2023/24 Seamus Coleman

[Tony’s Carp]

Fine with another year. It's clear that his contribution within the squad extends to much more than just what he does on the pitch. Salary should be realistic and in line with the contribution he can realistically make, but I'm sure someone of his character will recognise that.

Leading us out final game at Goodison then enjoying a testimonial at the new ground would be a fitting way to finish.

 

[BluePaul86]

Said a while back that all the out of contract players will be offered new deals due to the financial position of a club and likelihood of being unable to bring in any new players.

 

[windymiller]

I hope that is on a substantially reduced wage, although I assume that will not be the case.

 

[AsiaAsia82]

£60k remember.
And with the thinnest squad ever.
Having him if needed is fine with me.

 

[charlie atkins]

Has he had a testimonial, be nice to see happy people at the old lady

But he's never available so it's just wasted wages. How many separate blocks of time off injured did he have this season? About 5?

 

[MACCA75]

Was always going to be offered one more year. No problem with that tbh.

 

[ArtetaMoney]

He’s been crap/injured for about 5 years. Pointless contract extension.

Can’t see us offering all the out of contract players news deals.

Coleman was probably a given but with his lack of availability this season, it’s more sentimentality and his captaincy rather than for him being on the pitch.

But I doubt we offer Gomes or Dele deals. And there were rumours last month that we weren’t offering Gana a new deal. I’m also doubtful Young gets a new one.

Everyone said we couldn’t bring in players last season then we did. No one has any idea whether we are likely to or not.

 

[maccavennie]

25 appearances last year
10 appareances this year
It'll be less next year

I find it quite disappointing tbh that we're still at a stage needing to offer him another year and him believing he'll still have a major role to play

 

[wandyr79]

Obviously, it would be stupid to pay him too much but I am a football fan not a balance sheet fan. So my opinion of wanting him to stay for another year is solely based on what I know and I know I love the guy so happy that he might be staying for another year

 

[Rich1878]

I guess he will be with us next season

 

[DualityNSNO]

Great idea, he'll no doubt be on symbolic wages as he's gonna be playing less and less.

Right?

Highest paid Cheerleader in the world.

Love Seamus, but I suppose this means Moshiri told them there will be no funds for a RB. Otherwise cant see signing a new RB to go with Patterson if Coleman is also there.
