The fact that Seamus has played at the top level for us for 15 years is testament to the man. Sad that some Blues don’t appreciate this, but words from past and current teammates and numerous managers, (including Ancelotti, Lampard, Dyche) show the impact he has and the positive influence he exerts.
Thankfully he’s appreciated by the majority of match-going Evertonians who see more than just stats. His leadership and fight is something we’ve missed in recent games; he galvanises the squad and supporters in the ground. He’s not as young, fast etc as he was, but IMHO his experience is vital. We’re in a battle to stay up and I’d rather have Seamus in there, with us.
