2022/23 Seamus Coleman

[dutchblue54]

indeed an absolute legend to the club. hope he comes back and can still play next season whether it is in the PL or Championship.

His presence on the pitch last night had us 10 yards further up the pitch and dominating that side for almost 45 minutes.

His contribution to attack as well as defence will be badly missed on the run in. There is literally no one who comes close to him who gives us what he gave us.

I'm amazed that there's been absolutely zero mention of the tackle in the aftermath. It was a shocking tackle.

I just know if the roles had been reversed Seamus would have got a straight red - that is not paranoia either.

Refs are clearly out to do us - the conversation reported recently where a ref told his linesmen to watch for a particular Everton player who was prone to simulation proved what I have been suspecting for some time

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

Thanks for everything Sheamus

Fought until his last footballing breath for the club

 

[GoldenToffee]

All hope is not lost. He can be a huge presence in the changing room and on the touchline for the rest of the season.

Could we add an assist to Michael Keane too for that hospital pass he sent to Shamus -

Was it Keane who passed it to him Joey?

of course it was
every player's dream teammate is Calamity Keane

Before his injury I thought he was by far our best player. He was excellent .

He was right up for the fight last night, very vocal.

Absolute sickener that injury, just not the way anyone would want his Everton career to finish, especially if we get relegated.

 

[Joey66]

Was it Keane who passed it to him Joey?

Yep-

 

[Khalekan]

I couldn’t place any other player above him since my first match in 1974 as to loyalty and commitment.

One man who springs to mind from that era is Mick Lyons.

Mick and Seamus….cut from the same cloth.

 

[Neiler]

Proper Blue and club man, when they are scant on the ground in our current squad and probably in football in general.

Sad end to his career with us, but like the blue he is and was fitting he went down fighting and leading by example.

 

[davidloach]

Can’t believe the announcer said there was no malice in that tackle. Just wild to me nobody is even pretending to be impartial

 

[Baggzio]

Still absolutely gutted for Seamus. You know he's the type of lad as well that would blame himself if we went down and wished he could do more, despite the fact that at 34 and after all he's been through he's still been one of our best again this year. Taking my hat off as an Everton fan at the moment there are absolutely players in this squad that deserve nothing more than to be relegated and get a reality check, the entire ownership structure and board deserve to be relegated for how they've operated the club.

Seamus Coleman though, he does not deserve the absolute dishonour of being the Everton captain that saw them relegated, not only would it be a disaster and nightmare for us fans, it would be a true insult and disrespect to one of our greatest servants in decades. If I'm Dyche my team talk is simple, as players do whatever you want to do in the summer however don't you even dare to allow a great man and fellow player like Seamus watch on from the sidelines as you take his club down.

I don't know how any player could not just look themselves in the mirror but ever look at Seamus in the eyes again after that if they allow us to sink when he's poured his life and career into this club. They should feel shame that not only did they let themselves down but they've let an Everton great down too.
