What is Trap going to take from the Wales game? Will McCarthy be in the lineup? Does Trap want to inject some new blood into things? Or will it be pretty much the status quo like last time, barring injury?
If you had to predict the squad and starting lineup as of right now, what would it be?

Walters may have done enough in the Wales game to deputise for Robbie. I'd prefer Long myself. Clark had an assured debut, (albeit against poor opposition) has been playing regularly for Villa and should get the nod. Gibson's starting berth in the Wales game is notable given it was the game prior to a vital qualifier and Green was also available. Would Trap dare revert to the Derby ace? (snigger)
I'd downgrade the McCarthy question to whether or not he'll be in the squad tbh. Trap said he'll name him and I hope he stays true to that. He's fit, (visually verified at the time of writing) he's eligible and professedly wants to play for Ireland. Get him in. Roberto who?

With McCarthy in the squad, and Colin Doyle and Joe Murphy as the two backup keepers.

Can't tell if you're giving us a bit of Twin Peaks-esque backwardness here or just being awkward. ;)Quote:

Best and Clark bolted into the team, but most of the old favourites on the bench.
It's definitely being awkward, POS thinks Twin Peaks is a stripper's name!Quote:

If we could sort out central midfield that wouldn't be a bad team. I think Gibson is better in a 5 in MF so Whelan needs to be at the top of his game when Macedonia counter.
McCarthy better turn up to this squad if selected. If he doesn't feature then we have to forget him.
Unless he's injured, he's 100% in the squad. Even if he didn't start, he'd be the kind of experienced player that Trap likes in the dressing room.Quote:

I wonder if McShane will be in.
