That should be a really good team but under Givens we've been pretty crap this year :(

Interesting to see Kelly included. I thought Givens said he'd no longer be in the U21 squads, implying he was set to step up to the senior squad.

Dunno about Paisley at left full, isn't he a centre-half and Foley a natural left full?

Has O'Donovan been called up before?

He was called up after Givens saw him in Shels v City game in Tolka back in May/June.

Very strong squad. So many players left out that could push for a place too.
