Ex Burnley players now Captains of their clubs

[CaptJohn]

I was watching the Brentford v Chelsea match last night and I started wondering how many ex players are now club captains of their respective clubs.

Nathan Collins; Brentford
Tarks; Everton
Jimmy Dunne; QPR
O'Shea; Ipswich

Can anyone add to that? I'm sure I may have missed some.

Had Tarky been appointed captain this season? I thought it was still Coleman.

EDIT: Everton captain is still Séamus Coleman.

I think Westwood is - Charlotte FC

He is.

Darikwa at Lincoln

Yeah, Tarky isn’t official Everton captain (still Coleman as Tony says), but he has worn the armband plenty.
Westwood at Charlotte FC is a great shout.
Darikwa at Lincoln too, didn’t realise he’d been made captain there.

Tom Anderson was Doncaster captain for years before his summer move to Shrewsbury.

Coleman has played 1 minute so far this season so more of an off the field role.

He's still the club captain

Brownhill will be skipper at Camel FC or wherever he's gone before long..

All centre backs!

Coleman will be 'Club Captain', although no longer expected to play. Tarkowski is team captain, on a regular basis, if he plays.

Not according to Everton.

[IanMcL]

Not according to Everton.

Not sure what the dispute is.
Coleman is captain on paper but not in team and at 36, unlikely to replace O'Brien, bar injury to O'B. Tarkowski captain the team on the pitch, until the blue moon.

There isn’t a dispute, Coleman is captain.

[Selby Claret]

Not club but Chris Wood is NZ captain

[Greenmile]

All centre backs!

..and Ben Mee could well be the next one, I reckon.

Does anyone have any stats on captains by playing position? I would imagine centre halves and central midfielders are probably the most common.

[DanH90]

Tarkowski is clearly captain during games, so there is a debate. It’s this belligerent tone which winds people up, then throwing the toys out of the pram when someone tries to disagree.

The OP states ' Captains' in the thread title and refers to ' club captains' in the post. There is a difference which it is fair to point out
