It's a classic believing what you want to believe case.Decent journos who have had plenty exclusives in the past including this club and others. If you want to deny that then that’s up to you.
It has been already said but he cannot speak much English so it is totally pointless. Also he does not need an armband to lead. This myth that some expert fans come up with that being a great player automatically makes you a great captain is tiresome. The same who think being a great player means you will then be a great coach or manager etcPlease elaborate a bit more.
No it’s decent journos reporting a story.It's a classic believing what you want to believe case.
Sure, sure.No it’s decent journos reporting a story.
In Casemiro cause its not just cause he's a great player obviously but he definitely is captain material cause of his leadrship qualities and so on.It has been already said but he cannot speak much English so it is totally pointless.

100% accurate. Fact is, for all the talent we've brought in, we still haven't brought in a vocal leader with captain qualities and starter talent.Casemiro as Captain is a horrific shout same as Martinez. Just because you are the best on the team does not mean you automatically should be Captain, anyone with any sort of football knowledge will know that the qualities to be a Captain are different from that of being a quality player
Sadly there isn’t a captain amongst any of the favoured 11.The hated Maguire and Mct are probably closest to it but they won’t be around much longer.
Bruno has a terrible attitude when the team is playing poorly. He gives up on plays, he throws his arms out at teammates and he becomes incredibly sulky. It only became a talking point because of the gravity of the loss and the situation with the linesman. Its not just against Liverpool, he does it all the time.Still Bruno because:
1. He is always fit
2. He has the right attitude (last night was an anomaly)
3. He is one of our best players
4. He speaks English
5. He has been at the club for longer than all his "competitors" (except for DDG)
6. It pisses off the worst posters on RedCafe
Not every captain can be Keane.
I was always against him as Captain personally, great player but he is not a positive role model as a Captain. Take the responsibility off him and be interesting to see if there is a positive uptick in his overall performances, I reckon there would be.Bruno, he's been a fantastic captain. And shocked how many people are throwing him under the bus because of Neville's stupid comment.
I disagree. Yelling at your team mates when they make a mistake is fine. Looking visibly frustrated when things aren't going your way is fine as long as you keep running and working hard.Bruno has a terrible attitude when the team is playing poorly.

His body language and attitude was equally dreadful in most of the drubbings over the last 2 years. Except he wasn't captain in most of them, and he had Maguire/Ronaldo/McFred taking the lions share of the flack for shit body language and mentally crumbling.I disagree.

Sunday was the first time I've seen him completely give up or push a linesman. He clearly crossed a new line.
A part of becoming an adult is learning that people express their frustration very differently. With some people you just need a single glance at their face to know exactly how they feel. What matters is their next action. As long as Bruno doesn't stop trying, he can sulk as much as he likes. I'd much rather have that than someone who retreats into their shell or quietly shuts down.His body language and attitude was equally dreadful in most of the drubbings over the last 2 years.

How has he been a “fantastic captain” ?Bruno, he's been a fantastic captain. And shocked how many people are throwing him under the bus because of Neville's stupid comment.
Have you watched United this season? Not everything is tangible.How has he been a “fantastic captain” ?
This also sums up Bruno to a tea. Instead of taking the criticism from a serial winner he whinges and seems to justify what he did.
Agreed, people throwing around the term fantastic far too easily. Bruno has been an upgrade on Maguire but that’s not saying much. I’ve only seen two fantastic captains in my life supporting United- Robson and Keane.How has he been a “fantastic captain” ?
The issue with that is that your demeanour impacts your teammates. There is a reason why Keane is remembered as the best captain of this era. Bruno is a better player, but Keane was a better leader.A part of becoming an adult is learning that people express their frustration very differently.

Professional football players probably have thicker skin than most people. The world of sports is quite different. I'd hate to have a colleague like Bruno, but I'm not a professional footballer. I'd also hate to be in a space where a marginal drop in quality or an untimely injury could see me get thrown out the door at the first possible chance. That would be way too competitive for a softy like me.The issue with that is that your demeanour impacts your teammates.
Bruno better player than Keane , I know Fernandes is seriously overrated on this forum by some but this is just bonkers .The issue with that is that your demeanour impacts your teammates. There is a reason why Keane is remembered as the best captain of this era. Bruno is a better player, but Keane was a better leader.
Bruno cant lead by example if he is only going to be someone to rally around when we are winning. You want someone that commands the respect of everyone.
That could be Bruno for all I know, the guys in the dressing room might want him as their captain. My opinion is just based on what I see on the TV.
