Coleman extends Blackpool loan
That should be good for him. He's been a big hit with their fans since his arrival. The question is, will David Moyes deem him good enough to replace Phil Neville next season?
Some fans think he is good enough now
Are you a fan Blue Lou? Assuming that you are, what advantages do you think Coleman has that will see him selected ahead of Neville or Hibbert (or even Heitinga, who has played right back) next season? He has shown that he's a talented player, but Moyes seems like the type of manager that likes to stick with experience.
Out of the current crop of youngsters at Everton, only Rodwell and Gosling seem to be trusted enough by Moyes to play regularly. The likes of Coleman and Duffy seem to be behind him in that respect by a fair bit.
to me, playing Coleman, or Hibbert, at right full frees Neville up to play in midfield, where Moyes prefers him to play.
Pred, I would say that it's more difficult to break into a team as a defender than it is as a forward or midfielder. If you put on a young forward and he has a howler of a game, it doesn't necessarily ruin your team's chance to win the game. If a defender has a nightmare, it will almost certainly have a bigger impact on a game.
With Maraoune Fellaini, Heitinga and Rodwell all able to play in midfield, Moyes reshuffled and stuck Neville at right back. There' no doubt Moyes values Neville's experience - that's why he's captain - but surely Coleman has the same energy and provides the same attacking outlet that Baines does?Quote:

I very much doubt that Rodwell will 'revert' to defence. Duffy is still very young having just turned 18, but he captains the reserves and has shown he can cope with first team duties when he replaced Distin in Athens (remarkably aged 17). I wonder will Moyes give him some chances next season?Quote:

I'm sure Moyes knows what he's at. He's a good manager.
Good opportunity to have a look at Coleman now in the playoff against Forest. Instrumental in the Blackpool goal.
On his way to Wembley.
He played brilliant in both games against forest. . Hopefully if blackpool get into the premier league they can sign him permanetly, he would be great for them
doubt Everton would let him go, he really looks to be a proper player
The rumour is that Everton will give him to Blackpool on a season-long loan as part of the deal that brings Charlie Adam in the other direction.
He was outstanding last night. Nice knowing you McShane!!!!
Full of energy, brave and a proper footballer.
He was a breath of fresh air, too good for the championship.
He should get a call up for the Algeria game. Looks a very good prospect.
First time seeing him play there in the playoff games, was very impressed though. Hopefully will see him break into the International team within the next year or two
I think he's too raw for Trap right now. He has that same tendency that Rafael at United has to run the ball out of position and leave a gaping whole at full back. Granted, he doesn't do it as often, but I think he still has a bit of work to do on his decision-making. He's absolutely electric going forward though - lollipops and all!
He looked ok, but as Charlie said he has a long way to go. Anderson destroyed him on saturday. While he is decent going forward some of his defending was poor enough. I cant understand why Billy D started Tyson ahead of Ando on Tuesday night.
Maybe Coleman will end up making a better RWM than a RB.Quote:

All the money on offer and the parachute payments after relegation would have been nice. However you have to remember that two seasons ago they were in league 1 and last season they just about survived relegation back to that league. It came as a total surprise that they pushed for one of the 2 automatic promotion spots until the last 10 games of the season, where ultimately failure to invest in any players in January resulted in their poor run-in. They will have different expectations this year and none of the relegated teams should be anything to fear.
I myself would rather see them strenghten their squad with some players that have actually experience of playing in the Premership and take one of the automatic promotion spots, rather than getting a trashing every week in the Premership. They also have a very young squad that will have learned a lot from this season.
Just signed a new contract with everton until 2014

Kevin Sheedy (U18 Coach at Everton) on Coleman (and THAT goal) from 0:50 - 6:05
Great news about coleman, he was back in killybegs last week, great that they are letting him get home as often as possible. A few lads were saying nothing different about him since they last saw him, still the same level headed down to earth fella. Fair play to him for taking the opportunity with both hands, looks like the move to blackpool worked really well for him as well.
God bless Donegal, they're doing something right up there. For the county's population they have had a few prominent internationals in recent years, Bonner, Given, eh......Doherty and hopefully Coleman. Im sure there is one or two more in the last 20 odd years but cant think of them right now.
ya its funny its the first from south/south west donegal in a long time though, killybegs is cut right down the middle though but ive been told he played both sports all the time. MY flatmate played against him in a minor county final in gaa and with him on minor and said he was always one that you could imagine as being a good soccer player as well and was the difference on their team what won teh game for them. I think he mentioned proctor or someone else being really good as well, the fella who came back from sligo to finn harps i think. So hopefully a few more get the chance like seamie. Know a good few from kilcar/killybegs going to the game today hopefully he has a great game.
Is the playoff final on today or tomorrow ? Come on seamus get a last minute winner ;)
Just kicking off now.Quote:

personally i think coleman might be best to stay with them until at least january on loan to get some guarateed playing time - i'd imagine he'd be a certain starter for them.
then if he impresses enough he could go back with a much stronger case to start for everton.
my worry would be that he'd go back to everton and stagnate a bit if he's just left on the bench most weeks.
probably staying out on loan for another season will do him the world of good,even better if its with blackpool in the premier league,playing against world class players week in week out....he looks great going forward,not convinced on his defensive capabilities yet,saw him play twice for everton,that game against spurs when he changed the game after coming off the bench and the game against benfica in europa league where he was quite poor albeit playing at left back in a make shift defence....hopefully he will continue to improve,tony hibbert isn't the greatest full back in the PL so he may get a chance at everton sooner rather than later
rory delap is ours too!Quote:

I know a lot of his game still needs developing but even at this point in time his inclusion would be better than McShane.
was it just me, or did that bit seem like a part p1ss take?Quote:

Wiki describes Rory's Donegal uncle as an "anti Government activist".
I thought that sounds interesting but apparantly the Wikipedia author has a very strange understanding of the label "anti government activism".
Rory's uncle helped raise €400k for a cancer charity, then he asked the Government for matching funds and was refused.
I suppose it's all in the way you "ask".
Firstly, drill 2 holes in the collection bucket and place it over your head.
nah that was/is genuine enough, he has a lot of family in letterkenny. his cousin did a bit of teaching in our secondary school, she wasnt much good at it though!Quote:

STAR MAN: Seamus Coleman was a constant threat and showed his usual energy and fearless spirit.
Tony Hibbert hinting Coleman could get more first-team action than anticipated:
http://www.liverpoolecho.co.uk/evert...0252-26953521/Quote:
He said: “I’m happy to play anywhere the gaffer asks. If he wanted me to play left-back, centre midfield, and up front I’d do it. I want to play and it’s just wherever he asks me.
“Seamus is coming through and he’s got to play games.
“It was another learning curve for me to switch to left-back and see what I can do out there.
“You can’t ask Seamus to play there.
“He is a brilliant talent and I don’t think we’d want to push him out of position when he looks so good.”
judging by that comment Everton wont be too keen to loan him out again so
BBC Gossip section cites the Blackpool Gazette saying that Blackpool boss Ian Holloway admits he is unlikely to be able to bring Everton defender Seamus Coleman back to the club after the 21-year-old Irishman impressed in the Toffees' pre-season games.
I know he's young, and its not fair to ask him to make his debut against Argentina, but I'd be looking to give him a start in the qualifier with Andorra
