Nah. He’s one those types of players that needs an extended run of games to hit a reasonable level of form. But hasn’t been able to retain his place during his spin up to form level. So has been stuck in a vicious circle in recent years. If he gets a few starts he’ll be grand. Until his next layoff and then it resets again.
I tend not to criticize Irish player's application, but he has seemed off to me. Maybe it's just that lack of games, as you say. He'll likely be picked for the England game, so let's hope he gets a few more.
Nightmare for Doherty today, might be the last time he plays for Wolves.

Got called out specifically as well. That's two howlers in his last two games. I'd say he'll be in the championship after the new year
Matt Doherty needs to move to centre-back ~ ~ Most Irish people of any decent size can play centre-back !
Wasn't one of his (rare) good performances for Ireland at centre back during the Kenny era?! The position just seems to come naturally to us...

It's destiny ~ I am actually surprised that he has not been tried at centre-back more often.
Is there anything to be said for trying him in centre-mid...?
Mind you ~ It would probably have to be a championship level or even a level below.
At least he wouldn't have to force the wingers down the line from there !Is there anything to be said for trying him in centre-mid...?
