To be honest, International Football is not really my thing, but it seems that the Irish game is in a bit of trouble if they only have Seamus Coleman to rely on for their first choice right-back.

2024/25 Seamus Coleman
- Thread starter ste d' indica
- Start date
Seamus Coleman is Irish and sleeps in Celtic pyjamas, the 2 main reasons why there is so much adulation for him on these pages. I don’t need to imagine what those jingoistic posters would think of him if he was English.
I think he’s a lovely bloke that doesn’t want to admit his body is broken and hasn’t been at the required level for a few years, no shame in that as it comes to all elite level athletes. Some players have the grace to bow out, others (Seamus included) tarnish their reputation by trying to cling on when they are physically finished.

You realise you can reduce your "back luck", by playing less, in your mid 30's, when you have a history of breaking down.

This applies if he's avaliable for most of the games and being out with an injury is a rare occurrence. That can happen whether it's for club or playing for your country. The issue is it's abnormal for Coleman to string more than 5 games together nowadays (I say nowadays, the last 3 years more like) and thus he should be limiting the amount of games he plays, that means international retirement.
If Ireland had a massive game and he was the only right back available then fair enough for him to go, it's these glorified friendlies that don't matter one jot that he is pushing to play when he hasn't even played one complete game for us this season is just a nonsense.

What is back luck?

The amount of times I got injured, it’s part of the game unfortunately
But did you get injured in a rec league while being paid (handsomely) by an actual team? Because that's what happened every single time now.

I'm not sure it is luck. I just don't think his body is up to it any more. When he picked up his horror injury, years ago, it was luck. Now it's just decrepitude.

He was fine for the majority of the Bournemouth game- he is better than Young. But just like in the Bournemouth game, I don’t think his body can handle this kind of intensity anymore. He can start in a pinch and come off the bench, but he shouldn’t be near a weekly starting spot anymore (same for Young). It’s like the universe is screaming at Dyche right now. Young red card and Coleman crock pot supper

I didn’t watch it…was it an impact injury e..g from a tackle or did he pull up, twist something?
