Played a few times for Wolves in the Championship, the general consensus is that he impressed.

Depends whether the appearances were competitive or not. I was under the impression he could switch back.
We're decent enough..

Not starting for Pompey today, but has enjoyed a decent spell on loan.

I wouldn’t be surprised if he was in and around the Wolves squad next season, and would fancy him to get a few games if he doesn’t leave on loan.

According to Wiki, he played for England at under-17’s level, before switching to us. Would I be right in saying that he can’t switch back to England, seeing as under-17 is a FIFA recognized age level?

If he is committed to us why the fcuk did he even shown up in an English camp .....Grealish mark 2.


Complete opposite, yes born in England, and he was called up for them and then for us, he went and played  couple of times for England before his call up for us, and wants to be a part of our set up.The talk of riches and cars did not interest him, where as the pride in our country and team spirit did.

Remember a certain Derry lad played with the Nordies underage, and is on eor our most committed players.

He was called up to England's under 17's before he was called up to Ireland's squad AFAIK

Exactly,

I see no reason why we should ever not be active in scouting young players who are fully entitled to represent Ireland.

Also, it's the not the Connor Ronan's of this world who I'd be wondering what he truly feels about representing Ireland, its the English born 26/27/28 year old's who only decide to declare for us when they know they have f**k all chance of playing with England. 
Connor Ronan's what? I'm on tenterhooks to see what word was omitted!

Exact same kind of chat I had to Anthony Scully (Born in England, father a true Dub) of West Ham.
Said there is way more unity with Ireland

There is a massive shortage of football coaches at underage level right across every league in the country, this isn't all down to the FAI either.

Too many people give out about this and that at grassroots level, yet do nothing to help solve the problem. More coaches = better players 

So it's not surprising we continue to scan across England looking for players with dual eligibility.

There's a video on twitter of De Bruyne offering him his jersey in the tunnel after the match on Tuesday night, Ronan takes the jersey a little stunned, De Bruyne has his hand out and Ronan goes to shake it, split second later he realises De Bruyne actually wants his jersey in return, the thought clearly didnt occur to him and he looks a bit stunned for a second. 

He had come on in the 72nd minute and did well apparently. Anyone watch that match?
