"I can't praise Paul highly enough," said Coleman talking to the Lancashire Telegraph.
"He's a model professional - a shining light to any young lad on how to conduct yourself as a footballer.
"He's got fitter by the year and quicker, which is amazing for his age. His work-rate is phenomenal and he takes everything on board.
"I'm sure he's got a lot of games left in him. This shouldn't be the end of him. I certainly expect him to make 500 games for Accrington.

"But it's a great achievement and it will be nice if the supporters can recognise that tomorrow."
"It makes me laugh that everyone says that he's reached his level. But every time we've stepped up, he's done even better and that's including this year.
"Lots of clubs would have him tomorrow.
"Probably the best bit of praise you can give Paul is that every player he's played with at Accrington, nobody has ever had a bad word to say about him.
"I think that shows the type of man he is and the type of footballer he is."
"Plus he's always prepared to put himself in the firing line. He never stops and that sort of player is a manager's dream."
