2020/21 Seamus Coleman

[DanEFC92]

Shades of Howard and Phil Neville here.

Can you blame the player when the manager insists on playing them past their sell-by date?

Does he have much of a choice? We've needed a replacement for about 3+ years and recruitment have neglected to bring anyone in.

 

[Brizzletoffee]

Seamus is not a midfield player - wtf play him there!

He’s not good enough RB anymore. His best games/cameos this season have been as an impact sub, when asked to play higher up the pitch.

 

[Nymzee]

Can't wait to hear his next rallying cry.

 

[ah11984]

He can’t be anywhere near the team next season. It’s a real shame when a player who has done a great job outstays their welcome, through no fault of his own.

 

[sd_1992]

Captain of one of the leagues most toxic dressing rooms...

Wouldn’t necessarily believe he has the managers back

 

[dannyboy]

I didn't think he was that bad. I judge his performances by the fact he should be a back up right back. Wanting more than that is obviously going to leave you frustrated with his performances.

I'd also say he hasn't been much worse than Digne on the other flank in recent months.

 

[EFCPaul]

Phil Neville in 2013, actually begging him to retire now for his own dignity. Has become comically bad in the majority of games.

 

[Jim Hopper]

He’s obviously finished, not really his fault the club allowed us to go into the season with just one right back.

 

[Toff33Blues99]

Absolutely awful player. Needs putting out to pasture now. There must be an u23 right back who has the ability to run

 

[Saint Domingo]

Comparisons to Phil Neville are harsh. Neville actually captained teams that regularly made europe. They were greater than the sum of their parts and when they let you down there was normally an immediate reaction.

Coleman has been captain of some of the worst PL Everton teams ever and frankly the most hated bunch of lazy apathetic mercenaries ever who have seen manager after manager fired whilst they’ve creamed in cash.

He was a good player for us up to 13/14 but frankly since then he’s offered nothing and now really needs to leave the club as he’s part of the problem.

 

[rochdaleblue]

Sometimes decent today but sometimes frustrating. Not his best game but can't fault his commitment.

At least he looks like he cares unlike the majority of the team.

 

[Street end man]

Colemans already an Everton legend and in our halls of fame. Lads come back from horrific injury and has still collected MOM's. Past his prime now as most of us will all experience, however Richarlison, Ham-eth, Gomesh and allanne will never reach those heights with this club and need calling out far more than Seamus.

 

[MACCA75]

He’s not a natural footballer and now he’s not a natural athlete, it’s painful to watch.

 

[AdamEFC]

We’ve needed a right back for years, sheer incompetence that we went into the season with the options we had.

 

[EFCPaul]

The "contract for life" comment made me sick. He's played under 4 managers who got sacked and still harps on about standards, how about you look at yourself soft git.

Most games he plays in nowadays it's just uncomfortable watching him struggle as much as he does. The odd good showing here and there shouldn't disguise the fact that he's on the decline rapidly and has been for at least 2 years. Yet Ancelotti keeps playing this nonsense wing-back system to accommodate him. Pathetic.

Needs to move on/retire, and if to achieve that someone at the club needs to have an ugly conversation with him so be it. Happens to players far better than him who achieved far more than he has at other clubs.
