How can you say 'better suited' to Tennant when we've never seen him with Capaldi to compare. He worked brilliantly with both Eccleston and Tennant, and Moffat almost put him in an episode with Matt Smith, so the evidence to me and also my personal opinion is that he works with any doctor. They are all the same man after all.

People were saying there wasn't a place for River with 12, yet it worked brilliantly. When the paternoster gang were in Capaldi's first episode, I'm sure there were people before the episode saying that they couldn't picture it and that they should have stayed in 11's era. Similarly, people could have said the same of Kate Stewart and Osgood, Clara, The master etc.
My point is that it's always hard and strange to picture an established character with a new incarnation of the doctor, but then it happens and in general tends to work just fine and gives more credibility and a strong reminder to the fact that they are always the same man.
