Finn Azaz M Middlesborough b.2000

A goal and two assists for what it’s worth!

11th league goal of the season for him today. Impressive return given he's not a striker.

That goal means this season has seen the most goals from Irish players in the Championship for 15 years.

Alex Gilbert quickly follows it up with another Irish goal in the same game. A shame he's four days overage for the Under 21s.

I didn't realize Gilbert was after coming into minutes recently. This looks like his first start and he assisted Azaz' goal too so goal and assist for him as well.

I think that's his first goal in senior football

11 goals and 10 assists in the Championship this season, despite switching club half way through. Very impressive.

A real pity that O'Shea only saw fit to give him three minutes across the two games in March. With O'Shea back in again for June it could be more of the same and more development opportunities ****ed away thanks to the failure of Canham and the FAI to fulfil their briefs.

The two games were discussed briefly on second captains on Friday, they made the point that it'll have been a month since anyone in the championship played, and with O'Shea still being an interim manager, could we see a load of pull outs from the squad?

[Eirambler]

I expect we will. Especially if the suggestions that the players were unimpressed with O'Shea in March are true. It's a long season for the players, questionable whether it's worth continuing to train for over a month just for a couple of friendlies. I'd expect many to have/find niggly injuries that require them to rest up until preseason.

Probably " advised " by their clubs to look after themselves.

And struggling a bit after moving to Boro too. That's nicely in the past now though.
