2017/18 Seamus Coleman

Would love to see him get 25-30 minutes against Leicester, Kenny is shattered and Martina is crap.

Give him time and ease him back in. Nice to see him back

 

[Seathestars]

Good news for not only us, him and his family must be delighted, not to mention his Country

Don't forget that within a few days of his comeback there will be those on here saying he is overrated , never recovered from his injury(although he has only a game or two better), that Kenny is better and for those who really see a glass half empty like Dave and NSNO-Chris that Martina is a better right back than him and/or that Alyrdyce has ruined him and only Martinez could get the best out of him.

Actually Seamus, you might be better off staying out injured, you were never as appreciated as much before.,

I can remember lads being aggrieved when he was given a new contract when he was injured.
The fact that the contract was agreed just not signed before he got injured was irrelevant to them

 

[Brisan123]

You could well be right. But Seamus said himself that he feels he's ready to go. There's another friendly behind closed doors over the weekend, or at least an internal 11 v 11 game where he will get more minutes.

I'd expect him to be on the bench for Leicester.

With the amount of players we have we could a 11 vs 11 vs 11 behind closed doors friendly

Reminds me of the old 4 corners game from school. A net at each corner flag. 4 teams. If you concede you're out. Last team standing.

How did he get on last night?

How did he get on last night?

Played 60 mins and looked comfortable. Threw in a crunching tackle in the first half which was encouraging to see, certainly the crowd got a kick out of it!

That's good that the injury hasn't affected his willingness to go full-blooded into tackles.

Up the Irish!

 

[People75]

Exelent player. good to hear that he is on his way.

Anyone else notice how negative Jagielka was about the first team on commentary? Obviously it would be weird if he was saying everything's great, we're gonna rocket up the table, etc, but good grief! Every comment about the first team was from the Moyes school of playing down expectations and plucky little Everton. He seemed frustrated but one comment in particular stuck out for its negativity when he said something to the effect of "well it's one point more for us and denies West Brom [SECOND BOTTOM, MANAGED BY PARDEW, USELESS WEST BROM] from getting three points."

I can't work out if this is ingrained in Jags from the Moyes era or Big Sam's relegation fight material, but it was bloody depressing to hear.

Ease him back in Everton

That injury was horrific

Spot on do not rush, patience.

First game back I know, but how did he look?

Still pacey? Still overlapping>
