Sean Maguire
Jack Byrne
Lee O'Connor
Callum Robinson
Kieran O'Hara
That red should have been appealed anyway
Jason molumby should be called up and played. McCarthy should have learned from mot playing parrot and Connolly against Bulgaria. The reality is if we qualify we have three competitive games left to play. Why not give him and cullen game time against NZ. A half each?
Beautiful Stu. If POTM existed still, I'd nominate you.
Here they come! It’s the charge of the “Thanks” Brigade!
Press conference live on the FAI's Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/videos/live...?refid=52&_rdr
Confirmed this morning - Parrott, Byrne, and O'Connor will all start tomorrow against New Zealand
Mick then as good as confrimed that they wont be involved against Denmark, which is poor management. Just say maybe Mick and then see what you have on your hands
We were absolutely hopeless in the last two game, a change on plan against Denmark is almost certainly going to be needed
not true..
He was asked if a starring show from Parrott - who did some training ground work with assistant coach Keane yesterday - would present him with a dilemma.
"I hope he scores two goals and then I will deal with it," he said. "It's hypothetical isn't it, I don't really talk hypothetically. Let's hope he does it, gets the goals and plays really well. If he scores two goals, I might have a clamour in my own head to include him as well."
Suddenly this friendly is a lot more appealing. A good performance will do both O’C and Parrott no harm at club level as well. And great opportunity for Jack Byrne as well. Looking forward to tomorrow
I just can’t see Jack Byrne starting against Denmark, even if he sets up four goals and scores two.
I think McCarthy is never going to drop Hendrick or Hourihane in favour of Byrne.
I’d love him to start against Denmark though.
If he did say that, it would be totally idiotic even by Mick's standards. What is the point of having Byrne in the squad if there is literally no chance of him getting on the pitch irrespective of how he performs against New Zealand? His selection looks like a sop to the League of Ireland lobby and the media. Players should not be treated like PR pawns. Especially when they posses qualities that are in very rare supply within a very mediocre and utilitarian squad of players.
