Roy Hodgson explained his decision to hand Wilfried Zaha the Crystal Palace captaincy for the first time in a competitive game today, talking through his thought process before the Eagles take on Manchester United.
He told Sky Sports pre-match: "There's no Scott Dann, there's no Luka Milivojevic, there were of course other candidates. Mama [Sakho], had he probably played more games and been with us for a longer period of time, would have been a candidate too.
"But I thought it would be good to give Wilf the captaincy today.
