2025/26 Seamus Coleman

[Gwladys St. Glory]

You`re brain 100% works differently than the rest of the population.

I hope you`re going to leave your brain to science, who knows what they`d find.

Something "phenomenal", no doubt...

 

[PhoenixIreland]

I wonder if that red mist descends on Gueye if Coleman is on the pitch at the time?

I somehow think not.

That's his value to Everton as much as playing time from now on.

Deluded.

Absolute waste of a wage now.

Hopefully post-Christmas treats him better....don't want to see him go out on a low.

Starting him is what is causing the lows. I'm amazed Moyes picked him last night. That's surely the end of doing that now.

He's a glorified cheerleader, Dave. He definitely adds something to Ireland because we are a very callow side with a huge quality deficit. His leadership and experience has a role there - albeit a limited one. Remember this: Coleman left the pitch with Ireland 2-1 down in Budapest. He had nothing to do with the miraculous recovery, just as he had nothing to do with last night's miracle.

He spent the whole of the two Ireland matches parked by his own corner flag in a 7 or 8 man defence, a donkey (which is what he is actually) could do it.

When he got the ball he either kicked it out, kicked it backwards or kicked it straight to the other team (as usual). He offered precisely ZERO in an attacking sense, par for the course.

He's scored one goal for Ireland in about 15 years and that was a total fluke although I'd give him 10 out of 10 for determination in that particular play, to be fair.

As for influence in either dressing room, any young player with half a brain would want to swerve his tired line of patter (and I'd say most of them do) it's getting old at this stage and frankly weird.

We need winners in both teams not perpetual losers. Can't wait to see the back of him, he's like the turd that never flushes.

I don't think he'd have started if he wasn't feeling right and would've told Moyes so; was probably on a high from the last couple of weeks...but, at his age, more happens at that level. He didn't crawl off the field but might've felt enough to know he shouldn't push it. Who knows.

 

[Lawrence]

His race is run. No more now please.

On a night were we’re we beat Manchester United, who were on a winning run, away from home and in a game which saw one of our players sent off because he hit a team mate people feel the need to round on Seamus Coleman. I really don’t get it. Some people do seem to seek the negatives in a position situation.

 

[Tennessee Blue Mike]

Needs to work on his coaching badges. Great servant but the body can’t compete any more.

 

[Gallaeo]

Should have been given a coaching role. If pushed Young would have been a better choice but JO’B and Garner better options temporarily til we finally (what 8 yrs later?) finally replace him

Thanks, but no thanks.

 

[GoldenToffee]

I mean, he's lots of form for either picking up injuries on international duty, or coming back from international duty and then getting injured because he's been overworked due to his lack of minutes for us — it's hardly rocket science.

That said, I've never seen as many players talk about his leadership as much as I have this season, so I am fine with him still being here.

But he shouldn't be starting games for us when we have Garner who can go to right back and Iroegbunam who can slot into midfield. Obviously that's not a first choice option, not better than starting an unreliable Seamus.

I hope he has gone and been doing a lot of work towards getting his coaching badges by now considering how much time he has spent out of the team the last few seasons.
