Great goal from Browne, hitting serious form lately, himself or Hourihane surely have to be worth a look in place of Hendrick who is seriously off form lately.

I think McG's point is that Preston, as a club with limited means, (I believe their record signing is still the £1.5m they paid for David Healy in 2001) obviously scout the LoI for bargains and have have offered several LoI players a route into Championship football. Would that be the case we're they to attain PL status with the newfound spending power that that it would bring about? |

I'm not sure if its Preston who scout the LOI, so much as it was Grayson who scouted the LOI intensively for a short period of time... In any case, I think the positives of Preston getting promoted would far outweigh the negatives from an Irish POV.

Hes played well always on the ball looking to make something happen. Compare that when he played against turkey. I can barely remember him touching the ball. Such a difference in styles.

There is also a difference between international football and the English second tier, if not necessarily in quality but in pace and tempo.

Not really, the likes of Moldova and Georgia would be Championship standard at best, as are many of the other teams we come up against. Even Wales and Austria in our last group drew a fair few of their players from the Championship/Championship quality leagues. People vastly overestimate how big a step up it is to international football, bar the big nations, most sides are fairly modest. The biggest difference for the likes of Browne and Hourihane is how they're asked to play for Ireland vs. how they're asked to play for their club sides; with Ireland, they're basically there as extra defenders, with Preston and Villa, they're pushed forward and given support.

I thought he was prestons best player and neil took him off. Strange decision. You could hear some boos when the board went up. That game was crying out for a horgan type player. The subs that came on were really average.

I don’t think either of Moldova or Georgia would be anywhere near the standard of some of the teams in the Championship. Wolves for one, would probably beat us fairly handy. |

In form team on the brink of winning one of the world’s most competitive leagues, boasting a few ex-champions league standard players VS a team mostly made up of players who won’t be getting promoted from the same league this season. I’d fancy much of the Championship’s top teams against us, and I’d certainly fancy them against Georgia and Moldova. Edited by Maccatacca - 02 Apr 2018 at 5:22pm |

Probably - they'd certainly outplay us. But who would Doherty play for?

I never said it was a step up at all, my comment was that it is a very different style of football, generally, and that it takes time for players to adapt.
