#4 Everton would be wise to look beyond Phil Jagielka
Trending
While Jagielka has been a fine servant for the club since joining them, his performance on the evening suggests that Everton would be wise to look beyond him.
With age catching up, his pace has slowed down and on numerous occasions in the evening, looked a liability in Everton’s backline.
Jagielka conceded two penalties on the evening and could be deemed responsible for the City equaliser as he failed to track the movement of Nolito into the box. A leader who has performed at the highest level for over a decade now, Jagielka still has a lot to offer in a bit part role.
In Funes Mori and Ashley Williams, he has 2 centre-backs who could function effectively as a pairing and there’s a possibility that he could hand the pairing more game together in the future.
