However I do buy into a view that we are lacking leaders in the club on the pitch and behind the scenes. Gazidis is having some impact already but we need 11 players on the pitch who are capable of motivating themselves and their teammates.Obsinhohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17682633045526999412noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328101106494598665.post-9342839522780770462009-06-27T15:56:29.194+01:002009-06-27T15:56:29.194+01:00Blogger, while i do agree with cesc not being the ...Blogger, while i do agree with cesc not being the best choice for captain TODAY - for sure he would have been the captain in 3 -4 more years - and that gallas was stripped of his captaincy for the same blunt "Wake up Arsenal!" remarks, the scenarios and the players themselves are different and this in itself warrants alternative outcomes.At the time of the gallas incident, everyone, Malikhanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16625060475869208375noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328101106494598665.post-91447785861520779982009-06-27T03:08:44.970+01:002009-06-27T03:08:44.970+01:00I can't believe I'm saying this, but the S...I can't believe I'm saying this, but the Spanish press lies more and is more irresponsible than the American press!<br /><br />Hey, Spain, press THIS: Two-nil!<br /><br />Not that there's a single player on the U.S. national team who would likely start for Arsenal...<br /><br />Now, if Cesc can just show us that the game I just invoked was, in his case, a fluke, and he'll be readyUncle Mikehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11618876073064128027noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328101106494598665.post-30052823384833878822009-06-27T02:32:26.406+01:002009-06-27T02:32:26.406+01:00so, who would be buy in place?

While being blatantly may (though not always) indicate good character, Fabregas is also the captain, and qualities such as discretion and diplomacy are equally important when it comes to communicating through the media. His 'impotent' mark may well be true, but as captain that's a conversation best held with Wenger and the rest of his teammates.<br Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328101106494598665.post-50853433349148324102009-06-26T00:40:22.540+01:002009-06-26T00:40:22.540+01:00the summer stinks for everybody.

I love Kolo but he's never shown any leadership qualities on the pitch at all. I'll never forget early last season how he gave an instruction to Song for a free kick and Song shook his head and turned his back on him. Kolo didn't react. We don't have any players with natural leadership skills, except maybe marcusnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328101106494598665.post-69649463772687054922009-06-25T15:49:59.151+01:002009-06-25T15:49:59.151+01:00Thanks Marcus - useful and interesting stuff.

You're assuming you can believe these reports. The guy over at arsenalinsider just checked a source in Spain who was at the Q&A and his take on Cesc's comments is quite different.
