Who should be our next captain if Grimes leaves. Some would ask who should be our captain if Grimes stays?
We are struggling for natural leaders in the team.
I am struggling to suggest a suitable candidate. |  | | |  |

For me you should always go for a centre back. If he is staying, and that’s not a definite. Ryan Bennett. |  |

Kyle Naughton plus he should be the right centre half. |  |

I agree. Monk, William's in the past but a lottery at the moment who is staying and who would play 90 minutes. | | | |

At the end of last season I’d have said Bennett but given his performances recently does he even deserve a starting place in a Martin back 3 (RB … CH … LB)?
Smith or possibly Walsh. |  |

It shows where we are as a team, centre back or keeper for me, but in this squad, ask me in 12 months.
We are in transition.
Good news is by 9 a.m. Wednesday all sorted. With 3 days off ( because they're tired, bless them) and 2 weeks training ( what have they been kicking / doing since age 6 I hear you ask ) all the worries we had would have gone.
Can't wait. Simples. They have been learning how to pass to a player in the same colour shirt, which they did not do in the last friggin match. Just smile. | | | |

Ryan Bennett for this season, with Flynn Downes vice captain stepping up next season. |  | | |

I’m not sure there’s really an issue with three days off when they’ve played seven games in three weeks and the next one is in twelve days time. | | | |

To much of a "hot head", if he was expected to question a decision during a game the yellow cards would flow. | | | |

That's one exit that would please me. Captain? No way, very lucky to be in the squad. | | | |

Jay was passed the armband during the Plymouth game. We were drawing 1-1 at the time, the rest is history. I think he would make a good captain, and the responsibility would make him a better player. | | | |

Personally, I don't think Smith will get enough gametime.
Walsh is new and I don't like giving the captaincy to new players.
There are not many good choices tbh.
It's between Bennett and Naughton for me.
I'm edging towards Bennett for some reason. I guess it will go by who has most influence.
I would like to see how Downes goes before he gets it. Too young at the moment, but someone obviously saw something in him to give him the armband at such a young age. |  |

That could be a great choice actually.
But will he get enough gametime? | |

Walsh, is that a joke, we'll be lucky to get a dozen games out of him, I heard he brought his own treatment table with him, present from the medical/physio's at Bristol. |  |

I would love that (and it will come) but at his age would it have the same effect as giving Grimes the captaincy? | |

If we are so skint,why risk taking on a real injury prone player.
Why?
We should be taking on solid experienced pros who are ready to play | |

He does look like a game changer though mate | |

When though.
That is key.
It is and was a massive risk we didn’t need .
I do think Downes is key though.
He could prove to be a good buy in fairness | |

I agree with Downes.
I also think Walsh will prove to be a good buy. As someone said on another thread, we have top physios here. | |

Cant and dont want Bennet playing, id rather go for developing Cooper Ben and Lati. |  | | |

Walsh was a free transfer. Not sure of the wages, but I doubt we’d have thrown silly money at a player with a patchy injury record. It is a gamble, but I don’t think it’s a massive one | | | |
