Chelsea have had a management downside for a while now, and it looks like that management downside is not only on the pitch and can also be now on the very high of the membership as nicely.
However anyway, I’m not talking in regards to the house owners on this article, that is extra a couple of lack of management on the pitch.
I don’t fee Reece James as an excessive amount of of a captain not less than in a standard sense. In fact, you possibly can lead by instance and there are such captains, however for me, I wish to see a vocal captain, and James is simply too quiet. He’s additionally simply too injured more often than not as nicely.
Enzo Fernandez I do like as a captain, however there’s clearly some off discipline stuff and query marks there (he’s not too long ago been banned from driving and did not attend court docket for it, and there was of the course the racism incident in the summertime). However with out taking a look at all that stuff, I do like Enzo as a captain and he does have the fitting traits that we’d like by way of being a pacesetter on the pitch.
However for me, probably the most appropriate captain we’ve got proper now’s Levi Colwill. I noticed him as the one vocal participant within the tunnel earlier than the Bournemouth sport on Saturday while everybody else was quiet. For me, doing this type of factor is important and so wanted.
Moises Caicedo led the gamers out however he was silent, and like James, he’s simply not vocal sufficient to be a captain regardless of being a participant that leads by instance with how he performs and the efforts he reveals.
I’m not speaking about simply aimlessly shouting at everybody once I say a vocal chief is required. I’m speaking about motivating even when the chips are down, not giving up, instructing, speaking, being calm, and simply persistently making an attempt to get the gamers up round you. Colwill does that probably the most.
Is he an ideal captain possibility? Not but. However he’s probably the most appropriate to develop into one for my part.
He’s additionally persistently taking part in nicely and is in an amazing place on the pitch to be captain, as a result of he can see the entire sport forward of him. A number of the greatest ever captains in world soccer have been centre backs, and one of the best ever captain we’ve got had up to now, John Terry, was a centre again. There are numerous similarities between Terry and Colwill.
It is a younger and inexperienced squad, and we regularly see the detrimental results of getting no actual leaders within the staff. Colwill is one who can arise and I imagine he would arise much more if given the accountability of being captain.
Folks may suppose he flirted with Liverpool not too long ago, however that was by no means as large because it was made out and at the moment, Colwill was not sure how a lot Chelsea valued him and he was on the lookout for the membership to point out him that.
Now, he’s rising as a participant and rising as an individual, and I really imagine he has the constant high quality and management expertise to be our membership captain.
It’s all irrelevant anyway as a result of it doesn’t seem like Enzo Maresca goes to alter something in that sense proper now and has his ‘leaders’ picked. So Colwill may simply have to attend to be a Chelsea captain. However he’s obtained it for my part and ought to be captain, or not less than certainly one of them.
