Fabian Delph has departed leaving Tim Sherwood without a captain ahead of the new Premier League season. To be a captain you have to have certain qualities to lead the side. The captain of the teams should lead by example. Motivated to succeed; the ability to pick people up; to be the individual everyone looks up too.
To solve an issue, we have decided to help Tim in his decision on who should be Villa captain. For a few days on the TVV Twitter account, we ran a poll on who should be captain. The results were quite convincing.
Result
Ciaran Clark – 66%
Clark won by a clear margin and on separate tweets we did asking the same question as on the straw poll, Clark was again the convincing winner. To us, it only seems right for him to be the captain given he has already led Villa at all levels of the game.
Micah Richards – 16%
Richards has only signed for Villa this summer, but his reputation for leadership and grit determination is one that suits the captains role.
Other Candidate Results
Ashley Westwood – 9%
Other – 9%
Gabriel Agbonlahor – 2%
