Its a big fat yes from me.
Dann has become less vocal since he got the armband. Delaney is also a leader on the pitch.

Someone suggested Wilf and Puncheon earlier? Sorry but wuld rather they focus on there own games and Wilf does tend to throw a tantrum now and again. Both actually need a leader to gee them up and calm them down at the right time in games.

T'was me. Might be the responsibility that finally sees him realise his massive potential and grow into a player that stops the tantrums and all that. Just an idea. People raised eyebrows when Beckham was made England captain and Rooney for United.

That is THE story isn't it? Him and Darren Fletcher.

See you reasoning but not sure i could see the senior players responding to Wilf, Puncheon maybe but he gets very emotional at times.

As someone else said, Delaney is the only real leader left at the club. Dann is mature but he lacks the edge and inspirational character of a Jedinak or Delaney.

Looking back over the past 10 or so years, we've had some good captains: Derry, Hill, McCarthy, Jedinak, Delaney. All were better as leaders than Dann is at the moment IMO. I hope Dann grows into his role but you get the sense that Delaney and Jedinak were more dominant characters that Pardew probably felt more challenged by.

You may be right. Apart from that, Delaney should be interim captain until the season finishes, seeing as it is most probably his last season. Then we should go shopping for a ready made captain in the summer. f*** knows who mind.
