Everton captain Seamus Coleman admits the players did not think European qualification was even possible a few months ago but now it is their sole target. While thoughts of Champions League football may be fanciful, the Toffees, with no cup involvement, are firmly in the race for the Europa League and that is something Coleman believes the club needs. A few months ago, we probably didn’t think that was possible,” he told evertontv. I think this club needs European football and we all want that. “Where this football club wants to get in the next three, four, five years, it has to be wanting European football every year and if we can get it this year, that’s a bonus.”
