I don't like the idea of Kane being captain with the extra responsibility and pressure it puts on him, speaking as a Spurs fan. I can see why he'd be touted though. There aren't many England players you can say are and will be first choice in the team over a long period.
I don't think it really matters that much who the captain is, if someone is shouty then a captain's armband probably wont change them, and if someone just likes to get on with the job then, again, the armband wont really change them that much.
But I do have one stipulation, it should be someone who isn't that likely to be dropped. Now I don't think there is anyone in that squad who fits that bill, no one's place is secure. So failing that it should probably be someone who is established and senior, so it doesn't lead to resentment from the other lads. Joe Hart seems to have grown up a bit since his move to Italy so I'd stick with him for now, I think Southgate has got that one right.
