Tom Cleverley talks about being watfordfc club captain and why he knew there had to be change on and off the pitch
Just a mention of the two words ‘club captain’ to Tom Cleverley and a broad smile broke across his face.
“One part of me says that nothing will change in how I work and I’ll still try to set standards and good examples, but I also can’t hide my delight at being made club captain of a club that I care so much about,” he said. “One of the conversations I had with the gaffer in the summer was about our need to be a club that the staff and our fans can relate to again. Because we lost our way, you can’t hide that,” he said.
“Christian Kabasele was fantastic through the tough times last year, he looks after the French-speaking lads. Dan Gosling and Craig Cathcart are fantastically experienced and are great examples to younger players, William Troost-Ekong is a leader of men and captains his national side. So there will be plenty of people to support me and guide the younger players. There is a really good mix in the dressing room. We’re in a good place.
“I love the gaffer’s ideas,” said Cleverley. “His approach to everything is very modern. He has a system but he can also adapt, and he’s let us know that. On the football side of things I’ve been very impressed. “He touches base with the senior lads on a daily basis and I really think it could be the start of some long-term success.”
