bluegaz74 Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 Say's on the official site that Wier keeps the captains armband, which would assume to me that Moyes is likely to play him. I thought he had been kept on as back up for an extra year, now that we have Lescott and Yobo - obviously not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevO Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 it says that Neville will be deputy, so its more than likely he will be th Captain on the pitch week in week out. it would be extremely de-moralising to come out and sayWeir wont be captain anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 I hope you're right Stevo because it will piss me right off if Yobo or Lescott are kept out of the team by an OAP Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FairWooney Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 demorilissing it may be but i'm sure he realises he isn't the first choice centre back with two quality younger players there. really we should be picking someone else for the role who will be playing week in week out. i won't suggest anyone as we've already had plenty of discussions on this matter!

Romey 1878 Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 The thing is though you dont keep players in the starting line up because it would be demorralising to drop them do you? So why should it be any different for captain, the best man for the job should get it. That man should be the player that plays week in week out.

Bill Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 I agree, moysey should have made the statement of intent. what's going through yobo's and lescotts mind at the mo............. will we be on the bench while stubbs and weir are in the team. FFS, Davey's bottled out of making a decision, and just left things as they were. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 I agree Licker. We will know in less than a week what the team is going to start but wasn't Weir injured for the game on Saturday so maybe won't be fit for the game against Watford. I don't think that Lescott is going to start. I think it will be Yobo and Stubbs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 In the article on the official site about Weir staying captain it says he probably wont be fit to face Watford and that Phil will probably be the captain for that game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EFCfanatic Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 I really do hope this wont send out the wrong message to Yobo and Lescott. Although this season all players seem 2 b up 4 the fight. Has he used this for the benefit of competition maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EFCfanatic Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 Probably not tho - he's bottled it like Licker said Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest blueboy122 Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 stubbs is a better player and captain compared to weir maybe stubbsy shud av it cus look were we got the last time he was captain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romey 1878 Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 You're right but I still wouldnt want him in the starting line up over Lescott or Yobo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluegaz74 Posted August 14, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 I don't even know why Wier is the captain, he never say's f*ck all to the rest of the team when he is on the pitch, and id certainly not a commanding centre back. To all intents and purposes Phil Neville barks the orders anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FairWooney Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 i hope lescott bloody plays, i've put him in my fantasy football team, he's cheap as chips and i think he'll play most games. lets just hope he see's some clean sheets!

Dunny the Blue Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 I think that Yobo and Lescott will be our main centre backs so P Nev will be captain unless of injury, Davie Weir is just the most expirienced player and therefore probably just like an honoury captain role.

Mac Posted August 14, 2006 Report Share Posted August 14, 2006 Peculiar this isn't it?. Is DM afraid he will hurt DW's feelings?, so f*cking what - best man for the job and IMHO, Doddie is not that man. I will conceed he has a role to play within the squad, but not this. Please Ginge see sense. ATB Mac Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
