He probably has his privacy setting set to "friends of friends". Essentially, to be privy to such information, you need to be in the inner circle. :p
I don't think McClean will pull out either, for what it's worth. He seems pleased with the call-up and will probably settle for international recognition with NI now rather than holding out for us down the line. There's no guarantee that holding out would come to anything for him. He'd be well down the pecking order for us. I can't see when he'd get remotely near a squad. He'd possibly be as far down as 10th or 11th in line, if even, for the position in which he plays.
