Some of Todays P/C stuff
Marco Silva on FA charge: "I have not received the answer yet. I am here to respect them, I answered them and I am now waiting."
Silva insists he was "never aggressive" with the officials at Newcastle. Adamant he didn't use "abusive words" either
Silva : What you can control in one match is our job. Our big frustration has to be with ourselves. When I made that substitution, we decided to put Mina on to control the first ball. But we as a team have to react in a different way. We must do different in that moment.
Silva: "My players are always behind me. I am the first one to take responsibility
Silva : on Pickford: I’m the first one to take all the responsibility. It’s a matter of collective behaviour. Jordan has all my confidence. In some moments everyone is happy with you, then the same people speak not very good things about you.
Silva on Pickford criticism. I want Jordan to keep working in the same way, with the same desire...with more emotional balance in some moments if he can do.”
Silva on Yerry Mina: "I have to see more consistency, daily, at Finch Farm. I hope to see him working everyday until the end of the season. "It is first season in the PL, it is completely different to everything else in his career."
Silva on fans: If they can repeat (the derby atmosphere), we would be delighted. Could be the key - quality team we play against, we have to show our quality also
Silva confirms Coleman and Baines are fit. Jagielka has a small issue.
