Hasn't been capped by Ireland at underage yet, has he? He also had a non league loan all ready, all though think it was well down the divisions.

He played for the U18s in 2018 - https://www.fai.ie/ireland/news/irel...-against-wales - although they spell his name "Ethan" here

New contract for Shane Flynn at Leicester

**Trequartista20** · 18/03/2021, 6:14 PM

Young Arsenal centre-back, Mark McGuinness, after being a regular at Ipswich for much of the season, has been relegated to the U-23 side, a victim of Ipswich only being able to name 5 loanees in a matchday squad.

**Trequartista20** · 18/03/2021, 6:20 PM

Just how good are the United lads, McCann and Neville? Are they highly rated? I've seen not seen much of them.

Anyone know?

I suppose its only fair or else some clubs would have 11 Loanee’s.

McCann was highly rated 2-3 years ago, maybe he still is. I don’t really see it. Don’t think either will be a full international

**Razors left peg** · 18/03/2021, 6:34 PM

Is it surprising that McCann wasnt called up for the 21s ?

He’s a 2002 boy, so he’s pretty young for 21s. Also I’d have the likes of Smallbone, Noss, Kavanagh ahead of him (who are 2000-01) and Finn. Haven’t seen much of Watson but he made his debut for Derby a few days ago. Not sure where in midfield he plays. Kilkenny can also play in midfielder or out wide. I have a feeling there’s another attacking midfielder who I like more too but I’ve forgotten... Coffey maybe.

He’s probably in that tier of guy who has the ability to suddenly have a jump in level of performance but it hasn’t had it happen for him yet. Right now, I’d say he’d be a fringe member of the 21s campaign after this one.

Joe Hodge possibly?

**tetsujin1979** · 18/03/2021, 7:21 PM

Hodge is out injured: https://www.derryjournal.com/sport/f...-weeks-3163135

was probably thinking Jamie Bowden. I excluded hodge due to injury. Not really sure the eligibility of Hondermarck and En-Neyah but I’d also have them both ahead

**Trequartista20** · 19/03/2021, 2:53 PM

Is Bowden fit and available? Didn't he make the Spurs bench recently? I'm not sure what sort of midfielder he is. Does anyone have any information?

Bowden scored a penalty for Spurs' U23 side this afternoon

Was named on the bench a few weeks ago away to Wolfsberger

**Trequartista20** · 19/03/2021, 3:40 PM

Obviously fit for selection, then. Why was he left out?

**tetsujin1979** · 09/04/2021, 9:08 PM

Odubeko with a hat trick tonight against Man United's U23s

**Yard of Pace** · 12/04/2021, 8:39 AM

Goals here. The second and third.....very nice goals....it's exciting stuff

**samhaydenjr** · 13/04/2021, 12:23 AM

A couple of goals for Irish players today:

Ninth goal of the season for Ethon Varian - hopefully this is a sign that he might see some game-time at senior level before the end of the season, particularly with Stoke sitting in mid-table: https://www.premierleague.com/match/...0-21/tbc-v-tbc

Dara Costelloe seems to be going along well at U23 level, scoring the equalizer for Burnley against Norwich: https://www.premierleague.com/match/...0-21/tbc-v-tbc
