I'm sure this thread may already exist but I can't find it (Ok admittedly I'm too lazy to even click beyond the 3rd page of threads...)
Just wondering as I have everything else kinds sorted but I seem to have my right-back as Captain as a)he's the eldest b) he was my best defender last season. What am I missing...what are the stats that make a club captain? or is it irrelevant.....pick who you want?
First i put the oldest players from my academy (but they never play at the first squad) then i pick the oldest from transfers.
And i don't think this function has any boost in your game.
In the ask the Devs they did answer that it does have some effect but no one knows what!
I have my best old guy DMC as my Captain, since that is a key position on my team.. and in the list both my GK's so there will always be a Captain on the pitch.
I see, I'll have to change it then as since I have advanced a few leagues he's no longer in my first team....interesting, does it not default a player to captain/vice captain if your chosen one is benched?
For many seasons i have played without captain, it is Mainly cosmetic.
I tend to change captain order whenever my team under-performs or I lose a game, I normally base captain order based on Physical stats (Best to last) so they are mentally prepared to boost team morale when called for.
I believe it does make some difference to player performance but its also my superstition ingame lol
Same, I prioritise my Captains according to the Ave Phys & Mental stat unless 1 has a significantly higher creativty stat, in which case the arm-band is his. ;)Quote:

Well usually I'm using my best striker as captain.
It is cosmetic unless the other players sees him marked as (C) or something like that. I currently have no captain since Season 1.Quote:

suuuueree, that have a effect... but we don't know it... I will prove to put as a captain who shooot fouls... and will see...
too I belive in the idea that matches are for defaut created to be played in different conditions/scenarios/situations, for example one day our players will be more aggresive, so if we attend the match and we can see that, maybe if we change the player with yellow card, he don't recibe the 2nd and we change the result..
so maybe exist some conditions in what the captain in some% can help.... but... for now, no idea...
Too is posible that we play more in attack, or in defense.. or so, but is difficult to see coz everybody see the game with his viewpoint and individually... we neeed to study the game all together to see these type of things that are in the internal proggramming.
