My team for Sunday:
Randolph
Keogh Duffy Long
Coleman Stevens
Williams
Brady Arter McClean
Robinson
O’Brien
In reality it doesn't matter if we had players similar to Pele, Maradona & Cruyff in their heyday starting for Ireland as Martin O'Neill's tactical rubbish would make them look like players from my local senior league. In any case my team would be :
........... Randolph
.......Keogh Duffy Long
Coleman... .... ............Stevens
.........Arter........Meyler
O'Dowda.......................Brady
........... Robinson

It's interesting to see young Manchester United prospect Lee O'Connor get called up to the squad, even if it's because of injuries and suspensions.
United fans who follow the club's youth sides closely rave about him.

Full back, although he can play across the back 4 and perhaps in midfield.
You'll get a flavour from this thread over on the redcafe forum - http://www.redcafe.net/threads/lee-oconnor.416599/
Jayus lads terrible mews from Dnemark

from RTE's preview of the game: https://www.rte.ie/sport/soccer/2018...ark-v-ireland/
so, a rookie keeper in goals, and possibly two starting midfielders missingKasper Schmeichel is suspended after picking up a yellow card against Wales while Huddersfield goalkeeper Jonas Lossl is injured, so Frankfurt’s second choice shot-stopper Frederik Ronnow looks certain to start.
Borussia Dortmund midfielder Thomas Delaney is also suspended, while the Danes continue to be without captain Simon Kjaer, with Andreas Christensen and Mathias Jorgensen set to start in defence.
However the main focus will be on whether or not Christian Eriksen starts.
The Tottenham striker has only recently recovered from a stomach muscle injury and with nothing at stake, may not be risked. Erikson’s inclusion or absence from the team-sheet should be an indication of how seriously the Danes are going to take this game.
Not that much of a rookie; 6 caps for Denmark and 100 games for Brondby before leaving in the summer.
Though on our form, their goalkeeper is the least of our worries.
Terrible news about the fan who died overnight obviously. Ireland away games are great craic and even though the pints do be flowing, you never imagine it'll end like that...
