We're gutted to lose Klaassen

[davek]

There must have been a non Brit captain, even if it was for just a game or 2.

But either way.

Like this lad.

Good point. I wonder if Gravesen or Carsley or Pistone or Pienaar or some such player did?

Im not going to have a discussion on the borders of the BRITISH ISLES mate.

Just admit that your being a pedantic anus and we can all get back to rejoicing at Davy K, the chosen 1, not Dave K, the, well, lets leave it there.

Stop calling him Davy K. It's upsetting.

Besides, it's the Milky Bar Kid.

Dunno. Add Cahill to that rogues gallery as well.

He's Irish. He chose the RoI to represent.

Afternoon Blues,

An English Ajax supporter here. Yes, Englishman following a Dutch club. My auntie and uncle moved to Amsterdam when I was 12 and took me to my first game in 2002 vs Den Bosch. It was my later teens/early twenties when I really fell in love with the beautiful club from Amsterdam.

I'm absolutely gutted about losing Davy Klaassen to you guys but he's gone to a great club rather than just for the cash tinted glasses. I think under Koeman will be the making of him in the Premier League.

I'm part of the only English Ajax website on the net and one of our writers has put a piece together for you guys on what exactly you can expect from your new signing. Hope you like it, let me know your thoughts.

All the best for next season, I'll be following you guys and Davy!

I can understand losing your Captain!

Howard?

Dunno. Add Cahill to that rogues gallery as well.

Yep. I cant see Cahill being here that long and not wearing the armband at least once.

 

[roydo]

Howard?

Artetta?

 

[davek]

Howard?

Yeah, same thing as Cahill. It must have happened.

He's Irish. He chose the RoI to represent.

Ok i agreed with you on Peter Farrell simply because he is Irish as in born on the land of Ireland.

But Carsley accepting to play for Ireland means he would be a dual national

So you are right he is Irish but he is still British as he was born in England and still probably holds his British passport.

Howard captained Everton in a 3–3 draw with Chelsea on December 12, 2009

Now lets focus on Davy K.

Yobo might have too.

He was vice captain wasn't he? So chances are he served as Captain

Anyway, it means CLUB CAPTAINS, not people that have been Captain once or twice.

The OS has a list.

The Blues have had 46 appointed Club captains, from the very first in the Club's history, Nick Ross - to current day skipper, Phil Jagielka.
