Everton boss Moyes delighted with Coleman return

Everton boss David Moyes is delighted with the return to action of Seamus Coleman.

The Republic of Ireland international, 24, has started the last two matches after a three-week absence through injury over the festive period.

"Obviously Seamus offers one or two different things when he plays right-back. We're glad to get him back," said Moyes.

"He's a very good player and he is improving. He is a young boy as far as football goes because he is pretty new into the professional scene.

"He learnt a little bit of his trade as a wide attacking player, albeit he has always been a full-back.

"He provided one or two opportunities for us [against Swansea] and maybe we should have attacked them a bit more."
