Didnt watch the game, what did the injury look like it was?

He walked off @Goat

(Last time I checked you weren't female so safe to tag )

Probably just a bit swollen they said they'd monitor it

 

[Neiler]

Walked off say be alright for 96 mins on Tues Vs Greece.

Enough to end your game but nothing serious hopefully.

Evening mate.

As a rep for the women's institute in my local area and a staunch feminist it saddens me to receive messages from female members of the forum asking me to take action about your behaviour towards them.

This is just an initial warning at this stage and I'd prefer it to go no further as I'm possibly one of your biggest supporters on here, but we will be monitoring the situation.

The club get insurance payments on wages for injuries sustained on international duty.

I’m not arguing about valid criticism but for someone who gives his all for club and country I just think it’s harsh to come down hard on the lad.

Fair enough, his wages will be covered , but his rehab won't be, that's on the club.

And no mate he doesn't give his all for club and country - that's bs, he gives a half to each, which guarantees he will break down for both.

Is any blue at all surprised he's now injured - nope

Has by going on international duty he now left us likely playing young at RB yup, so he's hurt the club's chances for the immediate.

Sorry but the longer he tries to think he can do both the more tarnished his reputation will become here

 

[bluestevon]

You don't know "what I do" at all. That is you

Nah you're a top economist lad, who doesn't understand a thing about it besides what esk spouts

 

[Damo_1878]

He won't play Tuesday but will be available next weekend

Is my betting. @Goat

 

[riddick]

It's just crazy that our "best" RB has gotten injured the last...what, 4 out of 6 years for his country yet he doesn't retire from international duty?

 

[Big Sams Undies]

Well I disagree with that, I would wager some top clubs were absolutely in for him, and that's the problem with him continuing and ruining his reputation as one of the better premier league full backs in his prime, people are forgetting he was very very good.

No they weren’t.

If they had been, it’d have been headline news. “Plucky Everton receive bid for top fullback”.

Never happened because nobody rates him that highly and rightly so.

 

[Zatara]

Thought Seamus played quite well until the last quarter. Still far superior to Young and Patterson. Both going forward and defensively. This was easily our most creative game for months, before the capitulation, when quite frankly several much younger players looked dead on their feet. A few people seem to have had an agenda with Coleman for years, if a few more team members had his professionalism and attitude we might not be in this position.

"Agenda" meaning that posters have stated:

1: He's not worked on his game in a long long long time, for example; crossing and defending?

2: The 'rallying cries' from one of our poorest performers for many years

3: Eagerness to play for Ireland in multiple meaningless games while injury prone for his club -- shades of Slaven Bilic?

Certainly not superior to Patterson in any way shape or form. The only thing they have in common are injuries.

Yeh his professionalism and attitude to stopping crosses is wicked.

Stopping crosses and making crosses.

I mean he's better than Young but then again who isn't, and still -

Agenda against him - no, there's an agenda against his play, which is turd and has been for a while, but he's a 'top blue' as we know, so he must play and every mistake he does must be excused because... reasons.

He's also not our best right back by any metric by the way, and hasn't been for ages, but "there's an agenda against Patterson" too so

It seems to me that he should be behind both Patterson and Dixon.

Its whether Dyche wants to keep his job.

He'll be trotted out for two 90-minute competitive fixtures for Ireland in just four days, then come back to the club that has made him a multimillionaire and be knackered or even unavailable completely for our crucial game against Aston Villa. What a man, what a legend.

Superb prediction

He was kept on cos he wages have dropped and save money buying a new full back. Decisions like this could take us down. I'm hoping the idea is for Dixon to stake his claim and Coleman as his mentor.

Lets hope Colemans off pitch 'mentoring' is far, far, far superior to his failed on pitch captaincy.

From Glasgow are you?

No agenda with Patterson whatsoever. He has had his injury problems, but doesnt seem to have regained his initial promise and appears to have fallen behind Seamus and Young in the pecking order (and even Godfrey last season) when he's been available. So, I'm not sure what metric you're talking about.

Hopefully, he'll regain his form and "his day will come" as some of you like to say up there.

Surely you can see that Pattersons performances have been far superior to Colemans? Dixon who apparently wasnt near the first team is a better option than Coleman.

If we had a manager that didnt select based upon 'premier league (failed) experience then Coleman would be 3rd choice at best and have left the club years ago at worst.

