PEH would be my choice as captain.
In fact, I'd have him as captain now.
I don't see how a goalkeeper can captain a side on the pitch to the same extent that an outfield player could.

Overlook Kane as Captain and he will be off. If the position is available it has to go to Kane.
I'd rather he stays, simply because it is not going to be easy to replace his quality. Goalkeepers can continue longer than outfield players, so a three year deal wouldn't be unreasonable. However, if he wants to go, then as long as we get a decent deal for him, then let him go. I don't want anyone on the payroll who isn't 100% committed to the Club, and that goes for every player.
You might be right but that would seem very odd to me:
2015 - No trophies.
Kane: 'I'm staying. Come on you Spurs!' (kisses the shirt)
2016 - No trophies.
Kane: 'I'm staying. Come on you Spurs!' (kisses the shirt)
2017 - No trophies.
Kane: 'I'm staying. Come on you Spurs!' (kisses the shirt)
2018 - No trophies.
Kane: 'I'm staying. Come on you Spurs!' (kisses the shirt)
2019 - No trophies.
Kane: 'I'm staying. Come on you Spurs!' (kisses the shirt)
2020 - No trophies.
Kane: 'I'm staying. Come on you Spurs!' (kisses the shirt)
2021 - 'Harry, we're giving the captaincy to PEH.'
Kane: 'Fuck you. Fuck this shit. I'm leaving.'
Im not one to make rash judges, but fucking hell
2 nice saves followed by 2 brain farms
We need a keeper in the summer with 12 months left.

Takes the blame for two goals tonight, but not wanting him replaced yet. Still a great keeper.
The best keeper in the League is at Fulham.
Get In someone like onana or donnarumma who will have 10+ good years
Fully agree we have a captain who crumbles time after time in big games especially against Liverpool and City jsut look back over the last 5 years or so.
Onana or Maignan , Donnarumma is worst than Lloris for the pass .. do you want Dier or Rodon scoring in our goal?
Ship him off to PSG and bring in Pope who actually doesn't shit his pants at the sight of Salah.
Sure the defence are ropey but they could do with a strong leader behind them. Hugo is mute, he should be directing what's in front of him. Especially so as he's the captain
Areola & Pope
He has been a good servant for the club but I think it's time to say good bye. His prime days are over sadly.
He has gone from commanding his area to barely commanding his 6 yard box.
He causes panic in our area and many of the set piece goals we concede are down to lack of leadership.
Good keepers can be heard screaming at their defenders at all set pieces Hugo is like a fucking mouse.
And his distribution is of of the worst I have ever seen he barely reaches the half way line with his goa[ kicks.
He alone cost us the first 2 goals tonight
