Please God he keeps Miller out of the team and McShane away from the centre of defense! I agree with Hobo's XI.

I have my team and the one I think Trap will put out...

Mc Geady - A. Reid - Whelan - Duff
Keane - Doyle

How many times must we say this McShane and Miller should never play for Ireland again , maybe I see a different game plan then other people .Originally Posted by Colbert Report
I'm defo seeing it your way. I think 99.9% of people who watch football would go for Reid and Foley.
I must be the .1% so, would have McShane at right back ahead of an untried Foley. McShane has played well for us in the past and is playing well for Hull at the moment. He just needs to learn to calm down a bit because that is what leads to him making mistakes.
Its really not that complicated!!!
McShane deserves better than what he's getting on this thread...
Given
McShane, Dunne, JoSh, Kilbane,
McGeady, Whelan, Miller, Duff,
Doyle, Keane.
I think Miller's place in the team is the only one up for grabs.
yeah agreed mcshane for right back. but i mean thats only cos we dont have anyone else half decent. i think his spurt of good form is entirely related to the cutting of his dulux dog fringe thus enabling him to actually see whats in front of him.
I
same as this, 1st team is my choice aswell but 2nd team will prob start. hope he keeps o'shea in central defence though with mcshane in at right back.which XI would you start?

I'd agree with the hobo's 1st team except for maybe Joey O'Brien or Kevin Foley @ right back but I'd say Traps team will be as above.
"We didn't underestimate them. They were just a lot better than we thought."
How I'd line up:
Given
McShane-Dunne-O'Shea-Kilbane
McGeady-Whelan-A Reid-Duff
Keane-Doyle

You'll NEVER beat the Irish.......you'll just draw with us instead!!!
Agree, but not Miller!
its not really that i have a problem with miller but with him and whelan in midfield there is absolutely no creativity in the central area. whatsoever !
andy with whelan with whelan holding. i dont see the grey area here. trap must really really not like andy for some reason.
My issue with Miller & Whelan is more the lack of physicality. They were gobbled alive by Columbia, admittedly a very big & athletic midfield. The two wide guys are physically unimposing as well so there could be a huge gap between defence and the attack with the ball just failing to stick.
Andy Reid is no great athlete either but he protects the ball way better than Miller and uses it way better. It's a far better bet in my opinion to play Reid & Whelan.
Also Andy Reid, probably by now, needs a good runabout more than Miller.
I'll tell yer I could cry everytime I see Miller coming on but if he was to start I think I will bring a noose with me on Wednesday night
Do not rule out Keith Andrews making a start.
In Trap we trust
i just did
Think Trap will play Mc Shane as a direct replacement for Finnan the other 3 positions will stay the same for some continuity
Not convinced about Miller but not overly convinced by A Reid either in games that matter but will probably go with Reid for the extra experience/better ability in midfield.
Duff for Hunt
3 points in the bag please God roll on Georgia in Feb
I have never been a fan of Hunt (slight understatement perhaps), but I have got to admit that he is looking good for Reading at the minute. I would actually consider him ahead of Miller for the S.Reid role. He can carry the ball forward, play simple passes and is capable of harrying and closing down opponents. He has a lot more presence than Miller and might actually be more effective coming forward from a central position than he has been on the wing.
Trap likes him, and there is no way that we can afford to leave out Duff or McGeady, it might just be the surprise selection (please God anyone other than Miller).
