My Take

What gets me about Séamus Coleman is the route he took. He started out as a Gaelic footballer with St Catherine's in Killybegs, a small corner of County Donegal, before association football ever entered the picture. To go from that to right-back for Everton and captain of the Republic of Ireland is the kind of arc you don't engineer; you grind into it. Born in 1988, he's reached the point where free agency looms in mid-2026, and I find myself respecting the longevity as much as anything. He never struck me as a player chasing headlines, just one who kept showing up and leading.
