anyone notice mr.murphy's goal yesterday. there were calls from some that he shouldnt be picked for the squad for the brazil game. this lad continues to be picked by mr.keane and is improving all the time. there are 3 reasons why players like murphy MUST be picked for irish squads.
1. he plays top level football (not championship level )
2. he is young enough to improve
3. if we stick by such players in a couple of years we will have a team good enough to compete with the best
appreciation to the players of the past like clinton but come on lads lets look to the future
P.S. good to see andy reid supply the pass to set up murphys goal

Smashing goal and the lad is playing a stromer. He's surprising most people with his recent form - it wasnt long ago that he was very close to amove to QPR but im glad to see him turning it around. It was a joke that himself or Long didnt get a run last wednesday and must have been discouraging for them when they see Duff play up front while they sit on the bench

Yeah he had 2 other chances which were much better than his goal and he made a complete fook up of them! Dont think he's a future first 11 Irish striker but could be a useful squad member if he keeps his form up...

To be ehonest I always thought he was a terrible player. I have never been impressed with him any time I saw him, and he missed 2 shocking chances yesterday.
But credit where credit is due, super strike yesterday and I fully agree with point above, we need a squad full of premiership players.... Murphy is worth a place in the squad but he'll never be good enough to start at International level.

what a pass from Reid. Sir Roy mentioned something when the deal was being done about Andy eing able to 'spot a pass" - I reckon And reid will be worth about 10 pointS to Sunderland before the season is over. I bet Kenwye Jones is happy to se someone that can drop a a pass into him as well. I thin Murphy will be a good player for us, just dont know where to fcukin play him!

Wonder strike and sublime pass from my pal Reidy (I'm a massive fan of Andy Reid). Murphy has so much natural ability and natural ball striking, but he needs to score the easier ones alright, the old term, not a great scorer of goals but a scorer of great goals probably applies to him. He's got a bit to go yet but any more stuff like that and he'll be there or thereabouts.
