Dear God,

Thanks for bringing St Seamus back.

A much needed three points this evening, we finally scored a couple of goals in game and arguably could or should have scored more.

It was unnecessarily nervy at times, however with how we've been as of late (well, for months) then it was expected there'd be real concerns.

 

[maccavennie]

I'd normally say give man of the match to the match winner but Coleman's performance was just utterly superb, fantastic. That was an Everton man' performance that, that was for him, for his fsmily, for the fans, it was ridiculous that he' just lasted 95 minutes. A class above and beyond what is expected from a pro footballer.

I honestly can't think of enough superlatives for him.

Rooney got so tired before he gave that pen away - he cannot last 90 minutes!

Should only be given 50 min.

 

[irishtony1878]

80 minutes gone and Delafou is still on, lung transplant must have worked

 

[canuckblue]

Coleman has got better fitness levels than the lot of them, hows this possible

He hasn't been playing and incurring the various knocks and strains that go along with games.

Seamus Coleman, my hero, my mate

 

[Tubey]

Coleman brought that entire team up a level today

How he isn't the captain is a travesty tbh, should have been one 2-3 years ago

One of those that leads by example - doesn't need the armband to do that.

Jagielka obviously shouldn't be associated even remotely with the word "captain" like.

Cracking game of football - but how many times has the woodwork saved us now this season ?

 

[RomanReigns]

man i missed coleman

 

[Toffeelover]

What is it with Davies, runs round okay but there just seems to be some thing not quite there.

Doesn't need ot mate, but IMO deserves it and none of the others could have that said about them really

He's 19 mate

That was the first time we have seen a team without either Bolasie or Schneiderlin. Maybe we should keep it that way. It seemed Siggurdson had some dangerious passes because he finally had someone to pass to.

 

[JammyP]

Great to have Coleman back
Cuco, surprisingly, MOM - kept us in when it mattered
COYB!
