No worries Dele, just promise to cut out the nutmegs and tricks, and put a solid shift in, and we'll back your captaincy.

Although, Kane, and Dyer may be ahead in maturity and would get the nod imho.

I'd also put Vertonghen, Lloris and Alderwerield ahead of Dele for the captain's armband

Once he’s a regular starter, as I believe he will be, I’d like to see Lamela given a chance. He has all the qualities to be a leader on the pitch.

He told Danny Rose to aim high for the Premier League title. I think he really loves the club. He's been underestimated and underappreciated at every turn by many.

Really? I think he’s been overappreciated if I’m honest.

We're two circles of a Venn diagram that are never going to overlap.
Im with Sweetsman. Although he looks a little ungainly when he plays - he is really effective. He sets a really good example on drive both on and off the ball. Most plaudits go to Erikson on creativity - but Lamela has a really incisive creativity. In the 'flow of a move' his passing often places the ball direct to feet, half a second quicker, and in really dangerous positions. Lately he has been scoring. Now is the time to really appreciate him.
