I make Silva the eighth manager to make him captain, after Moyes, Martinez, Koeman, Unsworth, Allardyce, Warnock and Hodgson. He's not a leader though apparently.

He will be very comfortable so there is no need to organise a charity game for him.

He has had enough money off us already.

I’ve cooled off a lot, but I still want Jags nowhere near the team. I saw it in preseason on THREE occasions where he simply fell to the ground after nothing but a simple shoulder challenge. It’s not his fault that the manager picked him (tbf to Silva there really wasn’t another option apart from an injured Holgate), but we need to phase him out ASAP. It’s just something that needs to be done for the sake of the club.

It's like the scene from Breaking Bad with Todd convincing his uncle Jack not to quit the meth game while they still had gallons of methylamene. Just Jagielka is Todd and Uncle Jack is Marco Silva, and Jags wants to stay and bleed the club dry, while Marco wants rid.
Jags:
Wait, Uncle Marco, hold up. I think we should keep me around for a while, get a couple of months under my belt before we introduce Yerry and Kurt.
Silva:
You seriously giving me this turn-the-other-cheek crap? The fans have sussed you out. Personally.
Jags:
I've still got one year left on my contract at 80 grand a week.
Marco:
Contract? Who gives a s*** about a contract? You won the lottery here! You've got all the money in the world. You're talking to me about sticking around?
Jags:
I mean, this is millions, Marco. No matter how much I got, how do you turn your back on more?
[Marco stares at Jags knowingly.]
Marco:
You little… son of a bitch. It's that Michael Keane fella! [putting his arm on Jags's shoulder] You're sweet on him, you little barsteward! [to Dunc] Hey, Dunc. You believe this?
Which was the correct decision.
Jagielka's mistake cost us the other day. Ultimately that's the issue.
Whether it's a red or not is subjective. I'd like to think most sensible refs would give it as a booking.
What isn't acceptable is the fk being moved at least 5 yards further forward, and him - nor his linesman - not noticing.
Clear push.

Capt Jags has enjoyed my championing his inimitable leadership qualities in innumerable postings...

I saw 2 or 3 similar challenges over the weekend, exactly the same, or even worse.
Sterling did one and the tv just said it was because 'he's rusty'.
I actually thought it was a deffo card, whatever colour with Jags.
The placing of the free kick made it a far better position for a player like Neves.
From the right spot, Pickford saves it.
Being discussed on SSN right now actually.

Oh, I totally agree.
It's a late penno at Anfield though..
We've all seen them not given haven't we.

The fact we haven't appealed is mad. We just lie down and accept injustices like we did with Niasse last year. We have effectively said we agree with the referee. I'm baffled.

No point appealing because the FA would only throw out the appeal and award the RS three additional points as part of our punishment.
