Should Klopp pick a new captain?

I know some of you guys are set against changing captain, but from what I see when people post their first 11, Henderson isn't exactly on most peoples first 11. Gini and Can pops up more than Henderson and transfer window has not started yet.
My own personal opinion on this is Rodgers made him captain at a time there were not many more suitable candidates around.
Now there are a whole bunch of players that are more important to our side.
If you can remember when when Gerrard was out, we noticed yet when Hendo was out it was hardly a big problem.
I think it is unfair for the fans and other players to stick with Henderson as skipper if he is not the best option.
I would have liked to add a poll for this, but I could not see the option.
Personally I would change captain, especially since we are to strengthen our squad and could solidify Henderson as a squad player.

Henderson is the Captain for me, end of.

Poll added as requested.

Personally I would leave it till the transfer window and the pre season is over.
If as Jürgen says it's all about teamwork and the team ,I'd let the players call it not saying we should change our captain but you gotta be playing every week.

Personally I'd be looking at someone else. Never sat right with me Hendo being made captain if I'm honest, he's a decent player but I don't see him as captain material. Especially when he is getting like Sturridge and gametime massively decreasing, what's the point in someone being captain if they rarely play nowadays?

I haven't had the chance to look so I could be wrong here but over the last 2 seasons I wouldn't be surprised if Milner has captained the side a lot more than what Hendo has.

But looking at the side, it's also hard to pin point a real leader still. There's no Gerrard, Carra, Agger, Hyypia or Pepe. Personally if we were to change captain, I'd be leaning towards Coutinho. He's the name that instantly stands out as the most suitable IMO. He might not be the most vocal but then, neither was Gerrard. But like Gerrard, the team look at him as our main man, the man who will push us on to getting the points.

Though, if Hendo does stay captain I won't exactly be kicking up a fuss over it, but surely a captain has to be first name on the team sheet and playing regularly? Hendo is neither.

Only other player worth it is Lucas, who won't be here next season so Hendo it is for me.

Could never see why Henderson was chosen as Captain... Can for me

New Captain - For now Adam Lallana for me

I don't mind Hendo as Captain now...think he's grown into it, but he's never on the pitch anymore. Is he going to be healthy or constsantly battling injury?


I would pick Lallana personally. I feel like he works harder than any other player so he leads by example and he's got a bit of edge to him when needed. Also, wasn't he Captain at Southampton?

I'd give a shout for Coutinho, but one of the things the Captain needs to do is communicate with the officials and without  English being his strong language, that would be a bit of a struggle for Phil.

I wonder if giving Lovren the arm band would improve and take him to the next level?

Anyway, I still have faith in Hendo, and I am optimistic w'll see him pkay at least, 30 PL games this season! Still captain for me.

Personally I would change captain

Who have you in mind Riba? 🤔

If Jürgen decides to change the captain, it's going to be for Milner surely?

Me? As things stand I can't see anyone else being worth consideration - Matip maybe?

we need a new captain, I'd go for Can or Matip, they both seem like leaders. I really don't wan to see Henderson starting to many games next season even when fit, i think we have better options to chose form in midfield although he is useful in the squad.

co-captains?

Milner has done well as captain whilst Hendo has been injured, he is 31 and could be captain for a couple of seasons, but looking to the future Coutinho has shone out since we got him and as long as he is still here at the end of the window, which I really think he will be, then he is another choice for me. He captained Brazil so there is no reason he can't be captain here. We have a couple of candidates. Maybe Milner captain and Coutinho vice captain for now. We do have to consider whoever is captain needs to have a high probability of making our first 11.

Worked well for Evans & Houllier

Hendo stays captain.

I don't think it did, did it?

In 1998 Liverpool's longstanding Boot Room coach Ronnie Moran retired and was set to be replaced by Gerrard Houllier for the 1998–99 season onwards. In fact it was decided that Houllier would become joint manager of Liverpool to work alongside Evans, but the arrangement was not a success and Evans resigned in November to leave Houllier in sole charge.

Likewise and if fully fit he starts in midfield for me as well.

Which one is the religious nutcase ?

I know RP, I was trying to be sarcastic.I should have used the following 

Ahh, got you.

With regards Henderson:

Don't think he's a certain starter, especially if we're after another central midfielder such as Keita.

Don't think he has a strong enough presence.

Don't think he has the self-belief to grab the game by the scruff of the neck.

Don't think he has inspirational qualities when out on the pitch.

Injured far too regularly now also.

For me, I'd be looking at Can to take the armband but his contract situation makes that a worry and again you could argue he might not get in the team if we buy another top quality midfielder. Milner is the 'safe' option, but again he's too nice to be captain in my opinion. You have to impose a bit of your will not only on your team-mates but also on the referee, the likes of a Gerrard/Keane/Viera would play in the mind of a ref, not fear but a level of respect their characteristics demand and I just don't feel either Jimmy or Hendo have that weight of character, far too easily fobbed off.

Can't agree with those suggesting Coutinho, he's not vocal enough, he allows his mood to dip too easily when we're struggling and becomes quite insular. Matip is a reasonable shout but I'm not sure what his English skills are like but much more like the stature required.

There's only one future captain.
