Seamus Coleman has responded to the praise that came his way from Frank Lampard, insisting he has not taken too much notice of the kinds words spoken by the Everton boss. After the Blues secured their Premier League status courtesy of a dramatic turnaround at home to Crystal Palace, Lampard singled out the Toffees’ captain in the dressing room after the match in front of the rest of the first-team. With one arm around the shoulder of Coleman,
Frank Lampard said: “This fella, let me just say in front of everyone, one of the best people I have ever met as a man and what you are as a player.”
Reflecting on this moment and how he felt to be spoken of in this manner,
Seamus Coleman said : “Listen, it was a tough season for us all, a lot of emotion went into it, all season, and I think a little bit of emotion carried through into that game. Regardless of who my manager is, it’s not changed for me.”
