Coleman at his peak was probably the best RB in the Premiership and you don’t get to that level without great ability If you look at Seamus as a player, if you took away that mentality, you are really just left with a player with pace. His technique, his crossing, his defending etc aren't really that great and never have been.

The lad was as good if not better than most of team, some very blinkered people on TT. You can see the distance between them when the ball comes in and he shouldnt be allowed it. Personally I think people are blinkered by the quality of the finish and ignore the fact he should have beaten Gundogan to the ball in the first place.

If he was next to Gundogan he would not have stopped the ball getting to him at the height it did when you mark a player in box you get between the player and the goal, you don’t stand in front of the player leaving him with a free run to goal, everything about that goal was Gundogan first touch to try and read or defend that ability is near on impossible. And also he got to Gundogan at the same time as the ball and he was done by a touch of pure quality and a quickness of finish.

He could have, he should have been tight, he could have either got a foot to it first or been physical enough to stop Gundogan having a better touch. It was nothing like near impossible, its bread and butter. It was poor defending, irrespective of how fantastic the finish was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
