2024/25 Seamus Coleman

[Goodisongang]

I get why hr doesn't wanna retire for Ireland, he loves it and so he should.

We as a club should have told him though, you need to retire if you want a new contract, this is just daft now this

 

[BlueShark]

is anyone surprised?

Not in the slightest. Just expecting O'Brien to get cropped now.

 

[Cally66]

Ffs!

 

[knowing your history]

Boot off so looks like a metatarsal and 2-3 months off.

It was a huge error to give him a new deal as meant there wasn't the scope in finances to sign a new RB and now it's just down to Young again or playing someone out of position.

Four games into a season that isn't good planning at all.

 

[Davideeyore]

International. Ireland v England. Guess which club has a player injured?

We need an club exorcism.

 

[Bayboy]

O'brien surely not ready to face England ?!?!

 

[GrandOldSte117]

It’s his fault he hasn’t retired from these pointless fixtures.

Everton over country?

 

[Miked1e]

Watch O Brien pick up a knock now

Not sure it makes a difference… Keane will still be picked ahead of him when fit

 

[formerly manx toffee]

Is O’Brien playing RB now, or CB ?

 

[ford_uk]

If we were a serious club, there's not a chance we'd be allowing him to play in these "friendlies"

 

[chippy1722]

Not his fault he hasn't been replaced tbf

He’s done us a favour for about the last 5 years, we would have had no one. Looks like Youngs a guaranteed starter a few months now.

 

[knowing your history]

It’s his fault he hasn’t retired from these pointless fixtures.

ROI have little chance of making World cup and he's 36 in October so no clue why he's still out there unless he just fancied the England game as a sort of farewell/testimonial type appearance.

Now it's blown up and Dyche will have yet another excuse in his presser before the Villa game.

 

[GoldenToffee]

He's no Everton legend the amount of times he's got himself injured for his country and earned millions from Everton in spite of injuries. Can't wait to see the back of him.

 

[MikeH72]

Everton over country?

Yes. I keep getting told he loves us and would do anything for us.

 

[chippy1722]

If we were a serious club, there's not a chance we'd be allowing him to play in these "friendlies"

If we were a serious club he wouldn’t be in our squad.
