It's not arrogance if it's true and in stopping dark wizards Harry
almost always is the best person for the job.

What's wrong with that, every word Harry said was true. Harry had
accomplished extraordinary thing in his short life, for Harry not to
have noticed that he had unusually powerful abilities he would have to
be living in a dream world. And after he had risked his life and
suffered the tortures of the damned for other people it's not
unreasonable to expect a little gratitude, at the very lest expect not
to be despised for it as Harry was during most of OOP.

You said was need a good Slytherin (Phineas Nigellus perhaps?) 
and I agree, we already have a bad Gryffindor, Percy.
