2017/18 Seamus Coleman

[Rollo Tomassi]

Hilarious from the medical professionals chiming in. I guess all the doctor's told Sam, "no he's not ready" but Sam insisted. Is that why we should blame him? Or is it because you already checked the results in several alternate universes, and so you know for a fact that another two weeks would have meant that he never got injured again?

If a bus got hit by a meteor, you guys would blame the bus driver.

We couldn't blame Allardyce for that as the bus would still be parked

When Baines is back next match, move Martina to the bench.

Hope Seamus will come back soon...

Fixed that for you.

'Gutted', yet your first post on the matter is a 'told you so' post, poor.

Your vaulting isnt without its flaws either, why pull up a discussion we were having about the Leicester game, I'm still glad he played that night, we might not have won had he not.

Hopefully it's not too bad an injury, there's going to be bumps on the road coming back from that kind of injury regardless of when he was reintroduced.

Not happy to have been proven right. If only Sam had consulted me first.

You weren't proven right though, our discussion was in regards to the Leicester game which he came through unscathed.

You also didn't answer when you believed he should have been introduced back in, which means by your reckoning if he got an injury at any stage you would be proven right.

What’s the news though? A ‘muscle injury’ is all’s we’ve heard. Can anyone expand?

I watched a replay yesterday and seamus got caught on the ball right on the 45min. When he chased after the palace wide man he seemed to be rubbing his qaud muscle after. Not 100% sure about this but if it is his quad it's better thaan a hamstring all day.

2 weeks off in warm weather - hope it ends up being very minor and he is back vs Watford

 

[streeky]

confirmed as a thigh strain. Not as bad news as it could have been.

 

[vedado de eranio]

how long is he out?

 

[streeky]

how long is he out?

2 or 3 weeks if it is strained.

 

[electricblue]

Could be worse. Get back soon Seamie.

 

[vedado de eranio]

thats good news

 

[Armaghtoffee]

Not surprised he picked up an injury. Carrying those balls of steel cant be easy.

 

[ToffeeTim]

Not the worst timing since we have a fortnight off.

Give him a week extra if needed. No point causing long term issues in this write off of a season.

Quite common to get a strain after serious injury. Not really anyone's fault except the guy that injured him in the first place
