Who should be Leeds captain this season? Vote here

|

Leeds have yet to announce who the captain will be for the upcoming season, I’ve narrowed it down to who I think the 4 most likely candidates are and you can vote on who you think it’ll be at the end.




Sol Bamba – Obvious really, he was captain last season, but I think it’s unlikely because I believe he’s not going to start this season and there’s even talk of him leaving.




Liam Cooper – Pretty much guaranteed to start you could say, someone who loves playing for Leeds and will only improve as a player. I personally think centre-back is the best position for a captain. The only problem I have with Cooper being captain is he’s quiet, not the most vocal of players. Definitely a candidate though.




Luke Murphy – Murphy has been captain when he’s played in the pre season friendlies so far and he did captain Crewe when he played for them. A lot of people don’t rate Murphy but I think he’s underrated, he’s very much a confidence player, he just needs a coach that believes in him like Redfearn and Thompson did. Given that we’ve lost Bridcutt and Cook, there’s a chance Murphy steps up and gives us a season similar to the second half of the season under Redfearn. If he does do that, he’d be one of our best players, we just need to see it first.




Rob Green – I’m personally not a fan of keepers but you’d imagine he has to be high in the thought process for Monk, he’s the most experienced player in our squad by far and for that reason alone he’s probably one of the best candidates.

So now it’s time for you to have your say, out of these four candidates who would you rather have as captain? Or would you want someone completely different? Tell us in the comments if that’s you. [polldaddy poll=9474957]

    Unless we sign an obvious captain, who for me, should be a midfield player, I could be tempted to take a punt on Luke Murphy. Like the article, I think he’s often underrated and maybe, just maybe the additional responsibility and prestige will bring the best out of him. I believe that Rob Green will ‘boss’ the defenders and so to give the captaincy to either Bamba (who won’t get much game time) or Cooper would be folly.

    Dallas would be good…
