First Choice XI's

With most of the squads taking shape & a few friendlies under each sides belt what are the first choice XI's going to be like for each side?

its hard to say really. :D

Dundalk would be:

1.Peter Cherrie
2.Shaun Kelly
3.Wayne Hatswell
4.Liam Burns
5.Garry Breen
6.Alan Cawley
7.Tom Miller
8.JJ Melligan
9.Neale Fenn
10.Ross Gaynor
11.Shaun Maher

Hoping to add another striker and midfielder i would reckon

I reckon Pats will be


-----------Connor---------
Lynch Guthrie Kenna Bermingham
Guy---Byrne--- Mulcahey--Coughlan
----Faherty-------Williams

Pretty certain in all areas bar midfield where Mahon may go for the experienced pair I have there or a combination of either of those with Sinnott or McAllister

that looks a good team, ill go for that as well

only doubt would be kenna, but i havent seen enough of him yet

Ours possibly something like

Brush

Keane/Ventre Almeida/Foran Peers Davoren

McCabe O'Grady Ryan/Doninger Doyle

Amond Blinkhorn

I'd guess:

Brush

Whelan/Keane, Peers, Almeida, Davoren,

McCabe, 2 of Doninger/O'Grady/Ventre/Ryan, Doyle,

Amond, Blinkhorn.

For Harps, I'd guess:

Ciaran Gallagher
James Doherty - Jonathan Minnock - Packie Mailey - Matthew Crossan
Michael Funston - Shaun McGowan - Johnny Lafferty - Marc Brolly
Davitt Walsh/Stephen McLaughlin - Kevin McHugh

Hmm, when all are fit I'd hazard a guess at

Aaron Shanahan

Derek Tyrell
Philip Byrne
Chris Deans
Gary Cronin

JP McDonagh
Ryan McEvoy
John Lester
Cathal Brady/Fiachra McArdle

Derek Glynn
Peter Hynes

David Freeman could be slotted in in midfield or up front somewhere as well.

Probably similar to last year -

-------------Barron----------------
Harding-----Ev---Boyle---Shortall
Mulhall---Corry---Creevy--Ward
------McMillan------Kilduff-------

Bolger, Nangle and McMahon would be the main ones pushing for a starting spot, I think.

I would guess along the same lines although I would definitely prefer McLaughlin to Walsh and it looks like Mark Moran is going to be getting a run at left mid tonight so maybe he is going to replace Brolly in the 1st XI.

I would have thought McAllister would have to get the nod....Class footballer, but of course I have not seen Pats in preseason.

I only managed to get to one pre season friendly and McAlister was playing right wing, Didnt have a good game, would have liked to seen him in the midde of the park

PLayed in centre v Bray. played well I thought. As I said elsewhere I think Mahon will start with the experienced pair with a view to establishing a solid base. Personally hope Sinnott gets a decent amount of playing time

Hard to say with us. I'd guess

Doherty

McCallion
Scoltock
McChrystal
Friars

Sweeney
Deery
Molloy
McLean

Farren
Parkhouse

That Longford team doesn't look too bad at all!

I'd guess Shels first choice XI will be

----------- I ---------
--- II - III - IV - V ---
- VI - VII - VIII - IX -
------ X - XI ----
