What do people think on the captain situation? Do you think Koeman will keep Jagielka on as captain? Perhaps at the end of the preseason he may elect a new captain. Personally I don't think Jags is intimidating enough or vocal enough to be captain material. You want your captain to be contesting every decision the referee makes against your team, you want him to be the player that riles the team up when things aren't going so well. The only player I see in this current team that could possibly be that man is Coleman. He's had the armband before for Rep. of Ireland, and for Roy Keane to say that he stepped up to the plate after being made captain is a huge gesture to the type of character Coleman is. What do you think Ed, and other posters?

I don't mind Jags and he tends to stay calm while at the back he keeps them organised. I would prefer a midfielder as he can influence a little more there but Captains on the pitch that shout and scream are overrated.
As for having a go at the ref. How many times have you seen a ref change his decision because a player had a go at him? usually the ref takes it personally and doesn't give you anything afterwards.

i thought Coleman captained the Rebublic well in the Euros, may be a good choice as captain.

Gotta be Coleman.

CFCAdam if you believe Van Ginkel is an upgrade on Barry it tells how very little you know about football.

Well we were trying to get into Europe the year we come 5th milomj and not only was he a regular, but the stand out player in most of his games. If you get rid of players like him, who will give their all for the club it's a recipe for disaster. I agree he hasn't got bags of ability but you don't know how he will fare under Koeman, as with many other players. I'm more than willing to give any of the players in this squad a chance under new management, especially the ones who want to be here and play for the badge. COYB!

Is it just me or does anyone else think all this criticism of James McCarthy, and wanting to sell him, is completely unwarranted? The lad is everywhere on the pitch, every game he plays he gives 100%, even last season when he was injured he still wanted to play. Granted he didn't have a great season last term (who else did apart from Rom and Barry? ) but he worked his socks off whilst carrying injuries. He showed us what he was capable of in his first season when he was free of injury, and for me he was our player of the season behind Barry that year. He embodies everything that is Everton. His work rate, professionalism and honesty is something that all footballers should aspire to.