So, you think he's always conceeded lots of crosses, yet has managed a 15yr career despite that? That's both contradictory and complete waffle?

One of the scored headed crosses on Saturday was from our left. The one from our right was a deeper cross and therefore not entirely his responsibility, with a tap in at the back post where our left back had lost his man.... all Seamus' fault?

Coleman cant cross and cant defend crosses. In his entire career that has been something considered as fact.

Coleman is also an Everton player.

Why are you accusing me of sectarianism? I merely said he's lost form and fallen down the pecking order. All well documented. I also said that hopefully he regains that initial promise. So you can F off with your accusations.

Coleman shouldnt have been given a contract extension by Kenwright during his bad injury many years ago.

He may be an Everton player as you correctly point out...but if anything, his captaincy will be remembered and should be remembered as an utter failure.

Many ex pros choose to retire when they know their legs have gone. Coleman and the manager are to blame for him still being on the books and even the bench let alone playing.

No one can say with a straight face "The club has no money". Not when wasting wages on Coleman and Young.

 

[Zatara]

Anyway back to Coleman.

Great lad, good servant, a proper club legend, but should`ve hung his boots his up last season.

Young should`ve done the same three seasons ago.

He's not a "servant" and is no way near being a "club legend".

Come on mate...

He's old and not as good as he used to be.... but had a decent game on Saturday till the lasr frw mins. Doesn't seem to have any problem keeping the youngster out

There lies the problem, he's being picked over other superior players.

He was doing more than rallying the troops for most of the game. We were far more joined up than the previous league games. He was flagging a bit by the end, but so were several others.

If there is anything more laughable about Coleman it's his "rallying the troops".

Especially when he's the worst or one of the worst on the pitch...

...the Coleman 'rallying cry' in the media lol

It shows how far out of touch that dressing room was and probably still is.

 

[Zatara]

He’s done us a favour for about the last 5 years, we would have had no one. Looks like Youngs a guaranteed starter a few months now.

Is this a joke?

Has to play Patto when fit now.

Patterson or Dixon

Retire from i̶n̶t̶e̶r̶n̶a̶t̶i̶o̶n̶a̶l̶ football you kin idiot.

Fixed it for you.

He's faked an injury and gone off - downs tools as usual when the going gets tough.

Best human on Earth you say?

Horrible little goblin.

Should have this framed and send it to him at the club for Christmas.

This makes absolutely no sense. It’s not up to Coleman to wait until Ireland have a right back he seems good enough to replace him to pop up.

Apparently he loves us and would sacrifice loads for us. He’s an absolute fraudster.

Leader, legend, fraudster.

The lad is absolutely embarrassing himself now at this point.

Is that 100% of starts he’s had so far this season where he’s come off either injured or subbed after returning from injury?

Call it a day and have some dignity ffs. You’re a wealthy fella that doesn’t need the money now.

Some 'servants' are paid millions of pounds, apparently.

Absolute madness allowing him to go was always gonna happen
Hope Dixon get nod for next few games

He's got a massive chance now. Even if he can just give 6/10 performances that would be treble the output of Young&Coleman combined.

Well I disagree with that, I would wager some top clubs were absolutely in for him, and that's the problem with him continuing and ruining his reputation as one of the better premier league full backs in his prime, people are forgetting he was very very good.

Very good a decade ago in the eyes of Evertonians.

No confirmed or likely links to any top clubs in his career.

i have noted that Alan Myers and Julie Hobb tweet about Seamus Coleman for clout

Noticed it tonight and rather appalled by it

Everyone knows what Coleman is and how he is as a person

Why are they constantly tweeting and reminding people? Other than to draw attention to their or promote their "blue credentials"?

It's definitely clout seeking trying to pin their flags to the club captain

Far too much of it goes on and stems back to the Kenwright culture

 

[GoldenToffee]

His reputation is already completely tarnished imo - both his own fault for refusing to step back from Ireland and that of the club in continuing to throw good money after bad on new contracts for him.

He was a good player for us and a superb role model - that's it. He was never one of the best full backs in the league, but he was good for us compared to those that came in the years before him.

But that was literally about six years ago when he was deemed to be a good player. It's been that long that nobody can remember it any more.

We should form a large clique and take turns weekly to post positive messages about Coleman to get lots of followers.

Follow the narrative they are pushing...

Only then can we be accepted into the illuminati.
