Seamus Coleman

Seamus is within a whisker of the Everton and Irish teams. Once he gets on he won't be displaced.

Ah come on now this is getting a bit out of hand,he hasn't even played a game yet! He's a class player but the one worry id have is his size. Not too many small full backs in the premiership anymore,how will he cope with the likes of stoke for example,where all of their players are big physical lads. Deserves his chance though,great footballer and a sound lad,hopefully he'll get his chance soon.

The 2 best fullbacks in the premiership are Evra and Ashley cole both midgets in comparison to Seamie wouldn't worry about his size , i thought at times he was too eager and lauched himself into tackles he shouldn't of have which resulted in a lot of cards I would expect this would be coached out of him at Everton.

a lot of hope for seamie on here but its spot on he has the talent to be a top defender but most of all his biggest attribute is his attitude. ya could never see seamie being a bentley footballer like some young premiership players. seamies performances while at the showgrounds oozed pure determination to win games and not let players past him. he is in the same mould as rooney as far as attitude is concerned all he wants is too play football and win. if he can get the break of luck in england he will succeed but in football in england talent only gets ya so far the rest is made up of staying injury free, attitude on and off the pitch, fitting into mangers tactics and being liked. how many players have gone to england and just not got the luck when needed. it would be greaat to see seamie line out for the republic in the world cup i dont think anyone who watched him an a sligo shirt would begrude the lad only wish him well for the future

Don't think he is registered for Everton in Europa League, not sure though!

Best of luck to him regardless, hope he stays in League squad and gets his chance soon.

even if he isnt they are aloud register new players after the group stages but i would persume he is included...

**CF1989** · 20/10/2009, 8:09 AM

id say he is included in it, your probably allowed 23 players or something like that, maybe more. if he's not then he will be in it after the group games if they qualify

Seamus was taken off at half time away to Bolton reserves. Wonder why, as he was only on the bench for the first team on Saturday, reserves played last night. Hope it was not an injury.

hopefully they're saving him for the first team!

He is in the Squad for the Benfica game, although Everton are down to the bare bones at the moment.

Everton v Benfica match on Setanta tomorrow evening early. Hope the boy makes an apperance at some stage but unlikely.

**Rovers Maniac** · 21/10/2009, 10:09 PM

He is in the squad that have traveled to Lisbon for the match.

It's on Setanta Ireland, ESPN will be blacked out for Irish subs. Sportmania is Spanish and not available on Sky so irrelevant to most

Guaranteed to be on bench at least as Everton only have 17 players. They're playing Thursday, Sunday and Tuesday but Yobo, Neill and Heitinga out tomorrow so it'll be his best chance.
