You could say Coleman is the very epitome of a wing back in every sense except ever having actually played there.
Seems to me Coleman is the every epitome of a wing back, he plays in the right back position but also regularly gets up the right wing to attack to great effect.
Where as a more conventional full back would mainly consign himself to defensive duties on the right.
Anyhow once the game is started the player goes where ever the play dictates, the actual name of the position is just a vague description of where he stands before kick-off.

Attacking full back anyone?
I prefer the term holding midfielder Stutts.
Not in relation to Seamie, I just prefer it.
DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?
Very nice to see the Hull line-up today. Bruce has departed from 3-5-2 and has managed to accomodated all of his attacking talents in a 4-2-3-1; the 3 comprising of Ben Arfa, Ramirez and Robbie Brady. The more games Brady can get there, the better for Ireland. Injuries and selection issues have halted the progress he made when exploding into the PL over 12 months ago. Prodigiously gifted footballer and one we need to be accomodating in our own line-up.
They're 1-0 up already.
Brady nearly scores with a good right footed effort, well saved by Lloris.
Caught a bit if it where Robbie somehow beat his man on the wing and put in a super ball.
Looked pretty impressive, maybe it will be on the highlights on MOTD.
Shame went down to 10 men, for fighting apparently, not necessary. they were 1-0
up then and lost 1-2
It was a Beckham-esque back heel into vertongen. Utterly pointless, lost the head a bit. The ,ines an wanted to feel important I think. It wasn't violent, more of a narky gesture but every footballer should no that it usually comes with a red card even if it shouldn't warrant one.
In my opinion football's zero tolerance approach to any act of aggression is counterproductive. It invites the opponent to milk it and it all just makes the game look weak.
Was that Brady / Quinn thing actually in the match, or was it messing about st half time?
I didn't see the game, but this implies it was during it...

He is pretty good actor if he was not injured, none of the 3rd rate stuff you see from a lot of players. Indeed there should
be a specific sending off offence of bad acting.
Maybe he could follow Cantona into the movie industry.
I remember him diving pretty badly at the start of last season.
I remember thinking 'jaysus get up will ya, you're embarrassing us Robbie'
Folding my way into the big money!!!
What stage of the game was it at? Were they up 1-0? Just wondering because I think there's a difference between buying your team a little time and actually staying down to try to get somebody in trouble. His dive last season was terrible though.
brady has always seemed to be a 'form player'. he's hit a good patch just now but if he can't be consistent he'll be back on the sidelines again before long.
however, he's at an age where he might find consistency - or at least, how to play at a consistently effective level (if that makes sense) - so fingers crossed.
He'll be back on the sidelines if he actually gets injured in a game.
He's made steady and positive progress since his last surgery and setbacks. Any crossing of fingers should be to do with his continued fitness levels. He has what it takes at this current level, it's just a question of how far he can explore.
Brady falls into a hole and could be out for the season.
This is an almost beyond parody Irish international footballer injury. Ridiculous.
Ou-est le Centre George Pompidou?
Unbelievable!!
"Unfortunately Brady has fallen down a hole in the training ground and it looks an awful injury, I have to say," Bruce said.
Why the hell are there "holes" in the training ground? Bruce says it as if holes in training grounds are common place.
I have never see a hole in training ground you could fall into anywhere.
