David Luiz is future Chelsea captain, says John Terry after Fulham win:

Luiz interim until ChaloBOSS is in the team to take over a few years down the road, I say

I agree, DL4

That article twists Terry's words so much haha, he actually says Cech is naturally in line to be captain next but does compliment DL on his leadership ability.

As he continues to improve in his composure and leadership on the pitch though i'd definetly be an advocate for him as captain. He just needs to cut out some of his rash decisions that he makes on the odd occasion, he's improved alot in the past few seasons and I expect him to continue doing so.

I think it was Ganso who was saying Luiz is like Lucio when he was younger? Can be a bit rash and make funny decisions but constantly improving as he gets older.

Obviously Petr will be the next captain considering how many times he has captained us this season. I imagine he will be the new vice captain should Lampard leave this summer too.

As I've stated several times before, I prefer an English captain and if he can come from within the club's own ranks, that's even better. The last time we had a foreign captain he wasn't exactly a gem and English is the way to go IMO.

Captain Cahill.

If only Luiz had Cahill's english and media handling ability :'(

I was thinking more something like Captain Chalobah

He's already captained several of the youth levels he's played in, and if he does make it in the first team in a few years which I think he will, he'd be my #1 choice

Captain McEachran?

Josh Mac and ChaloBOSS co-captains

Also, we'd have to accept the fact our next captain won't be as good as John Terry.

Well that's a given

So the arm band should go: John -> Petr -> Luiz -> Chalobah.

Sounds about right

Make it happen Roman.

Future English contingent

Add in Super Lukey Shaw as well

How could we forget about him.

I think Mata will get something in the way..

Mata is a decent shout out but I am not sure he is captain material.

Mata couldn't captain a plastic tugboat squeaktoy.

A very eloquent speaker and mild-mannered chap, but not captain-material.

Thats a bit harsh, he has captained teams before.

I just don't think he is up to it full time.

Not full time captain, like Cech now..

DL4 showed his captain credentials today. I also felt he did a better job than Petr at leading them.
