Irishmen using their heads!

♣I love it when the shortest man on the pitch scores with a header.  A sweet powerful header that essentially leads the defense to thinking twice when they are going to choose who they mark.  The Tall guy in the middle who is already covered, or the short guy who just trailed in on the far post?

♣Well, in this case, the Fulham defenders decided to cover the other strikers and Everton players and leave Coleman all by his lonesome.  You can see in the video how theres a good 10-12 feet between Coleman and the nearest Fulham defender when the cross is first played across the box by Osman.

♣Hopefully we will be seeing some of this from Coleman in the upcoming games!!  Cheers Coleman, you may be up for Irishman of the Week?

♣Coleman wasn’t the only one using his head today; Walters was at it too for Stoke in their 4-0 victory over Newcastle.  Walters scored the first goal for Stoke after nodding a nice cross over the goalie and into the net.  Not only did he score, but he was threatening and got an assist too on the last goal of the game, which will of course put him in the running for Irishman of the Week.  Full game highlights below:
