Presuming that Kerr will name a 24 man squad, who do you reckon will be in or out.

Given
Colgan
Murphy (I think Paddy Kenny is injured at the moment)
Carr
Finnan
Cunningham
Breen
O'Shea
O'Brien
Harte
Steven Reid (Just about)
Delap
Miller
Holland
Healy
Kavanagh
McPhail
Kilbane
Duff
Andy Reid
Keane
Morrison
Connolly
Doherty

My ommissions:
Mark Kinsella - let's move towards the future
Lee Carsley - no explanation necessary
Sean Thornton - not yet - but he's injured anyway
Alan Quinn - have chosen McPhail just ahead of him
Barrett - was tempted to include ahead of either Morrison or Doherty but not sure if he's ready/good enough
Dunne - misses out

I wouldn't be surprised if Kerr named a big squad i.e. 30 players.
It will be useful to draw a line under the last campaign and start to build for the next one.

I'd pick

Given
Colgan
Murphy - If Kenny is indeed injured
Finnan
O'Shea
Carr
Cunningham
Thompson
O'Brien
Breen
Duff
Andy Reid
Steven Reid
Quinn
Miller
Healy
Delap
Kavanagh
O'Connor
Holland
Keane
Morrison
Connolly
Lee
Barrett/Doyle - Maybe, just to make up the numbers.

My omissions

McPhail - In no way, shape or form within pĂ­ssing distance of being good enough. Woefully over rated.

Carsley - I don't dislike him as much as some on here and was looking to include him, but we've alot of options in central mid field and I had too many people ahead of him.

Kilbane - Not good enough to be in ahead of Reid or Duff

Kinsella - Time to retire

Sean Thornton - Not ready yet. Also over rated but could be good, later.

Dunne - Not until he regains his City place

Doherty - Not international class as a forward anyway, possibley a centre half role if he maintains his Spurs place but not yet.

Harte - I'd rather call up my local sunday leagues sub left back.

If there's anyone else I've just plain forgotten them :)

Would almost totally agree with Slash/Ed selection.

McFail is crap


Though I would include Kilbane for pure effort (not skill) alone.
