if compare like this, i think Henry should win both of them....
Arsenal with Henry & Arsenal without Henry got big different ler.......

IMO, i do think Steven Gerrard & Thierry Henry got the same style in the leadership which use their own action (the way they play football) to influence their teamate....and what Steven Gerrard advantage compare to Thierry Henry is Thierry Henry is much more quite compare to Gerrard who will shout to his teamate.....

Terry is another type of leader which will shout to anyone who is "Sleeping" on the field......he know what he shud do to cover when there is a "hole" at the field.....

Gary Neville on the other way is the captain becoz of he is senior in the team and his influence on the team....

Althought i am a Man Utd fan, among the top 4 clubs (base on the long run performance n not EPL table) in EPL, i would say Gary is not as good as other in the term of captain.....

stevie g for me....always keep on running on the pitch.....so damm hardworking....

my vote go for parker. i'll always remember that match against The Gunners, even though Shearer was the captain.

yup.. u can see him everywhere.. right left up and down.. not like some captain who just stay in certain part of field

well ... i couldnt find any reason why a captain need to run around and be everywhere ... JT got my vote

influential player work better than inspirational player

So, someone who is hardworking, and keep running around here and there is a good leader? Oh.........

I think Gerrard seems more influential because Chelsea have abit more quality in their side compared to Liverpool. If for example Gerrard was playing for Chelsea he wouldn't be as influential. Just my 2c.

yup.. captain must be hardworking and be example to the others.. lazy captain will cause the teammates moral down

yeap

that is the most inspiring captain's performance ever. when he scored the goal commentators even said 'A Captain's goal for Roy Keane'

all time epl captain - roy keane

for now i think is stevie.G

stevie g..like keano was like to MU

Stevie G for me. I love his workrate. His performance in Istanbul was exceptional. He scored with the header, and took the game to Milan. It was an outstanding performance.

Of course, for me, no one comes close to Roy Keane, cos i felt like, he didnt even have to speak, and when the young ones were on the park, theyd shift a gear higher.

But in concurrent times, its Stevie G. And if u ask me, midfielders are the ones who win the game for u, and its more susceptible to have the captain from that part of the field.
I take nothing away from Gary though. His performance against Portsmouth was mouth-watering, with him coming from the right back, all the way to get at least 3 shots on goal. Thats marvelous.

richard dunne, sometimes score own goal, sometimes score proper goal

steven gerrard gets my vote.

lol..in tat case Oliver Kahn is the lousiest leader on Earth. pls lar......why workrate is always a factor in these cases? influence counts for nothing? leadership?

I was being sarcastic in that post.

and i was agreeing with u. i didnt mean to diss u. sorry for any misunderstanding

Ur quoting is misleading, thats why.

workrate does count when it comes to striker, midfielder or defender become a captain, this is what we call led by example. gk have their own workrate as well, just that it wasnt about running here and there.

i voted for gerrard and had JT as my 2nd choice. gerrard performance at times just pure inspiring while JT led a group of superstar and consistently perform well.
