LEAD BY EXAMPLEYou don't always need vocal captains... You can guide by example as a creative player. If the likes of Hazard or Silva are picked as captains, for me, that's a sign that those guys should be competent to inspire the team.NIGEL WINTERBURN, former Arsenal defender, upon how individualistic attacking players can fracture the archetype of the vocal and defensive captain.Manchester United's Antonio Valencia and Manchester City's Vincent Kompany have started five and six league games respectively.Seven clubs (Arsenal, the Toffees, Fulham, City, United, Newcastle and the Saints) have had four or more captains this term.All of which begs a question: Is the ever-present, totemic captain an endangered species? And does it matter?The first matter to dwindling out is that there does not appear to be an obvious correlation with consistency of captain and endowment based upon the little sample of this league season.City complete not appear to have suffered for rotating the armband.In fact, it is easy to disparage the importance attached to captaincy as pass - a peculiarly English hang-up.When pundits - usually from the generations of retired former players - bemoan the nonattendance of leaders in protester football, it feels similar to they are often harking back to that monolithic figure of English folklore.The blood-soaked Terry Butcher, or Captain Marvel Bryan Robson, or John Terry or Tony Adams shouting and pointing fingers.But Nigel Winterburn, who played under Adams at Arsenal, says that the presence of an old-school skipper in the ranks was not something he or his teammates considered a particularly important factor in their success."It didn't provide us all extra," the former England defender says."I never essentially anxious who was captain, it didn't incorporation me."When Winterburn moved to West Ham, the captaincy was less consistent unlike at Highbury, nevertheless he "didn't personally notice the difference".Is the lionisation of a single captain out of step similar to the authenticity of protester football then, a earliest need in an mature of protester analytics and artiste rotation?As Michael Cox sour out in an article for ESPN upon Arsenal's perceived nonattendance of leaders in 2016, all generation thinks it had improved leaders.As early as 1938, after that Gunners boss Herbert Chapman was lamenting: "Football today lacks the personalities of 20 or 30 years ago."A nonattendance of leadership is often a retrofitted criticism applied to underperforming teams, even if teams that succeed, despite lacking archetypal leaders, leave suddenly censure.However, it would be incorrect to say the idea of captaincy is something that is incompatible similar to the systematic side of protester football.It is doable that the cult of the captain has seemingly declined in parallel similar to the rise of the cult of the coach.The advent of meticulous micromanagers such as City's Pep Guardiola and Liverpool's Jurgen Klopp, whose coaching depends in large portion upon intensively rehearsing movements and systems, ensures their teams are never in two minds of what to complete in any phase of the game.It seems there has as a consequence been a change in the type of artiste considered for the captaincy.In the past, that office was usually the maintain of vocal, charismatic, defensive players.But a other breed of captain has begun to emerge. This season, Arsenal's Mesut Ozil, David Silva at City and Fulham's Tom Cairney have worn the armband in the league.These are all attacking players, most of the individualistic variety, none especially loud.But Winterburn, who was captained by Joe Cole in his complete season at West Ham, believes they can complete the job."You don't always need vocal captains," he says. "You can guide by example as a creative player. If the likes of (Chelsea's Eden) Hazard or Silva are picked as captains, for me, that's a sign that those guys should be competent to inspire the team."While Winterburn nevertheless prefers the single-captain model, he adds, "There should be 11 captains out there."It seems that is the exaggeration we are heading but by rotating the captaincy, are you multiplying leadership or spreading it more thinly?Therein lies the paradox - similar to 59 players and counting having skippered a league team this season, is captaincy in decline? Or is it in fashion?THE TIMES, LONDON
