I’m striving for more, says Everton FC defender Seamus Coleman

SEAMUS COLEMAN'S feet are fixed firmly on the ground - despite a stratospheric rise in fortunes from Irish League regular with Sligo Rovers to the brink of becoming Ireland's newest full international tomorrow.[LNB]The 22-year-old has a reputation for being one of Everton's most focused footballers, willing to learn at every opportunity, and he's also willing to accept responsibility.[LNB]When it was suggested that an uncharacteristically miscued header by Tim Cahill early in Sunday's home defeat by Arsenal might have proved a turning point in the match, he countered: 'Tim usually puts those away, but maybe the cross was a bit high for him.'[LNB]The cross, of course, was clipped over by Coleman at the end of one of those swashbuckling runs that Everton fans adore. [LNB] And it was right on the button.[LNB]But the comment was typical. Coleman always wants to do that little bit better, and his form this season has been improving game by game, despite getting used to an unaccustomed right midfield role.[LNB]'I am learning the roles so it is always good to have a couple of positions,' he explained.
