    Petrov will be offered the captaincy to keep him at the club.

    But Jarosik will start next season so will petrov get the shout to play?

    I dont know

    Petrov if he stays and retracts his transfer request, then if he leaves, give it to big Bobo.

    Boruc dosnt have the club at heart.
    As soon as an english club come in for him he will go. He thinks he is too good for Celtic.

    Great to see Kennedy back. Some hun in my work thinks he wont be up to it. Crap. He will be a fantastic player.

    Our captain should be Maloney.

    Balde or Maloney for captain.

    Balde would rise to the challenge and would knock a couple of huns out in the process!

    I am sick of people knocking celtic.

    We are champs by a mile.

    The Jambos can only dream of title success and Le guen is a *.

    Celts all the way!!!

    How can anyone vote for Kennedy? The guy is lucky to be playing again, he's living off the back of one or two decent performances before his injury. Even before he was crocked I didn't rate him that highly. Too slow and turns like an oil tanker. He won't get back in the team imo. McManus and Caldwell are the only 2 obvious candidates, both have the right attitude and feeling for the club.




    P.S. Maloney for captain? Sober up!

    I dont know if Kennedy is good enough and I dont know if any player can be the same after such an injury but all I can say is that I hope he is as good because he was a scotland international before his injury.

    He should never have been capped so early, Berti was handing out caps like sweeties so that means * all

    Stan if he stays would be a great captain ... Heard him say in an interview last weekend in bulgaria that he is in a situation just like Strachan was in 1982 in Aberdeen . He wants to leave as he wants to test his abbilities in another league . He said that if he doesn't get transfered he is ready to play again and give all his heart to Celtic as in the previous 7 years .

    So let's hope nobody would want to buy him :)

    Caldwell is a natural leader, and an experienced captain. The only thing that stops him is that its his first season.

    I chose Balde but I not sure of my selection because the more I think about it, I cant remember him shouting at his teammates and firing them up. I dont think a keeper should be captain because he's stuck back in the goal. and communication will only be good if the team is defending alot.

    McManus is the only option for it imo, he's commanding, quick and not afraid to tell his teamates what he thinks of them. A think if he was given the Captaincy he may start to stop diving in with daft tackles aswell and that he would thrive with the responsibility.

    Wilson would also be a decent choice as Captain I think.

    Caldwell hasn't been at the club for long and imo he shouldn't be getting a game. Jarosik has only been here 5 minutes. Balde and Maloney don't seem loud enough to me. Petrov would have been my choice to get the armband but he wants to go and we should let him go, no way a unhappy player should be captain imo. Boruc is a goalkeeper and a don't think we should consider having a Keeper as Captain as it doesn't usually work. Don't think that John Kennedy will be upto much tbh, he's barely kicked a ball for 2 years and when he played imo he never seemed to be someone who was loud and inspiring to the others.

    McManus is still learning the game by his own admission

    Boruc is older than Petrov...

    Petrov would be the natural choice of Captain due to his years of service and he's captaincy of his national team. Nobody else can compete with him on those merits
