Bit of good news.
I don't read too much into contracts anymore though. A longer contract used to mean a longer career. Now it just means more cash and a bigger sell on fee.

Good news this. Not totally convinced by Vic, but that's a different subject all together. If Coleman can polish his game a bit, he can be a real terror down the flank.

Had a good debut for Ireland by all accounts. Some storming runs down the right. Came off after 68mins.

Just so long as he doesn't get injured.

Knocked his ankle whilst with the Ireland squad. Gotta love our lads being called up they always seem to pick up a knock

An X-ray on Seamus Coleman's injured ankle has confirmed that there is no fracture.

The Irishman was substituted just before half time in the pre-season friendly against Villarreal at Goodison Park on Friday evening.

He was the subject of a heavy challenge by Carlos Marchena and had to be helped from the field.

Coleman underwent an X-ray which showed there was no fracture and the injury will be further assessed on Monday.

Steve Round told evertontv: “We think it is ankle ligament damage, but we are not sure until there is a scan. There is no fracture.

“It was a bit naughty the challenge and their manager and the player have been in to apologise.”

Nice to hear. Not that it makes the injury any better, but a nice gesture nonetheless.

Any news on our Speedy Coleman?

Yeah Landon_Toffee forwarded a text to me saying that Coleman faces around 6 months out after scans reveal he has suffered ankle ligament damage.

torn the lateral ligament in his right ankle. No time set on his recovery, he's seeing a specialist in London this week. Fucking hell, we won't see him again this year. The only player who could cause any problems for opponents down the right. And Arteta is still injured. We are so fucked it's unbelievable.

at least he was suspended for the 1st 2 games after the poor red card decision last game..

Liverpool are plotting a shock bid for Everton star Seamus Coleman, after Toffees manager David Moyes refused to rule out player sales due to their financial position.

The Blues are currently unable to bring in new signings at Goodison Park as the Merseysiders have reached their overdraft limit and even if the club did sell some of their better players to raise funds then that cash would only go to paying off bank debts.

Moyes and the Everton board have grown increasingly anxious with financial situation and could give themselves room to breathe by offloading several stars before the transfer window shuts on Wednesday with bitter rivals Liverpool ready to take advantage of the situation.

While key duo Mikel Arteta and Phil Jagielka have been strongly linked with Arsenal, Kenny Dalglishs interest in Coleman comes as somewhat of a surprise.

But according to sources close to the Reds boss, the Scotsman rates the Republic of Ireland international very highly and is considering a £8m bid for the right-sided player, who can operate as a full-back or in more advanced attacking position.

Everton will be reluctant to sell the versatile 22-year-old, especially to their Merseyside neighbours, but the Blues may be forced to cash-in on the youngster if they cannot offload another one of his stars this week.

"Everybody's got a price - Fabregas, Ronaldo, you name it. If anyone bids big enough I'm sure we'd take it. I'm not daft, Moyes told Sky Sports.

Dalglishs monetary situation starkly contrasts, he is being encouraged to carry on spending by owners Fenway Sports Group - despite spending over £50m on transfers this summer.

Having signed Stewart Downing to operate on the left-side, Dalglish wants a similar potency on the opposite flank to provide wide-service to strikers Luiz Suarez and Andy Carroll.

Coleman certainly fits the Anfield clubs policy of buying young talent with a potentially higher sell-on value, but a move between the Merseyside rivals will always be a controversial one.

The former Sligo Rovers may feel a move across the city would benefit his long term career plans by aiding his ambitions to one day play in the UEFA Champions League.
