Emphasis on possession now, so he will give us an inspired season.

Agreed. He won't give away possession from the bench much at all.

Should not be anywhere near the first team, let alone captain. Crazy decision.

JT was Chelsea captain last season, don't think it guarantees you a start. That said I'm a big fan of Punch.

JP will be given his chance, it's up to him to grab it by the scruff of the neck. We will see what his response is in just three and a half weeks.

Punch is a great choice . For those who says he gives the ball away too much I say its because he is taking on responsibility of making a pass that counts and that's what captains do , take on responsibility . Boring sideways or backward passing has its value but at some point someone has to pass it forward

Love punch, happy with him being captain but seriously doubt he'll start many games. Luka, Cabaye, Loftus-Cheek, Wilf and Andros Would be my starters. Punch will be great for club captain tho.

When Punch was give the arm band I was surprised but pleased. I think he's proved his captaincy and I wouldn't be surprised if he became Palace manager some time in the future. I know he has his knockers, but to be honest I think FdB's style will suit him and I can see an ever improving performance from him this season. Good decision.
