The Irish Times - Friday, November 9, 2012

Coleman keen to see Gibson back in an Ireland shirt

PAUL BUTTNER

Once back fully fit and focused, Séamus Coleman believes Everton team-mate Darron Gibson can become a crucial player in the Republic of Ireland’s midfield in the years ahead.

Upset at getting no game time at Euro 2012, Gibson went into self-imposed international exile and didn’t feature in the opening World Cup qualifiers against Kazakhstan, Germany and the Faroe Islands.

Though Gibson is currently out injured, Ireland manager Giovanni Trapattoni said at the recent squad announcement for next week’s friendly with Greece at the Aviva Stadium, he had spoken to the player and that he was ready to return once fit.

Having seen Gibson up close at Everton, Coleman, set to win his ninth cap against the Greeks, sees that as very good news as he’s full of praise for the Derry native’s ability.

“He will be a massive player for Ireland,” said Coleman. “I was in a couple of Ireland squads with him when he was at Man United, but I didn’t get to really see how good he is until he came to Everton. His range of passing is superb.”

Coleman, who said he hasn’t discussed the Ireland situation with Gibson, added: “We see each other every day at training, but it’s his thing and it’s not up to me to tell him to come back. It’s his own decision.

“I actually didn’t know the manager said that (that Gibson would return) last week, so I didn’t ask Gibbo about it, truthfully. It’s something that’s between them.”

Coleman didn’t make the squad for Euro 2012 so can empathise with Gibson. “As a footballer you want to play. Unfortunately for me, someone had to miss out and that was me,” said the 24-year-old fullback.

“I’m not bitter about not getting picked for the Euros, absolutely not. I was in and out of the team last year. It was frustrating, but I took it on the chin and knew I would get back.” Missing the Euros has given Coleman “a longing” to make the World Cup finals in Brazil in 2014. And despite the humiliating 6-1 defeat to Germany, Coleman believes Ireland are good enough to qualify.

“They will be massive,” said Coleman of the double-header games with chief rivals for runners-up Sweden and Austria in March. “(Those) games are really massive for us and will tell us a lot.”

For me, he makes too many errors to be right full for Ireland. Hopefully he can cut those mistakes out
 
Do o'shea, kelly, and mcshane make less mistakes? you have to remember, coleman is currently the only irish player who is a regular at a top6/7 club (and who wants to play for us)...currently shane long's west brom and joey o'brien's west ham are the nearest.
 
Coleman is preforming well and to a much higher standard than his Irish contemperies, why drop him?


Kelly makes far less mistakes.
Coleman better going forward but too prone to giving as goal away
Maybe try him at right wing

Ps..I never said I'd drop Coleman. Just saying he as an awful lot to do


True. It's hard to make mistakes when you can't even get in the matchday squad.

But its just you come across that way tho The Gerk when Coleman actually had a good 90 minutes, involved in the first Everton goal but your ascessment of him was "Was poor & at fault for second goal" & another poster post something similiar. He was involved conceding the final goal but if thats all ye saw & can say about his full performance as a whole,it wasn't a just statement.

Probably should keep this thread about Coleman and not McGeady and definitely not about how McGeady performed in Poland.

He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

McGeady is vastly overrated by some on here. The initial promise he showed when he first moved to Russia hasnt materialised unfortunately for us.

The only 2 games that I would say I was hugely impressed by him were Slovakia away and 45 mins against Bosnia in May.

On topic, I had my doubts over Coleman but has proven me wrong at club and international level the last 2 months. He deserves to keep the RB spot. I hope we never have to put up with O Shea in that position ever again.

I do feel people are almost happy to see him make these mistakes so they can pat themselves on the back and say I told you so. He comes in for a lot more stick on here than other players who get in the team.

It's similar to the stick McGeady gets off the old McGeady haters. They refuse to awknowledge his improved game. They are very quiet when he is our best player on the pitch but as soon as he has a bad game they come out in force
When is the last time mcgeady was the best player on the pitch for Ireland ?


I'd say overall he was our best player in the euro qualifying campaign. From an attacking perspective for sure

How is it relevant?

It seems that some players should be immune to criticism.


No one immune to criticism, maybe after getting motm, it might be better to point out the positives.

Agreed fully.
 
I myself had doubts about Coleman being played at right back for Ireland , mainly because he wasn't playing there for Everton! Now i will say i'm very much warming to the idea of Seamus nailing down that right back spot for Ireland for many years to come.
