Next captain has to be Baines for me. Davies in a couple of seasons if he continues to develop

The only place I want Baines is on the bench next season. Offers nothing going gorward, from set pieces, has lost his pace and isn't the best defender either.

Nowhere near the level he was at 3-4 seasons ago, if we want to move up the table the likes of him and Williams have to be squad players.
 
Has been a very very good player for us. Shouldn't have been made captain but as a CB he's been fantastic seeing offmist challengers to his place season after season even after suffering an ACL. Before his injury he was one of the best in the prem without doubt.

Weird, because RoKoe reckons he was one of our best players last season.
I'll go with his judgement and my eyes if ok mate?

Imagine Baines as captain. He let Mirallas make a mug of him by taking the ball away from him as our regular penalty-taker.

Not to mention he shouldn't be a guaranteed starter next year.

Haha what, Baines absolutely cannot be captain, he doesn't even have the plums to take a penalty off someone despite being designated penalty taker. I love him but you shouldn't just give the captaincy to the oldest player in the team at that point just because they've been around a while, that seems to be a commonly held belief.

What are you on about, no plumbs for letting his TEAM MATE take a pen........ffs.
 
I think baines would be a terrible choice as full time captain , he just doesn't strike me as a leader .
Watch him throughout the games he's always moving the players around encouraging and barking orders via the bench....as for this apparent lack of bottle....I can't even begin to make sense of that
