True, but he looked very lively. One for the future for either country

I'd say one for the next squad for us if he was willing. He's a raw talent and got himself sent off in a ridiculous manner. But I'm sure he'll learn from that mistake, and we have nothing better in terms of a left footed attacker.

There's no suggestion that this player has any interest in playing for us, is there? He seems fairly established in the England underage setup. Usually the only time we would be likely to bring in a player in that position is when he is overage for the England age groups and not getting a senior call up.

Some of the usual suspects on twitter/X are trying to convince their followers that because his brother(boxer Paddy Lacey) fights with a tricolour on his shorts that he'll accept a call up. Personally, I think that a player who's represented England at every level from U15 to U20 and has already trained with the senior team has zero interest in playing for Ireland

Agreed, though an enquiry should still be made. But I imagine this has already happened behind the scenes.

The one we should really be trying to convince is JJ Gabriel.

he's also the only brother who doesn't support Liverpool. or at least that's the family's official line - definitely weird for a scouser to grow up supporting United

You'd assume with Moorhouse and Devaney, both also at Man U, having accepted call ups from us in the last year or two that Lacey was approached too and that what you said is the case, at the moment anyway.
