My captain!
Bruno announced as new Manchester United captain

The best choice.
Congrats Bruno. Although we now have many leaders on the pitch he’s been our captain for awhile now
He whinges and moans when we’re winning too. The man has high standards and clearly ten hag sees that he can be his mindset on the pitch.
Guessing there's a correlation between those people that don't think Bruno is a captain and also don't really rate him. He is our best player, truly leads by example and has been the de-facto captain for a while now. Rightly deserved, great news!
Good choice.
The best choice, the obvious choice really.
Is Maguire now vice or is it someone else ?
Nah, that is @BenitoSTARR
I thought he matured in this sense after the Liverpool game. He definitely took that criticism to heart because he’d toned down the theatrics massively from there on in but yeah before then those antics were beginning to seriously grate.
Right choice.
Maguire is Captain of setting up the cones for training. Not sure we will have an official Vice Captain, may just have a leadership group with the likes of Case and Varane if needed but lets be honest, barring two broken kneecaps you are not getting Bruno off the pitch.
Let the whining begin.
Reserves it is for him.
“We’re gonna whine so much… you may even get tired of whining!”
Deserved, hopefully he leads to a successful season
The obvious choice. Bruno is the leader of this team, it’s the right call from Ten Hag.
As expected. Always available and is desperate to win. The correct choice.
A whinging captain for whinging fans

I always classed him as the captain even when that other numpty was on the pitch.
Good to see it being official though.

Leadership cannot be buy! Congrats Bruno.
The obvious choice. Very happy for him and the fact its bound to piss off some rival fans is an added bonus.
Training would never start on time if Maguire is the one setting it up. He is too slow.
Captain hissy fit
Has effectively been captain in my mind for like 2 years now anyways. The only choice.
Hope he lifts the league trophy next year in May alongside Ten Hag
Can't help but feel he's going to have his best season ever with us
Poor refs can't tell him to go away when he's whinging anymore.
Not surprising, I think he spent more time with the armband last season than Maguire
They'll have to call him over and ask him to have a word with himself about calming down.
He’s basically unofficially been captain since he arrived here.
glad it’s confirmed now it’s well deserved

Really chuffed that Bruno has been picked, the right choice amongst a team that seems to have a few natural leaders.
I remember a few years ago that we were all complaining a lot that there were barely any leaders in this squad, now we have l:
Bruno
Casemiro
Varane
Martinez
Shaw
Rashford
To name a few that seem to take on some responsibility when out on the pitch. I imagine ETH is very happy with where we’re going in this respect.

No surprise there, also doesn't mean Casemiro, Martinez and Varane won't inject grit and fight into the squad in their own way. Good choice all around.
I hate what a deal it is to some of you.
Not the whinger we want but the whinger we needA whinging captain for whinging fans
Well deserved, congrats Bruno! We have plenty of choice of leaders now, but when Bruno first arrived here, he carried our creative output for nearly 18 months. He has earned this. He is also the perfect embodiment of what EtH wants, tactically flexible, has quality on the ball and very hard working. When you combine that with his Spanish and English skills, he's an easy choice for captain.
I personally have never had a problem with his moaning. As evidenced by every time we face Spanish opposition, the moaning works. Refs aren't strong enough and are prone to be persuaded. At least now Bruno will be the officially designated moaner of the team.

The natural decision.
