2024/25 Seamus Coleman

[Ring master]

Can't find any reference to a specific injury, just people reporting he might be a doubt and a mention that he came off with cramp. Would like to see him start at RB with Young at LB, give Mykolenko a spell on the bench.

Same as Ndiaye - tightness in calf (Both suppose to be minor) so about a month out

 

[GoldenToffee]

Yes & certain news outlets now saying doubtful .... Which is probably rubbish ....

Well it is Everton, the club where bad news almost exclusively turns out to be true.

Still the best RB at the club even if he's getting injured in a comeback game. That's the stark reality of our situation at RB.

I’m not sure mate, going forward yes, but I thought Young has been good the last few weeks.

It's his job as captain to say all that. Maybe you think he should absolve himself of his responsibilities?

I'd rather he absolved himself of his contract.

 

[blueconverse]

Love him but this kind of mentality is a massive issue

 

[Bryan+]

Except it's seamie not seamy - as every seamus in Ireland is called!!!

Fada (lengthens vowel sound) over the e so pronounced shay-me.

Written Séamie.

The pronunciation is still the same, cmon fellas.

Only weird people dislike The Skipper.

Maybe it has more to due with seamus being mid thirties had a leg break in the past 5 years, hrs continuing to experience regular minor injuries and his skills have decline a bit , as a person he's a genuine and considerate human being, was an excellent darting right back who was a dutiful servant of the club. Now age has diminished his best qualities nothing wrong with retiring with honor and taking up a coaching spot

 

[Bluerover]

Happy New Year Seamus! Btw that is Gaeilge for James, Jimmy, Jack, Jacob etc

Our Leader!

I'll tell you who didn't do Seamus any favours: Frank Lampard. Talk about a back handed compliment after that Palace game when we secured our PL place a few season's back bringing him in front of the dressing room and calling him one of the best people he's been involved with in football. That's all people saw Coleman as from then on.

But he's been a fantastic player for us. With Baines on the other side we had a marauding team able to get forward on both flanks. The game against Swansea away in the pissing down rain about 8 years back was the one I'll always recall with Baines and Coleman flying.

We should never forget what he did when he was in his pomp. Some will, of course, but thankfully they are few in number and utter dolts who dont matter.

The rs go on about Robertson and Arnold, (who are excellent fb’s) but Baines and Coleman were as effective in a much worse side. Had they plyed in a side as good as the one Robertson nd arnold had played in they would be hailed s the finest fb pairing in PL history

I wouldn't ever call Arnold an excellent FB. He's a spare arse part of a player IMO. Luckily for him he is an accurate short and long range passer of the ball and players like him will usually be shoe-horned in somewhere. Robertson is a better FB...probably - at his best - better than both Baines and Coleman.

But as a pair Baines and Coleman stand up to any FB combination at any period of the PL era IMO.

Another injury. Time to let it go I'm afraid
