Get down the bookies then. I reckon you'll get the long odds that such a bold prediction deserves.Originally Posted by Superhoops
I do hope you're right, but only because the lads' abilities render it impossible to omit them from the regular competitive senior starting XI, and not because of the overall paucity of talent. Who knows though? Let's have this conversation again in, say, ten years' time...

Anyone know whats happening with Anthony Gerrard?Is he still with everton/justifying the hype that surrounded huim/still consider himself irish?
Oh, and I reckon Kevin Doyle and John O'Shea will be the most improved....hopefully JOS will get get his focus back and become our best defender .
released recently by everton and signed for walsall. proved also he cannot play for ROI...no background to qualify
haha, cheers for that.
John O'Shea here too.
Man Utd will be struck by a spate of injuries in midfield, and with no money to sign anyone O'Shea will seize his chance and become a midfield dynamo extroadinaire. Johan Vogel will be sent flying.

Wild guess: Ben Burgess!
I expect Doyle, Foley & Damien Delaney to make names for themsleves.
He was on standby for the Portugal (I think it was that game anyway) after getting a run in the man city first team and scoring against Norwich.
My prediction?
Glenn Whelan - not so much an improvement as getting more involved with the senior setup.
Don't be surprised if Connolly takes his end of season form into the new season, esp with a World Cup coming up.
Good call on Burgess and Delaney Stuttgart, I've been watching Delaney's progress ever since Taylor made him his first signing for Hull.
Ahh, beat me to it. Really hope he pushes on with Wednesday in the Championship because we (Ireland) really need someone new in centre-midfield.
I heard that Willo was released by City.
not a chance mate
I doubt that but I wouldn't be too bothered. Pearce seems to have a few reserve players ahead of him in the pecking order. He'd definitely have a choice of a few clubs.
Anybody know whats happened to Patrick something or another who was playing in Germany ? ( a bit vague sorry)
Patrick Kholman plays for Borusia Dortmund.
How did he do this year ?

We really need a midfielder of quality to come through the ranks soon after all the false dawns i.e Colin Healy, Liam Miller, Stephen Mcphail... , maybe if we qualify for WC2006 we could unearth another Andy Townsend (Irish grandparents etc), if not things are not looking good, Keane 33, Kavanagh 31, Holland 31, and Kilbane 28 (good but not the kind of class midfielder required to boss the game at this level).. Worrying times!
[QUOTE=jjppc]He's on the fringes of the squad like Willo Flood at Man City.Apart from that ive no idea.

Liam Lawrence maybe? Might get in for the Italy game.
Thats not too promising then. He'd be 22 now. Would need to really push on next season.
