Citys Shane Long has been called up by Ireland. See here
Only seen him couple of times with u-21s last season but he definitely impressed. In both semi & final IMO he overshaddowed Behan. City could do a lot worse than look to offer him fulltime contract before foreign club snap him up nopw he in Ireland squad shop window.
nice to see a load of home based players in the squad(2) :rolleyes:
Three actually, 2 UCD players too. Still a terribly small number at that age. :(Quote:

According to SoccerCentral.ie Shane replaced Reading's Jonathan Hayes for the final 20 minutes or so during Irelands 0-2 win over Italy in the second of two games.
