Keshi: Mikel Is My C A P T A I N by datChelseaBoy: 10:37pm On Jul 22, 2013 |
Super Eagles Coach Stephen Keshi on Thursday appeared on Channels Television’s Sports programme in Abuja. In the interview, monitored by SportingLife, the Eagles helmsman spoke on many topical issues. Excerpts: Mikel, honestly speaking, since he played the first game against Liberia in Calabar up till now, he has been a gentle man and a top professional player. I just allow him to do what he wants to do on the field (of play). I also gave him a responsibility telling him that you are my captain in the midfield, you are my captain on the field of play. I told him I would hold him responsible if anything went wrong on the field of play. He accepted and lived up to his responsibilities. So far he has been doing wonderfully. He has been good and I don’t have any problem with him or any other player. http://thenationonlineng.net/new/keshi-mikel-is-my-captain/ http://wearebluesforever..com |

However, Keshi did not say that he is the substantial captain. What that means that Mikel is the leader of the team in the field of play, that is in effect the vice-captain since the captain is a goalkeeper and he is not close enough to all the players to marshal out orders to them. Just like Sergio Ramos is the leader of Real Madrid in the field of play, Pirlo is the leader of Italy in the field of play and Xavi is the leader of Spain in the field of play because their captains are all goalkeepers and not outfield players. |
