Dave Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Now Colo's gone there's a vacancy. Ignored those clearly going to leave, too inexperienced or otherwise obviously unsuitable. Not only for his performances, but for his attitude at the back end of last season, I'd give it to Lascelles. And unless someone substantially better signs (or leaves), I'd make him and Mbemba the basis of our defence going forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the sentiment but surely we can find someone who has made more than 20 starts for us? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foluwashola Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Has to be Lascelles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leazes_End_Mag Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 If he stays, wouldn't mind seeing Tiote get it. If not, Lascelles for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do agree with what you said regarding the future of our defence mind Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Totally forgot Mbemba is only 21 btw. He and Lascelles are ridiculously young, a tough season in the Championship could really make them as a pairing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Altamullan Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 If he's not on his bike, Janmaat strikes me as someone with natural leadership qualities. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
r0cafella Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 If he's not on his bike, Janmaat strikes me as someone with natural leadership qualities. Apart from when he decides to down tools every few games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superior Acuña Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Lascelles is the only one I'd want to give it to, but seems too much pressure for a young lad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colos Short and Curlies Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Lascelles is the only one I'd want to give it to, but seems too much pressure for a young lad. I reckon he'll thrive on it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Funny that, you'd think just looking at that young cherubic face, you'd know he was but a slip of a lad... or perhaps not... x loads Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scoot Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Lascelles for me. Old head on young shoulders and not scared to speak his mind as he did publicly at the back end of last season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkie Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Without knowing a great deal about Ritchie's credentials, there isn't a captain in the squad. Lascelles is the stand-out but he's just a young lad. Maybe he will fit the bill, maybe he won't. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Couldn't give a shit as long as it's not Colback. Just do what the Italians do (as long as it's not Colback). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Siem would be perfect if he could play 8/10 games. But he can't, so it'll have to be Lascelles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaizero Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 My only issue with Lascelles is that I don't feel like he's intended to be a starter. I think we're bound to sign a new, experienced, CB that will start next to Mbemba this season with Lascelles being the back-up option when one of those two would be injured and so on.

Foluwashola Posted July 5, 2016 Share Posted July 5, 2016 Couldn't give a shit as long as it's not Colback. And this. Tim hat well and truly on, but Colback probably wouldn't be an awful Championship captain. Still Jamaal for me by a country mile. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
