Fantasy Ireland XI (84-04)

[eirebhoy]

There are loads of threads on Ireland's best ever 11. Stick to the thread, you are only allowed add 4 players to our current set of players.

[colster]

GK: Shay Given Although Packie is a legend, I think Shay is a better keeper.
RB: Stephen Carr When fit, his only realistic challenger is current challenger Steve Finnan.
LB: Dennis Irwin The only choice.
CB: Paul McGrath Head and shoulders above the rest.
CB: Kenny Cunningham Would look even better alongside McGrath.
RM: Ray Houghton Would pose as much of a goalscoring threat down the right as Duff.
LM: Damien Duff Another automatic choice.
CM: Roy Keane A no brainer (and an obvious choice too!).
CM: Liam Brady To provide the killer pass.
CF: Robbie Keane All time record scorer.
CF: Clinton Morrison Improving all the time.

Misread the thread originally. Having re-read it though that looks like pretty good side. I'd still love to see Whelan and Aldridge included.

Its very easy to pick a best 11 from the last 20 years... Stick to the rules.
