Seamus Coleman provided Sean Dyche with an honest assessment of the situation he was walking into when he took the Blues job, the new manager said.
Just like he did when Frank Lampard arrived almost 12 months earlier the club captain shared his views on the predicament at Finch Farm and where things may have been going wrong. His insight was valuable to Dyche, as it was to Lampard, who would later go on to hail his role as a captain and a person during Everton's survival fight last season.
Coleman produced a moment of magic to help Everton secure a crucial win over Leeds United but also excelled once again in his defensive duties. After the game, Dyche praised his bravery as a leader and the "edge" he has maintained through his playing career.
