Jags Still Captain?

[Gwaters]

Just read that Carrick appointed Captain in the wake of Rooneys departure, he is their longest serving player. Does Rooney become captain for you or stick with Jags?

Not that arsed. None of the options feel 100% perfect as I'm not thrilled on giving it back to a returning player without him earning it a bit and Jagielka is a meh captain. Just a piece of cloth at the end of the day.

There's a poll still going at https://www.grandoldteam.com/forum/threads/who-should-be-our-next-captain-for-2017-18.94563/page-10 about who should be captain next season, but that was before Rooney joined.

It's a tough call mate, because I don't see either Jags or Rooney being automatic choices for the first eleven, and I've always liked the idea of the skipper being on the pitch if he's fit. If he wasn't crocked at the moment, I'd chuck the armband in Seamus' direction.

It will be an interesting situation as I don't think he's an automatic starter either. Shouldn't be captain if he isn't guaranteed to start every game. Or most games, I should say.

Jags won't be playing, Coleman injured,Rooney for skipper.

If seamus hadn't been injured I would 100% give it to him.

Perhaps schneiderlin?

Rooney nailed on. Koeman & Rooney's comments over the last 48 hours have hinted about his leadership / influential role on and off the field

ROOOOOONEY.......ROOOONEY......ROOOOONEY.......

Give it to Wazza what the hell

He's a fit

Rooney Schneiderlin Coleman for me all leaders on pitch

Baines should have been on list but mirralas would just take the arm band off him
