Im an arsenal fan but really, i think the best captain in EPL currently would be Terry and Stevie G. thats it. none comes close to this. Before this i would think Viera ..he commands everything but Stevie G and Terry is in a league of thier own.
U can put them in the same league as Adams and Wise.
Oh and i think Olof Mellberg deserves to be mention here. Not sure where he is now but when he was with aston villa, he commanded the whole team

The best captain is the one who will bring the whole team to play well along with him. If Stevie G plays well, Liverpool will 99% win the game. That's why he got my vote.. Full stop. And I'm a Liverpool fan.

Stevie is definitely a good captain.. but to me still .. the best captain of all time is Roy Keane..... Not even Cantona can match Keane on captaincy.. this is my opinion.. Stevie however is a different figure compare to Keane... and of coz Stevie is still young.. He has many years more to prove he can be the best.. although I nvr forget about Chelsea's captain.. John Terry is an ideal captain as well.

QUOTE(kobe8byrant @ Nov 10 2006, 02:56 PM) not bad tempered just fiery. lead or be led and in england, gerrard is led by terry but its all a matter of opinion. i do respect people's opinion on why gerrard is a great leader but for me, he's a great player and he leads the team through his performances. he wins liverpool games. similiar to henry, but vieira and terry and KEANO (sorry for emphasis on Keane but i love the man), they dont score goals to win games but they lead their team  I have great respect for Keane as well which is why he was one of my choices. Just don't like players who are a little too over the top.

QUOTE(O-haiyo @ Nov 11 2006, 11:28 AM) do you know well robbie savage? he just plain stupid... yeah...stupid fiery The best example has to be Vinnie Jones who was captain for the infamous 'Crazy Gang'. He holds the record for the quickest yellow card in the world. He got booked just 3 seconds into the game! Wimbledon were by far the biggest nutters in the league. You have to read some of their dressing room stories to know what a bunch of retards they were.

yea no doubt...Steven GERARD! even though i'm a man utd fan but i repect this guy !  he's important to liverpool like how henry is to arsenal! Stevie G almost single-handedly won games for liverpool many many times d. simply brilliant player. Good OLd days- i go for ROy Keane n Cantona...Keane for with him on the pitch man utd was just a different team compared to when he's not...Cantona for having his own style n scoring important goals at important times...remember the goal he scored VS liverpool!!

QUOTE(qintian @ Nov 9 2006, 11:15 PM) a captain muz be calm all the times.. thats the most important thing.. how can a firely leader leads his team when he is on fire? and for thos example u pointed out.. did u see it happened repeatedly?? it can happened to any1 on the field.. and guess wat? i think they will regret on wat they have done on the field after they got a red card haha.. if like that it means terry is not a good captain y? he always argue, play dirty when chelsea were at behind example : chelsea vs barcelona, chelsea vs tottenham

His most blatant dive must have been when he went down in the box in an international friendly just before the World Cup Finals, can't remember which team it was against. Everyone is going for the big names and therefore I thought of giving a special mention to Gary Speed at Bolton. Age is not on his side but he still works tirelessly in midfield for them.

In the past, it was Roy Keane. But for now I would say Steven Gerrard. He is one of the best captain I had seen so far. Inspiring, pushing the team morale up and scoring crucial goals.
