2023/24 Seamus Coleman

You’re looking at this the wrong way. Just because they turned up occasionally, when it suited them, doesn’t mean they are Premier League standard. I’d argue that the performance against Villa was more reflective of the attitude and ability.

If they're set up correctly they are superior to most bottom half MFs.

Playing Gueye at times as a number 10 is barmy - if that's what Dyche means by 'fluid' he's wasting these players.

Should have retired. His legacy could very well become the captain that relegated us which would be a shame given his efforts over the years.

 

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

Actually I'd say "pound for pound" our best ever signing!

I mean he's not even close pound for pound to Neville Southall, who was the best goalkeeper in the world for a time and first choice in any all time Everton eleven after his decorated career. But carry on.

It's a close call

It'd be more of a hit to his own head as we all know it'd be nothing to do with him.

Nah not even a bit close tbh. Coleman has been boss but there was a time when Southall was the Messi of goal keeping. It was a mind blowing experience watching him. Never seen anything like him since.

I wouldn't blame him personally, he tries his best every time, but the history books will note him as the captain.

Relegation would be down to the incompetent and unprofessional manner of the boards running of this club.

100% agree. It's a rare thing in football to have your keeper held in the awe and reverence normally reserved for top strikers and playmakers but Nev was am absolute joy to watch. I consider it an absolute privilege that I got to go to Goodison so many times with my Dad in the 80s and see such a fantastic team. And really they didn't have a superstar they relied on to carry the burden, it was all about team balance. But Nev comes close to being that superstar.

I love Seamus mate, but if you aren’t on the wind up. Then all I can say is that you never saw Nev play?

 

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

I mean pound for pound I guess Seamus has been our cheapest failure if we measure it on trophies.

 

[Rita_Poon]

It has to have been said before, though it's only just occurred to me, that we've been screaming for a Coleman replacement for a few seasons cos he's been getting on a bit and now we've signed an even older player at RB.

Seamus comes in and adds leadership soon too.

Happy days.
