Mc Shane
Andy O' Brien
St Ledger
Foley
O shea
Hunt
Kilbane
Carsley
Andy Reid (if fit)
Mc Geady
A Quinn
Duff
Ireland
Keane
Doyle
Long
Stokes
Elliot

Agree, wouldn't have Long in it just yet - stick him in the u21's. I'd say Lee/Morrisson will be in there instead.
Would have Paddy McCarthy in there ahead of O'Brien based on his impressive B showing and also on the fact that he is actually playing some football!
Too soon for Garvan/Clarke? Both should definitely at least be in the u21's at this stage...

Darren O Dea surely would merit a squad place if he keeps getting in the celtic team the way he is (and scoring the goals he is)
Actually guys I think ye right .its time for either Mc carthy or O 'Dea, so leave foley out and O brien
I feel its too soon for Garvin but only because od his lonf time out of the game recently.
I'd defo have Garvan in it instead of A Quinn who's not a regular anymore for Sheffield Utd. Probably Ireland as well though I can't say he deserves a midfield place ahead of any of the others tbh so maybe not.Originally Posted by Dr. Ogba
Also I'd have S Kelly instead of Foley and definitely have O'Dea ahead of that liability A O'Brien. Like to see O'Shea out too (Possibly S Kelly could be brought in for him instead) but unfortunately this won't happen so no point speculating.

Stephen Kelly will probably be injured.
In Trap we trust
Garvin is quality but we can rush him because of a media frenzy lads)
Kelly is out Young irish .....
I feel the usa tour will a major bonus in developing the youth and guys close to a team spot
examples:
Chris Mc cann
Foley
Tabb
Steven Quinn
Mc carthy
Whelan
Garvin
Long . Clarke and stokes.....couple these guys with given duff finnan keane dunne and o shea and we could have a very exciting tour
He should only be out for 3 weeks. Foley is injured at the moment as well.
far too early for o'dea lads... hopefully he continues as he started.
of course clinton will be in the squad
Was he crazy!! Yeah , in a very special way , an Irishman.
I slept, and dreamed that life was Beauty;
I woke, and found that life was Duty.
What about Daryl Murphy? He's been playing regularly and has scored a few.

Forgot about Glenn Whelan aswell. Playing regularly for a decent Sheffield Wednesday team and supposedly on the form of his life. A goalscoring midfielder is definitely not to be sniffed at....

Whelan could hardly be described as a goalscoring midfielder. He averages one in about every 12 games for Wednesday.
does anyone think stokes will get playing time against san marino? would he be next in line were Doyle or Keane to get an injury? hell i could even argue for him to be included ahead of Keane if he bags a few goals in the championship which i have no doubt he will!
I forgot about about young gibson
I just checked the royal antwerp site
R.Antwerp F.C. 3
-
FCV Dender EH 0
Gibson started and was taken off with 5 mins left
I would pick the following team:
Given
Kilbane??
Dunne
McShane
Finnan
Duff
Carsley
A.Reid??
McGeady
Doyle
Stokes
I think we should give Stokes a try against San Marino, but have concerned as to who would play at LB as usual & not sure who should play along side Carsley in the middle.
They day Tony Stokes is picked over Robbie Keane is likely the day that Stan gets fired. Keane isnt playing all that great at Spurs, but Staunton wont drop him
My Guarantee
Am looking for old Irish matches on VHS, PM me if you have some and I'll upload them here
Why not stick Geary from Shef utd in at left back. He is the only Irish man playing in this role regularly and is not making a show of himself against the best in the premiership. I am sure he will get away with it against San Marino.
Really just based that on his performance this season where he has 6 in 19 which aint too bad for a midfielder. Some of his goals have been absolute crackers too!
