4 Manchester United players who deserve the captain's armband

#1 Paul Pogba

Pogba is now thriving at United

The most evident and popular choice to replace Valencia as the club captain is Paul Pogba. The World Cup winner was beginning to secure his captaincy until his training ground bust-up with former manager Jose Mourinho.

But now Mourinho's gone and Pogba has had a sort of revival under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer. His recent performances also do not suggest that the Frenchman's form will deteriorate anytime soon.

Being a box to box midfielder, Pogba can control the game on both ends of the pitch, which makes him the best choice for the captaincy role. On multiple occasions this season, Pogba has shown his capability of thriving as a captain at the club.

A big factor which may affect Pogba's chances for captaincy is the transfer rumours lurking around the club, suggesting that he could move away to either Barcelona or Juventus. But under Solskjaer, the rumours have now started to die down as the French midfielder starts to gain his world-class form yet again.

It is high time that fans see a young, capable and dominating personality as a captain at the Old Trafford.
