Well Naruto sure can handle a team as a leader, if he can handle the whole village as a Hokage.

And everyone would choose him for a leader, cause he's kind of the hero of the village. But the question is, will he be a perfect Squad Leader. I think he can. But he sure has reasons for which he can't be. Yes, he can talk no jutsu any child willing to go to the dark side, but that was just one child in two or one generation. Can he teach the students that are like him or not like him? Kakashi could teach Sasuke because he reasoned that they were alike. Jiraya seemed to teach Naruto because they were similar in a way.

But Naruto is simply not like any other genin, even in this new generation. He's simply different. His attitude of never giving up is too rare, his jutsu spam is thanks to his chakra and the Nine Tails, Rasengan is an extremely difficult jutsu, that Boruto learned because he was an extremely talented genin, and probably Rasengan is in his blood by now and the it seemed he was motivated by both overcoming his father, and being accepted by Sasuke. He could teach some tricks and clever plans but most of Naruto's tricks depend heavily on Shadow Clones and I mean clones as in not just a clone, but as clones, a dozen of them, Naruto's shadow clone usage and tricks are about a number that even a quarter Uzumaki couldn't reach, and we know from Kakashi, an elite Jonin, how much clones be can make. But other than that, I guess there would a bunch of tricks and jutsus that Naruto learned after the war that can be taught even to the simplest genin. LaughingLyon wrote: What don’t you like?? Not that I don't prefer Konohamaru, but just that he isn't so far upto being a squad leader among the main characters. I don't blame him, but his character is still not well shown. It just repeats the unfair pattern of Hokage canditates.

While Kakashi had relation to both Sasuke and Naruto, atleast towards their family. Kakashi was the student of Naruto's father, and the teammate of both Sasuke's clan member and his elder brother in Anbu. And the if you take a closer look, Kakashi is sort of a mix of both of them, as in he's clever, tricky and cheerful like Naruto, and uses Shadow Clones just like Naruto, while he's also talented, calm and is a genius just like Sasuke, and has the Sharingan just like Sasuke and there's alot of other features he resembles to both of them. While you can say, he cares for both of them, just like Sakura and sort of things like that.
