Five players who could replace Coloccini as captain
Jonjo Shelvey
This is the man the Express penned an article about, claiming Jonjo Shelvey had been awarded the captain’s armband.
He is an unusual choice for many, not least because he only joined Newcastle United in January from Swansea City – but at least he has experience of leadership, as he was the skipper for England U19 for a period of time.
Whether or not he could come in and help lift the team away from the relegation zone is another matter.
