Given Walsh's statement, I doubt vb will remain as captain.
What's your thinking? Mines Sloane
Think you're right re VB - I still have fingers crossed for TexJust watched Walshy's 15 minute presser.
Strongly doubt VB will captain. I think it will be Sloane.
VB needs to concentrate on his football, he hasn't been cemented in the 22 since 2012 and after missing a year his full attention should be on getting into it based on form, he can't be given a spot just because he is the captain.
Choosing between Dangerfield and Sloane is like choosing between Steaks or Blowjobs if you could only have one for the rest of your life. I think Sloane just gets over the line because there is less ambiguity about his next contract.

I don't really think that interview suggested that Van Berlo is out of the race/we're going to go someone else.
Seemed to try and keep his cards close to his chest, what I did gather from it is he really wants to see how the players lead during match simulation. Not in terms of dominating the play as such but I think telling others what to do/what they should be doing. Never really noticed this from Van Berlo before although it's very hard to tell as a spectator as well I feel.
Still hoping for Tex myself but I think it's still very much anyones gig.
I do like how Walsh treats it as a team rather then a bunch of individuals when talking about the team. Of course it would be nice to hear his thoughts on individuals as well and I'm sure we will (post game thoughts etc) but seems like he's really pushing the team side of things which is great. Not everyone has to have an impressive stat line as long as they're doing the jobs given to them.
I also like the way Walsh talks team, and I was quite surprised to see his recent individual praise (premature I reckon) of Cheney - already talking him up as best 22. But maybe Walsh is seeing what he wants in terms of 'he understands the concepts and is a leader out there'. Hope it was a calculated comment.
Lol - we will trade him in as vc for 2016...Sounds like he wants Boak as captain...
Think it will quell the character that is tex. Ie. Speaking his mind & keeping it real. Make him dvc with Talia.Not enough love for Walker.
He has the ability to lift those around him more than any other player you have on your list atm including Sloane and Danger.
Have no idea what he is like training wise or anything else, but if he is the type of person that would grow with the added responsibility then he would end up being a top captain.
Yeah agree with that.I also like the way Walsh talks team, and I was quite surprised to see his recent individual praise (premature I reckon) of Cheney - already talking him up as best 22.
