I agree, easy to say now though I may have put it in here, to me I don’t think he ever was the right captain for the campaign but it’s difficult to change a captain mid season or after promotion. Now is the perfect time though and it helps him manufacture his move.
His leadership style is one where he drives the team on and leads by example, but he’s not an organiser, motivator nor does control set pieces. A captain needs to occasionally step in to take over, slow it down and let players get forward, tell someone over it (el Ghazi) to get lost.
It’s the perfect time with ten games or whatever’s left to take the captaincy off jack post this, gives it to Mings who’s primary job is to keep the ball out which might give the other ten players a kick up the arse and think a bit differently.
Let’s be honest, the Euros being delayed is a few nails in the coffin for his villa career because jack is struggling to get in the squad even playing for us in the top flight let alone the championship. If he moves to a top 6 club hes guaranteed a place because of the way that big nosed twat Southgate thinks, so he’ll be desperate to leave.
