There's something in the book about this. He picks someone who represents the club in the fashion desired by the manager and chairman. I actually think we have a few who could skipper based on those attributes.
Poch mentions in the book that he often gets Hugo, Jan & Harry involved in meetings, and tasks them with the responsibilities of making sure the other players get the message.
The problem is those are also relatively quite individuals and don't come across as players who will get angry when they need to.
Hugo can't put an arm around Dele or Son mid-game and gee them up a bit, unless we want to leave the goal empty.
There should be a leader in defence and midfield anyway, and sometimes it feels like that's where we lack.
We need someone who's head won't drop when the going gets tough.
That's Kane. Poch says in the book that Harry might have the best mental strength of any player in the world.
“Kane is a warrior now. He already was, but he didn’t know he had it in him. I’m not speaking about qualities or traits, but that essential mental strength to be able to stay in the elite. I believe he is the best player in the world in terms of mental strength, willpower and endeavour.
This 100%.Literally no chance of the captaincy being removed from Lloris
