5 defenders who are major offensive threats

#4 Seamus Coleman

Coleman has the knack of scoring important goals

The captain of the Republic of Ireland, Seamus Coleman is one of the most explosive right-backs in the world. Everton have probably the most attacking full-back duo with the pair of Leighton Baines and Coleman wreaking havoc on almost every team in the Premier League.

Although Baines might be the more experienced out of the two – Coleman is three years younger than his teammate – and his pace, overlapping runs and tricky balls into the box make him one of the deadliest fullbacks in the league.

This season alone, the 28-year-old has been involved in 5 goals in 19 appearances, having scored four important goals for the Toffees. Coleman offers support to his midfield by going out wide and his tracking back abilities ensure that he is rarely caught out of position even while attacking.
