Luiz. I don't buy that his personality makes him a bad choice. Sterotyping captains as always serious etc etc doesn't really do it for me.If the other players like him and follow him, then it doesn't matter that he has fun and is a bit eccentric. Hell if I was playing for Chelsea I'd be happy to have him as the skipper Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutcho 8,443 Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 Its extremely hard. For me i want the captain to be someone who loves the club, gives his all, is big and strong, as well as being a great organisor and man motivator. Now they are all not essential of course, but we have been spoiled as we currently have the exact person i described. It will be a tough decision when it has to be made, but i can only really see it as cahill atm, if you ignore the obvious ones who won't be there for the "future captain" role (I.e. Lampard and Cech). Cech will probably still be there but i think the captain should be an outfield player to better deal with players. I have never really though of david luiz as a possibility, though aslong as he is focused well respected by the rest of the squad and is a leader, then i don't see why not. He is seen as the joker in the team, but without giving him a chance i suppose we will never know. Not who i would choose as of right now, though obviously none of us are in a position where we know him anywhere near as much as the people at chelsea do. Nathaniel Chalobah for future Long term captain but that is still some way off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzchap 8,966 Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 What about Mikel?He is pretty composed... And always a starter?Or Cahill?Luiz also a possibility... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kojo 4,676 Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 IMHO the captaincy should be stripped, and IMO the media should choose who to be the next captain, perhaps a liverpool player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
