    Given; Kelly, Dunne, O'Shea, Kilbane; Duff, Carsley, Miller, McGeady; Keane, Doyle.

    About as expected. Maybe Hunt can feel upset at being overlooked.

    Is that not a contradiction in terms
    Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.

    Predictable lineup with S.Reid out. I'm so hoping McGeady has the game of his life. Not expecting though.

    I'm just hoping he doesn't get injured! Pitch was used for rugby only a few days ago!

    This is the most meaningless international game I can remember. Just a cash cow for the FAI!

    he'll be livid, Hunt has played exceptionally since the start of the season and now Duff plays a couple of games after a long term injury and gets to play against Brazil ?

    Probably a strong a line up as can be expected with the squad that's left.

    hunt has been mainly used as an impact player this far in his career, that's probably what he'll be whenever Duff is fit. Duff was supposed to have played well at the weekend, had a goal disallowed,

    Along with the Wales game, that's 10 Premiership starters, plus McGeady, 2 games in a row. Must be a while since that happened?

    Don Giavanni is only winding him up nicely so he'll come on after 60 mins and kick seven shades of yellow out of the Brazilians. Should be fun to watch.

    He's an impact player remember lads

    With a centre midfield like that, id be very concerned about our chances of qualification.

    Looking at that back four - it's truly shocking. Dunne can't be asked the carry 3 players. Kelly is a headless chicken at right full with no positional sense (I hope to God Finnan is brought back with the new manager), O'Shea is a fairy and Kilbane, despite all the hard work he puts in, is a donkey with no positional sense either. If thats the best available to us - which seems so at the moment - I'm very worried about the future

    S. Reid missed all last season with various injuries and still looks like he's struggling badly. Can anyone see him holding down a place in this qualifying campaign?

    He did well the season before last for Blackburn, but I'm concerned he could be a goner at this stage.

    Kelly is a very good right back in my view and has played very well for Birmingham this year. However in Slovakia he was playing left back which was out of position for him(I don't see him retiring because of it) and Kilbane gave him no protection at all and most people who watched it on the TV were of the view that Kelly had a shocker but those at the game would have seen it was Kilbane at fault for most of it.

    I would be slightly worried going forward that Mc Geady would not give this protection so I might go for the Duff and Hunt as wingers.

    Kelly is supposed to be one of Birmingham's best players this season.
