Carra for Captain?
Seriously!
I've had it with Stevie G constantly being the centre of attention for both media and fans alike and I think it is time that he passes the captiancy over to its rightful aire (?!)
Reasons why Carra should be captain.
1) He IS the voice of the dressing room and all players acknowledge this as fact.
2) He is a Natural leader on and off the pitch.
3) His head NEVER drops, no matter what.
4) He is down to earth, not a prima donna, a proper man's man with no airs and graces.
5) He has NEVER spit his dummy. Ever! not when he's been left out of the side, when he's played whole seasons at RB or even LB even though he knew he was a CB. He was just GRATEFUL to be playing for Liverpool.
6) He is by far the most VOCAL on the pitch. Stevie might be captain on paper but Carra is already captain in practice.
7) It would definitely give him a huge, and timely, boost helping to improve his form and seeing as we're shipping goals at the moment it would be ideal.
8 ) It would also IMO put a fire up SG's backside and give him a point to prove, aswell as bringing him down to earth a notch or ten!
9) There's no reason why a team's "best" player has to be captain. Ronaldinho is not captain. Drogba is not captain. Giggs has never been a regular captain. Ronaldo (Madrid) has never been a captain, Dalglish wasn't captain, Barnes wasn't captain. You want your best motivator to be captain: Keane, Souness, Terry etc and Stevie is NOT our best motivator, Carra IS!
10) It would also relieve the a burden from SG's shoulders and allow him to simply concentrate on his game. Stevie's temperament is a bit like Henry's at the arse and since Viera left (who was a natural leader in the Carra mould) his captaincy has been unconvincing, just like Stevie's.
To make something straight, I like Stevie, I think he is our best player (but not so far this season), I simply think that Carra would be a better man for the captain's job and would love to see him get his just desserts.

Something is very wrong in the Camp
The season seems to be getting worse just when you thought it couldn't, anymore.
Aside from Alonso's terrible form, there seems to be a problem with Rafa's relationship with Gerrard, who's hasn't really looked interested so far this season. Whatever it is, seems to be affecting his form massively so its probably something big. I doubt there's much truth in the rumors about his missus, its probably more to do with the dressing room.
He's also clearly frustrated at not getting to play in his preferred position. He's come out and said that before the boro game and then Rafa comes out with a completely unnecessary 'He didn't speak to me, I spoke to him' which to me shows there might be some bother in the camp. A completely unnecessary reminder of who's the boss, really.
I hope they settle their differences sharpish - Benitez is the type who won't take sh*t from no one and Gerrard does come accross as a little cocky at times, if you've read his book.
You're Not Fooling Anyone, Wayne
Says Honest Wayne Rooney:
"I'd never dive. I'd like to think of myself as an honest player.
"That's the way I play. I don't like diving, football doesn't need it."
Which would probably come as a surprise to Arsenal fans, if they weren't busy celebrating the now three-season unbeaten run that didn't come to an end as a result of an acoustic foul on Mr Honesty in October 2004.
We're just waiting to see what Jamie Carragher has to say about it.
Watch Mr Honest's eyes.

The female 'Brokeback Mountain' ?!?!!
Might be old news for some of ya but Eva Longoria and Beyoncé Knowles will reportedly play lesbian lovers in a new movie that’s been dubbed the female 'Brokeback Mountain'.
The R&B star and Desperate Housewives actress will get steamy in sexy Victorian drama, 'Tipping The Velvet', which will be directed by Sofia Coppola.
"Yes it's true. We are talking about doing the movie together. It's such a wonderful novel, a beautiful love story,” Eva says.
Beyonce will play 1890s music hall star, Kitty Butler, and Eva will appear her lesbian lover Nan Astley in the movie that will be based on the novel by Sarah Water.
"We've had 'Brokeback Mountain' so the time is right for this divine novel to get the same treatment," Beyonce says.
Beyonce & Eva are set to be excited about starting the project.
