Is Robbie Brady injured?
Don't think so, he played (and scored, and was sent off) against Wolves for the reserves two weeks ago: http://www.manutd.com/en/Players-And...-United-3.aspxQuote:

I didn't know Madden went to Carlisle. Not exactly the headline move that was rumoured a few weeks ago.
Thanks for that. Will anybody here be lucky enough to be at the game?Quote:

There's a lot of things if I could I'd.....rearrange
King said he wanted to try out some different players. Brady is a surefire starter in qualifiers, so he doesn't need to see him this time out.Quote:

Good to hear Paul Doolin found him again. He's really earning his packet.
Definately it is a very good squad Doolin has picked. We have alot of player at this level but Brady is I guess the jewel.
Any side that can have duffy,o Brien, Mcginty and Doherty in defence and Hendrick and Wearen in midfield must have a good chance of qualifying. Maybe Tidim can score the goals with some help from McEleney!
full U19 squad here: http://fai.ie/index.php?option=com_c...r-19&Itemid=12
Quite a lot of first team experience thereQuote:
Republic of Ireland Under-19 Squad:
Sean McDermott - Arsenal
Aaron McCarey - Wolverhampton Wanderers
Declan Walker - Wrexham
Matt Doherty - Wolverhampton Wanderers
John Egan - Sunderland
Joe Shaughnessy - Aberdeen
Anthony O'Connor - Blackburn Rovers
Sean McGinty - Manchester United
Derrick Williams - Aston Villa
Jeff Hendrick - Derby County
Kane Ferdinand - Southend United
Shane Byrne - Leicester City
Eoin Wearen - West Ham United
John O'Sullivan - Blackburn Rovers
Anthony Forde - Wolverhampton Wanderers
Daryl Horgan - Sligo Rovers
Kevin Knight - Leicester City
Conor Murphy - Bray Wanderers
Ethan Mannion - West Bromwich Albion
Selcuk Tidim FC - FC St. Pauli
Robbie Brady - Manchester United
Connor Smith - Watford.
Very strong squad, particulaly in defence and midfield. As mentioned above great to see Tidim back, I have tried to follow his progress at St Pauli, but their websites and forums are 100 years behind most in terms of updates and information.
The official st pauli website has excellent weekly updates on all their youth teams withteam line ups, scorers and match reports. Goggle translation does a good job if your german is as non existant as mine. He seems to score regularly for the 19s
Niall Canavan - Scunthorpe (loaned to Shrewsbury)
has been called up.
Another centre half? That adds to Duffy, Gunning and Keirnan, right?
Mark Connolly tooQuote:

Connolly was highly thought of when he walked out on wolves. Turned 19 in December hopefully will get a look in at bolton before end of season. Captains the reserves where he plays holding midfield sometimes.
McEleaney has been called up to the under 19s. Surely he will move back to uk soon. Roberts from arsenal called up to under 17s for their qualifiers promising striker.
game is listed on the usual streaming sites if you want to watch it tomorrow, it should be available.
not sure about the commentary language, mind
That's unfair - there has been far less reason to swear since Given departed.Quote:

Probable lineup according to the Independent:
Ireland U-21 v Portugal (probable) -- McLoughlin; Towell, Canavan, Kiernan, Gunning; Connolly, Henderson, Barton; Clifford, Doran, O'Connor. Subs: Hourihane, Murray, Madden, Duffy, Quirke, Oyebanjo.
Yes. But he wants to look at the British based players in this game.Quote:

Who wood play up front?!!!Doran is obviously a winger and O Connor had played all his senior football at full back even though he may have gone to liverpool as a winger/strikerQuote:

Just tuned into a stream now. One of the Portuguese players managed the most ridiculous embellishment of an injury I've ever seen. It was like a killer whale majestically emerging from the ocean. And Bebe's playing!
0-0 at half time.
Very impressive first half performance from Ireland. Look the stronger team
We've had the lion's share of possession.
Henderson looks like the sort of creative player our teams lack. Clifford too. Both of them like to drop deep to pick up the ball too. Doran looks very impressive - bigger than I remember him being, but perhaps it's just the small opposition.
Yeah, they are playing well, keeping possession and passing the ball nicely, they are missing an out and out striker though.
