🗣️ *Dominic Calvert-Lewin speaking about Seamus Coleman:*

The biggest cultural architect at Everton is Seamus Coleman. And you know what? What a man he is. He deserves all the credit he's received from people and all the plaudits and positivity associated with him because he really is that guy. Some players or people might put on a bit of extra to look a certain way, but he truly lives and breathes it.

I was talking about feeling a relegation battle before, but he feels it tenfold compared to me. I don’t know, it’s the way he’s emotional in the sense that he loves Everton Football Club. I think that’s quite rare these days because football is also a business, and sometimes football doesn’t love you back. I wouldn’t say gone are the days where you have those childhood stories of players staying at the same club, but it’s a little different now.

Seamus has been at Everton, and I think he still appreciates the faith that Everton put in him when he was a young lad. Nobody can argue what he’s done. People often forget that, probably in Everton’s history, the last three years—the points deductions, relegation battles—have been the toughest. The uncertainty, maybe higher up, and things like that, which do filter into a dressing room and affect your performance when the environment’s unstable.

You do have to stay focused and stay as a unit. Seamus has been the main driver of that through sheer passion and love for the club. As you can tell, I respect him a lot. What do his daily behaviors look like that are so impressive? He just does everything right. He doesn’t cut corners. Simple things, you know—he’s on time, and he’s very aware of how people perceive him in the environment. He knows that people will take cues from how he acts. So, he never loses sight of that. If we’re going through a sticky patch, he’ll make sure he’s the first on the training pitch, first in the gym, or first to training because he’s setting the example. For me, he’s been a great leader to learn from because that’s all I’ve ever known. I know Seamus like I know Everton. So, yeah, he’s the main cultural architect. As he ages and plays less, which is how football works, did anything change from the kid who was playing every single week, every single game, or did he remain central to the conversations?

Some players shrink back when they’re not playing, but I think he’s naturally evolved in that way. You wouldn’t believe some of the moments of need when he’s stepped up and spoken in the dressing room. I can’t think of an exact moment, but he’s able to recognize when the team needs a kick up the arse. If you can think of a game where we were backs against the wall, chances are Seamus was there, rallying the troops. What would he say? I’ve heard him give a lot of speeches over the years.

He won’t mind me saying this, but his go-to is always: “There are people in those stands who are paying a lot of money to come and watch us. They’re working all week, and this is their outlet to come and watch us win and, at the bare minimum, see us give our all.” It’s something along those lines. Without saying too much, he speaks about the people, he speaks about the football club. He’s almost able to disassociate himself as Seamus the footballer and place himself as Seamus, Everton Football Club. You feel it, you know? It’s captivating.

You go out ready to run through brick walls. Managers have come and gone in that period of time, but he’s been the captain. He’s had to deal with a lot in terms of internal politics, points deductions, this person, that person, and still, he’s out there giving 110% on the day.

@eurofootcom Direct counter yes, but Thuram was allowed acres to run into as they just kept backing off. Pathetic defending.
