QPR boss Neil Warnock reckons it was a no-brainer making Joey Barton his new captain.
The former Newcastle United midfielder was handed the armband on his debut as Rangers drew 0-0 with the Magpies at Loftus Road last night.
And Warnock believes it was the right decision for Barton to replace Adel Taarabt as skipper.
He said: "I thought Joey handled himself well. He was pushing us all the time. It was the logical thing really [to make his captain].
“Adel was bright about it and appreciates how far we've come. We need to drive on and to do that we need someone who's our leader.
“I thought he [Barton] epitomised what we're about."
