2018/19 Seamus Coleman

[Jimmy Grimble]

It's verging on criminal how managers have overlooked this man to give the armband to Phil Jagielka. Seamus embodies everything that is great about Everton with his working class background to his dedication and loyalty to Everton for a decade, to his attitude within the squad and work in the community and relationship with the fans.

I'll lose a lot of respect in Silva if Jagielka walks out (which he will) with the armband tomorrow. Now is the perfect time to make the change. Silva has already decided that Jagielka is not in his starting xi plans when everybody is fit: it simply would make no sense to have him captain when the far superior, in every single way, Coleman is there and first name on the team sheet.

The disrespect is to Jagielka. A good bloke and a very good player over a long period of time. Deserving of the captaincy in my eyes. Seamus would be a worthy successor, but no need to put down jags.

Agreed. Can't blame him for his age.

I think its unlikely Jags will see a lot of game time this season and the same goes for Bainsey. I'd imagine Seamus will wear the arm band a lot from here on out.

 

[Deulofeumygod]

Should be captain today but I bet it’s jags. Hopefully be his last game for a while and Seamus takes the arm band

Pains me that he's not leading the team out

 

[Gwladys St. Glory]

Good game...pity about that pass to Niasse, was probably tired.

I’ve always thought the weakest part of his game, is he lacks a bit of composure when it matters. The niasse pass and in the 1st half when the ball broke to him in the box and he just slashed at it with his left. When we had 3 in the box.

Yeah he's great when he doesn't have much time, but when he does he's the opposite to baines who shows composure with his head up.

Coleman is too much of a head down player tbf.

 

[Osamabindiesel]

He needs to just shoot tbh. Every time he is open.

Baines

Old pals act,yet again!

Just knock it across properly for Niasse.
