Amps as Captain is an excellent choice and Struijk as, presumably some sort of Vice Captain I assume, is also first rate. The one I'm completely mystified about is Meslier as the 3rd piece of the triangle.
I don't recall any real verbage to defenders during games, in fact any shouting at all. I can only assume that behind closed doors he is a vocal figure in training hence the appointment. Personally I would have thought that Rodon would be more suited to the role. I guess the team understand French better than Welsh!
On the Meslier side. Just watch back the preseason leeds united posted videos and in them he always seems to be by himself. Does not seem to interact with other. Kinda that chilled guy watching from the outside vibe.
Meslier has played 151 games for us, been involved in a promotion team, knows the club and its values. Not strange to have him in our leaership group.
You do not have to be loud and in your face, sometimes a calm voice is all that us needed
I thought that odd as well
