Saint_clark Posted 4 July, 2023 Share Posted 4 July, 2023 Probably be someone new if JWP goes, an experienced player who's worked with Martin before or a captain from another championship side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sambosa75 Posted 4 July, 2023 Share Posted 4 July, 2023 I reckon Martin will want to bring his own in if JWP goes. There’s not really any natural replacement already in the squad other than potentially Stephens but he is currently probably our 4th choice centre back.

Dellman Posted 4 July, 2023 Share Posted 4 July, 2023 Che? He's more likely to be on the bench..Bednarek for me. Loads of experience, good organiser and in best position for a captain 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saint in Paradise Posted 4 July, 2023 Share Posted 4 July, 2023 I don't really care who it is with the proviso that he must shout at the lazy sods when needed. No waiting until they are back in the dressing room at half time and definitely no pussy footing around in case it upsets their feelings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CSA96 Posted 5 July, 2023 Share Posted 5 July, 2023 I suspect Grimes might be the right answer, maybe with Stephens as a vice-captain. (assuming he's unlikely to go to AFCB with Gary O'Neil gone) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dusic Posted 5 July, 2023 Share Posted 5 July, 2023 A new signing. Has to be someone who will play the vast majority of minutes, so most likely a CB or CM. Of the existing players who have a higher liklihood of staying only Stephens and Bednarek are realistic shouts IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smirking_Saint Posted 5 July, 2023 Share Posted 5 July, 2023 (edited) It really highlights our lack of any significant leadership in or around the first team when we’re looking to appoint a new captain and our options are basically; - A polish CB that got bombed out and happily slagged off the side, yet showed a bit of a resurgence - An English CB prone to more mistakes then he is being a serious CB Unfortunately even Prowsey wasn’t a particularly inspiring captain really, all things considered… its something Ive been asking for a while and, imho is something that’s contributed to our poor mentality over the last few years Edited 5 July, 2023 by Smirking_Saint 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Micky Posted 5 July, 2023 Share Posted 5 July, 2023 Joking aside it's quite worrying that we don't have anyone in the whole squad who fits the bill. We lacked balls, bottle and leadership all last season resulting in one of our worst ever seasons. Where we are going we will need players who can step upto the mark, bully and organise when necessary. The championship is unforgiving, if we don't start well, we have few leaders to sort things out. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck me, did you watch Peter Schmeichel, you know the bloke who was captain in the 1999 champions league final. If he let one through his legs, he’d still bollock the defenders for allowing the shot in the first place. I want a captain to be throwing bollockings around and falling out with people, being unreasonable & creating an edge. Whether that’s Bednarek is open to question, but he’s certainly one of the only ones ( if not the only one)capable of doing so with this bunch. Ideally, we need to get a couple of leaders in, one of whom takes over the role. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is an observation, one held by many, and yes, at 70 I guess I‘be seen PS, Jimmy Case, in fact, quite a few captains, I also saw KK, don’t remember him blaming others for his mistakes, not that he made many.

The Curse of St Mary's Posted 5 July, 2023 Share Posted 5 July, 2023 If only jack Stephens was actually better at defending he'd be prime captain material imo. He just wouldn't be in my first choice 11 even with the other crap defenders we have. Ideally we need two new centre backs and move the likes of bednarek and DCC on.

The Cat Posted 5 July, 2023 Share Posted 5 July, 2023 Don't mind as long as they come from an SO postcode and not somewhere like Salisbury. Probably means it will have to be Smallbone or one of the U18's. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint86 Posted 5 July, 2023 Share Posted 5 July, 2023 (edited) A thread that further underlines both Fareham's and my confidence in JWP staying at saints. There basically isn't anyone else. Although for spirit, i'd pick Alcaraz - ignoring the reality that he's got the temperament of a firecracker that doesn't seem to have the engine to play enough minutes... plus he is even more likely to get sent off than Lyanco...

Back to the question, I suspect it will be a new arrival, possibly Grimes if RM can bring him in. Assuming JWP leaves, which I expect will happen.
