Kiwivillan Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 NRC every time. Just like Laursen he puts his body on the line and gives total commitment. He is also the biggest talker that we have and plays slap bang in the position I want to see my captain in - DCM. Yes, he is never going to be Ronaldo or Messi but you need a mix of players in a team and we need what Nigel brings massively at the minute. Yes please. NRC can't pass as well as Petrov but seeing as the only time he got the ball on Saturday(and end of last season) was from the back, to which he passed it back to a defender to hoof, I'd have NRC over him every time. Petrov was caught to far back in attack and too far forward in defence because he hasn't the legs to get forward in attack and track back in defence in a 4-4-2! He is a luxury that can float near half way in a 4-5-1 with the protection of a hard tackler like NRC(he can block opposition players channels for NRC to close them down). If we got a Tuncay/VDVesque player to play in the hole Petrov's time is up in a 4-4-2, I'm sorry. This will never happen because of MON and this is one of MON's main faults IMO. The inability to see the obvious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

briny_ear Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 When you think of the continuous stream of negativity and vitriol that is poured out against NRC, day by day, on this site, it is just a joke that he is now way in the lead for captain!

Stevo985 Posted August 18, 2009 VT Supporter Share Posted August 18, 2009 I dont know whether this has been discussed elsewhere Nope, we've never had a captain thread before Seriously though. I voted NRC, but I think our captain should be someone who is one of the first names on the team sheet, and NRC isn't, even if he does deserve to be starting at the moment.
