Yeah. He has many detractors especially a few around where i sit in the WSU who try and articulate that at loud volume most matches , but he will be Captain next season.
After that. Who knows...

Definitely - I said as much on his second appearance at the Amex (but then in the same match I also said we should haul off Calde just before he banged in that brace).
If Calde doesn't carry on then Beram will be the beating heart of the Albion next year.

I sit in N1D so for the first half of our home games he plays directly in front of me. he seems to constantly lose his man and his go to move is tell stockdale to give him the ball then pass it straight back to him.
for me i like stockdale for captain

Stephens or Crofts for me.
Not sure if putting someone who has only been at the club 3 months would go down well with the squad.

I would keep Greer as club captain but make Stephens or Kayal team captain on match days. Crofts would also come into the picture but will he come back ok, we shall have to wait and see.

I'd want to see a season of fitness (and consistency) from Crofts before putting him in the frame. Dead unlucky recently, but even when on the mend he didn't look the same player as before - I'm aware this is a harsh assessment, but to be Captain you need to be bulletproof I reckon.

Yeah good shout. Although I do fear the point around him leaving. We have to signal our intent early in the window or we will lose him, Stephens and ince.

Most importantly, the clubs needs to make it very clear he is a major asset and look after him.
If we had a tier system to rate our current players at Albion, he'd be on his own at the top, with Stephens, Dunk and Ince on the second level.

I rate the guy but, I keep asking myself, does he look better than he is because the rest of the team are either poor or appear uninterested.
Unlike some others he always shows 100% commitment, surely that should be a requirement for any professional footballer.

Kayal a must as Team captain for me. Since day one he has shown he is a natural communicator on the pitch with ability to go with it and in midfield is perfectly positioned to influence the team. Greer can be Club captain.
Greer is coming towards the end of his career, and it's time we were starting to phase out our ageing defenders - Bruno and Greer are both older than Calde, I think - so Greer might not be an automatic choice next season. In which case I would go for Kayal or Stephens, both of whom look like certain starters (unless we get in some mind-bogglingly good midfielders, better than our wildest dreams, in the summer).

...and? I don't follow. Does this mean Kayal is going to sulk?
No, that's not why he looks good. He performs well against decent opposition too. Actually I think the opposite is true - a fair number of our squad would be ok if in a good team that was playing well.
