What is the point in having a goalkeeper as Captain??
Willis is by far the best player in recent games but that shouldn't be a reason for him to be Captain. A Captain should be a leader on the pitch and encourage his teammates when the going gets tough.
this is a debate that was had early on in the season, but to repeat what I thought then, I don't see a leader out there.
I'd prefer a centre back, as they see the whole game in front of them, and they're in the midst of it, but despite the fact he was Shaw Lane skipper for a whole, Qualter is hardly a leader, he barely ever says or shouts anything.
When Willis was suspended, the senior player, Davies, took the armband, but same again, nothing verbal from him either, so despite the abundance of experience, he's not a leader.
If you remember in the pre - season games, various players were tried, none of which are considered more worthy than Willis.
So, in the absence of anyone deemed better, Willis has kept the armband.
Does anyone else for the bill? Do we have a natural leader? I don't think we do, and maybe that is some of the problem? There's nobody currently with an ounce of passion and desire, and that's what's needed.
