Everton fans unfurl quality banner for the injured Seamus Coleman

Carl Kinsella

It’s fair to say that Everton fans were heartbroken as Seamus Coleman’s leg was broken by Neil Taylor a few weeks back in a World Cup qualifier between Ireland and Wales.

The Toffees are missing their first-choice right-back as he recovers from the double-leg fracture, and they showed their class on Sunday when they unfurled a tribute to him in the stands of Goodison Park.

A blue banner with the message “Stay strong, Seamus” emblazoned across it will surely give the man a lot of heart as he begins his long road back to full fitness.

Everton went on to beat Leicester in a thrilling 4-2 that saw teenager Tom Davies open the scoring after just 30 seconds.
