Is Henderson a shoe-in for captaincy or are other candidates being seriously considered?

Although he's knew to the club I wouldn't mind giving it to Can. He could be in our midfield for the next 10 years, vocal and I think definitely has the potential to be better than Henderson (as much as he's improved)

German u21 captain. Could be worth a shout?

Agree2 Disagree7

Henderson has a back story of determination. The problem with Can is if he does end up as world class, will he be loyal to Liverpool? I think Henderson is the best option at the moment.

Hendo's too volatile for me at the moment. He needs to keep his emotions in check to lead effectively.

If we can keep him on the pitch Studge is a call for me, though I think Can could come through in the net few years if he stays.

Piledriver I think you've a valid point, but for me can hasn't been here long enough to warrant the captaincy yet anyway.

If can does end up world class which he should would Bayern be his destination?

Henderson for me, with Lucas vice captain. If Lucas leaves then Skrtel.

Red Rum

Lallana or Sakho

As long as it's not Sterling, he'd want another £20k p/w

Lucas Leiva should be persuaded to stay at the club and be made captain.

Hendo vice captain.

What about joe allen, maybe it will make him play better.

I think Sakho is possible a good long term option for captain. He has proven his determination to stick out the hard times and get back in the team, just as Hendo did. In addition to that he has captained France at all youth levels and was PSG captain for a bit. I think he would thrive on the responsibility, and I think Hendo makes a fantastic Vice-Captain, passion, endurance and a great role model.

We need a leader as a captain now, for years we had Stevie who led by example but was never the encouraging vocal force you see from all of the best captain's (Terry, Ferdinand, Adams)

Just my two penneth anyway

{Ed002's Note - Sakho will never be captain.}

Will Sakho then shout at himself (or put his own are around his other shoulder depending on his captaining style) when he inevitably makes a mistake in a game.

I would give it to Skrtel before Sakho. In fact, you could make a good case for Martin to be, at the very least, VC next year. Lucas is another I would choose, but I don't think he'll be here long term.

Lallana, if he could return to top form and stay consistent, would make a good captain (and I personally feel he'll finish his career here either way). Before his transfer, I would have said he was an ideal candidate to replace Gerrard as both captain and 'attacking' midfielder.

I rate Can highly but he'd need another season or two with us (and he'd have to pledge his future to us) before I'd rec him for captain. Hamann was VC, and I think we'll see Can eclipse even if the great Didi!

Coutinho is a possibility that few consider, probably because he's not a robust player. He seems to get on with everyone and is well liked/an integral player. If Sterling decides to sign a new contract, I could see him being in the mix in a year or so.

TL;DR: I think it should be someone who plays in 95% of games when fit, ie. Henderson, Skrtel or Sturridge (in that order).

We have loads of options but I think Hendo should be captain. I'm not convinced we need a vice captain in terms of having a named person, but my pick would be Lucas, then Lallana, then Sakho.

spot on red rum

i know he is injured at the moment but what about flanno, with him being a scouser

19 Feb 2015 22:17:31
Can could but I think Hendo can and will.

Ed002, why will Sakho never be captain?

{Ed002's Note - Sakho's English is poor.}
