Second goal. Looked offside on sky sports news just now, but given
Needs to keep this up to the end of the season to show he's turned a corner, but great to see him doing well all the same
Watched the full game today and overall he was very good. He missed a good chance about a minute before the 1st goal but you could see him grow in confidence as it went on. Some of his touches in 2nd half we excellent. He had a hand in the QPR OG too so involved in all 3 goals, can't ask more from him than that.
I will say though that I don't think he looks as quick as he used to me, I could be wrong but there was just once or twice he looked a bit short on pace.
A glimmer of hope for him!
He looks sharp again
great first touch for his first chance of the game which he put wide, gave a crucial pass for second goal, not sure how his second goal isn’t offside, that right back must have stepped up really quickly (but still too late…) - great touch and finish all the same

Plenty of football between now and March to get a call up for himself
He keeps up that form and he'll be hard to leave out. BUT.... We now have options. Ferguson, Obefami, Robinson, Ogbene, Parrott, Connolly, Idah, Hogan, Keane. It's going to be difficult to get into the Ireland squad. That's 9 strikers in with a shout.
Hogan and Keane are surplus in all honesty. It would probably be possible to squeeze all the others in if needed. Some are centre forwards, some are second forwards, Ogbene covers right wing back, Idah will probably be injured etc.
