Agreed and in saying that there are also a good few others who have been constantly picked in the squad that
shouldn't be within an ass's roar of International football for Ireland.

Just how is that not personal
I guess Emmet thinks that Paul McShane isn't good enough for the squad on footballing grounds alone, which is fair enough I supposeJust how is that not personal
Players I want to see in the squad for the Brazil game.
Coleman
McCarthy
Duffy
Wilson
Ward
Foley
A Reid
S Reid
I doubt Duffy would be picked without publically declaring his interest first.
Even more unlikely he'd be picked without breaking into the team.
Watch this space
Why would Duffy switch allegiance now
do you have any inside info
I'd like to see a full team, with Ward at left back instead of Kilbane. Given that O'Shea is done for the season, put Finnan back in there.
Given
Finnan-Dunne-St.Ledger-Ward
Lawrence-Whelan-Andrews-Duff
Keane-Doyle
Throw some subs on at half-time, like Coleman, S. Reid, etc.
With Finnans age and injury record shold we not be looking at someone else for the next campaign?
Its really not that complicated!!!
I can't see Finnan being back. It's not fair to set your stall out for the campaign with him at right back only to have to get someone else in from the 2nd game on. If Trap leaves him out then that will be the matter put to bed.
He's been a great servant, but not one for the future.
What date is the squad being named anybody know?
Who else is going to play right back for us? Coleman is too young, Foley just not good enough, but I guess Wilson might be an option.
Coleman is 21 so hes not too young.Foley is playing Premiership football so has at least as much of a claim as Ward has for selection. Im not claiming we have any outstanding candidate for right back at the moment because we are lacking in experience there but Finnan more than likely wont be around for all of the next campaign so I just think we need to look at other options there

Stephen Kelly and Paul McShane have been the replacement right-backs of choice during the last campaign. Whatever we think of both players I really don't see Trapattoni making wholesale changes other than broadening the squad with the likes of Coleman, Foley etc. He will test out some players during friendly matches but I don't expect to see a dramatically different squad when the qualifiers start in September.

Whos this Duffy fellow then?
Is it Shane Duffy?
The pessimist complains about the wind; the optimist thinks it will change; the realist adjusts the sails.
anyone know when the squad will be announced? Very anxious to see if McCarthy is named in the squad after the newspaper reports today.
What newspaper reports?
This probably :

I think Ward is worth a look at as we're weak at LB. I don't think the others merit attention, Steven Reid is obviously good enough and we know what he can do and no point in risking injury in a meaningless game. Meyler is getting more starts than Reid right now
