Never good to see a player get injured but probably increases our chances of qualification.
If he was used as an impact sub then this would be a loss but working hard and endlessly running around like a headless chicken for 90 minutes doesn't cut it.

Is this a site for Ireland supporters or a forum for slating everything and everyone connected to our national team.

How so? He appears to be asking a question not forming an opinion.

Mcclean has 73 caps for ireland. 10 goals is a decent return but I'd probably only count 2 as important. (Austia and wales)
3 assists is extremely poor, I'd count 1 as important vs Switzerland (it was deflected however) 10 goals 4 goals in friendlies (portugal, USA, Slovakia, Uruguay) 2 vs Gibraltar (in a 7-0 win) 2 vs Moldova (3-1 win) 1 vs Austria (1-0 winning goal) 1 x wales (1-0 winning goal and maybe his most important) 3 assists 1 in a friendly (USA) 1 vs Gibraltar (last minute brady goal in 2-0 win) 1 vs Switzerland (equaliser scored by mcgoldrick, I remember this assist was a deflection off the swiss player) In contrast, Stevens has 14 caps and 2 assists, I dont think mcclean is a big miss for ireland. Lots of energy but really not irreplaceable.

How many assist assists? And how many mattered?

I just hate modern football and this assists nonsense is part of it.

I tend to agree that some of the stuff that’s mentioned these days as stats are pure rubbish but surely assists is a strong barometer of how an attacking player performs.

It's part of the Americanised language and marketing that's rife right now . Almost as irritating as footballers saying ' obviously ' every few seconds when they're being interviewed . McClean will be a serious loss if not available but unlike some granny rule opportunists would play through a pain barrier for his country . Brady is not playing enough football at the moment to slot in though there are other alternatives such as young Doherty , little Maguire ( acknowledgements to M O'Neill for those two appellations ) and Callum Robinson .

Overall that is a fair assessment. His role should be limited to that of a 15 min impact player now. The two goals in Moldova were quite important though, was 1-1 with less than 20 mins to go when he got the first
