I think my description was better than actually seeing it tbf
Great play by Davis and well finished by Seamus......
Coleman shrugs off Delaney to score from tight angle @ 0:23.

He's scored a few goals similar to that one.
Good to see him playing in a more advanced role.
No defender has scored more Premier League goals this season (excluding penalties) according to MOTD.
One of his best, he aims that one right at the keeper face I think, not a bad idea.
Proof there is life after Sligo Rovers
I do think it would be remiss of him not to move to a Champions League team in the Summer he isn't getting any younger and I think it's a case of now or never. He need only look at his full back partner who was linked with the likes of Bayern Munich but never moved
Good finish. The Palace guy's shenanigans over his "injury" were pathetic, as was Allardyce's reaction to it. And which game was it ('boro?) where the guy just sat down with a minor injury, leaving his opponent unmarked and leading to a goal? Unreal.
That was Kabasele of Watford for Bournemouth's equaliser. He should get thrown straight on the transfer list.

It makes perfect sense too seeing as Man Utd just extended Antonio Valencia's contract and Mourinho claimed that he's the best right back around!
Coleman unambiguously dismissed the United rumours earlier: http://www.punditarena.com/football/...united-switch/

Another one for Seamus Goalman although it sounds like it was a bit of a messed up cross that may or may not have been an own goal or an offside goal. Will probably get to see it during the half time break...can't wait!
So he got the ball in the box on the right hand side, cut in on his left foot and hit a weak one that was aimed for the far post. Shawcross stuck out a body part and it deflected off him into the net. Was called offside as they though Lukaku had got the last touch (and it looked that way on de telly) but was correctly given in the end.
On another note, I think it was Glenn Whelan who pumped a long pass forward to Arnautovic who set up Crouch. Was a great pass if it was him. Aimless hoof if it wasn't.
goal changed to a Ryan Shawcross OG :(
I think Seamus is a bit unlucky there with it being given as an own goal, I think it was probably on it's way in anyway.
Hard to be certain though.
Also looked like a shot to me more than a across but the sensible thing is to aim you cross inside the post.
Would he get an assist?
Who gave it as a Coleman goal? Was pretty obvious live it was an OG. It was either going wide or going to hit Lukaku so has to be an own goal.Quote:

Well then it was definitely an OG :)
Then is it downgraded to an assist for Coleman?
It would be, yeah.
LiveScore.com had it as Coleman's originally too.
If the goal counted, I think that would have been just the second round of football in which Irish players scored more than Scots in the PL this season.
if only there were a way to prove that.Quote:

Which, of course, there is - https://www.premierleague.com/results
Get to it.
Gameweek 6 and Gameweek 18 but I think the real question is why would we compare ourselves to the Scots, or in particular why do you continue to do so. It made sense when they were in our group but why now?Quote:

I just think it's a peculiar anomaly. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't trade our qualifying record for theirs.
Stats are a bit better if you look back to when football was invented in 1992Quote:

Might stick the 94 in sporcle and see how people get on.
That would be some way to waste a day :-) name the 94 Irish premier league scorers!
Robbie has scored 13.5% of the Irish total (since football was invented).
What percentage did he score before football was invented?
Those are letters, tets.
From the age of 5 onwards, with his prodigy cred already established, Robbie was too busy planning out his football career.Quote:
