Herrera as captain and De Gea as vice. Maybe Smalling as the latter.
Come on now, we all know how people would react if any of our current players pulled the shit Rooney did. Ferguson himself evidently wasn't please with his behaviour either. Don't know why you're trying to rewrite history, it's common knowledge that Rooney was acting up in Fergie's final season (not for the first time). Acting as he was some unselfish martyr is deluded.If you regard that as bitching and moaning..
I honestly think it should be Tuanzebe he captained the youth team and has shown leadership qualities. No one else in this squad deserves it.Not a single player in this squad worthy of captaincy, assuming De Gea doesn't renew his contract and Herrera leaves.
At this rate it's going to be between Shaw, Lindelof and Rashford
He's played five PL games in his career and you think he should be club captain?I honestly think it should be Tuanzebe he captained the youth team and has shown leadership qualities. No one else in this squad deserves it.
If he has the right character then why not? We need a fresh start, Young has played God knows how many games but was given the armband despite not having leadership qualities.He's played five PL games in his career and you think he should be club captain?
Because it's far too much pressure and responsibility to place on the shoulders of what is currently a Championship player. Not doubting his potential as a player, nor what his leadership qualities may be, but this is Manchester United not Bristol Rovers (my local team, for reference). The kid is 21 years old, let's give him a run in the team first and gets some games under his belt before we through captaincy notions at him (and before anyone mentions De Ligt captaining Ajax, that's different due to 1. they're his local team, 2. he's clearly an elite player, 3. it was also an attempt to keep him longer).If he has the right character then why not?

Captain should be a player that is United regular, not some random local lad, who apparently shown qualities in the reserve squad...I honestly think it should be Tuanzebe he captained the youth team and has shown leadership qualities. No one else in this squad deserves it.
Trolling surely?I honestly think it should be Tuanzebe he captained the youth team and has shown leadership qualities. No one else in this squad deserves it.
Not a fan of GK captain. Far too away from the action.Christ. This is hard.
If Pogba stays and throws out a few comments about how he never wanted to leave and wants to help turn things around here, give it him. If there are still doubts about his future, forget about it.
If it can't be Pogba, replace his name with DDG and the above sentence applies to him also.
After that it'd have to be a new signing because there's absolutely no one who can even dream of wearing it in this team bar the above two.
Tbh he's doing a very good job with Villa, it will.be interesting to see how he does during the play offs as that will be a lot of pressure.Because it's far too much pressure and responsibility to place on the shoulders of what is currently a Championship player.

For what it's worth, my choice would be (if we're replacing Young) Herrera if he stays. Failing that, Pogba/DDG. And if they go too, maybe you're right and we should give it to bloody Tuanzebe because there'll be nobody left!
You can't actually be serious.I honestly think it should be Tuanzebe he captained the youth team and has shown leadership qualities. No one else in this squad deserves it.
I think we're 2/3 years late with trying to prise De Ligt but Alderweireld seems the obvious one to me. Rice as a long-term option too.Tbh he's doing a very good job with Villa, it will.be interesting to see how he does during the play offs as that will be a lot of pressure.
Herrera would be a good shout but I don't think he's gonna stay, I like Pogba but i dont think he has the right tempermant, De gea acts like he has a locked jaw, Young and the rest aren't good enough. We might as well just buy a new captain tbh.
Pogba should be getting nowhere near the captaincy of this club, and Christopher Smalling? He should be anywhere near THE club. I heard they call him 'nose-bleed' in the dressing room, due to his medical condition for when he wanders a bit too near to the half way line, or when he doesn't seen an obvious back pass available.Pogba or Smalling. Herrera possibly if he stays. De Gea should not be considered as captain.
He's captain of Ajax isn't he?De Ligt Cpt. Pogba vice. I’m joking about De Light but I really would sell the club to him as the new captain if it would ceil the deal.

Probably give it to Rashford though.
