Duffy is our best centre-half, for all his faults, what other teams do has absolutely no bearing.

That ain't no decision with Mick at the helm. 
Nor should it be. Duffy is never going to be Paul McGrath, but he has proved his worth at this stage.

Of course but if he only plays 1 league cup game between now and then no player should be untouchable. 
So we should pick a lad who has done f**k all for Ireland ahead of him? This isn’t Football Manager!

Wasn’t overly impressed with Egan. Definitely happier with Keogh In  beside Duffy

He was fine on the ball, but his defensive work wasn't always great. He's yet to impress me in an Irish jersey; certainly he seems more comfortable in a back 3 with Sheffield that he is in a back 4 with us.
We're decent enough..

Or maybe he's seen as a potential leader within the squad. You'd swear some posters had access to the goings on within the squad away from match days. Hourihane and Long were the only other potential candidates from that starting XI.
