Doherty is injured, so he's definitely not in |

You asked if I'd be anyone from history, fact or fiction, dead or alive:

Was basing the above on the squad predicted by Balls.ie in the link below, although I did think Doherty was in the squad myself (and well overdue a look-in).

Plus we will drop in the rankings as a result which may cost us a seeded draw in the platoffs

There are no left backs in the squad going over and only one right back, Christie, who presumably they'll want to use sparingly.
Will be an odd line-up anyway. The Mexico squad has all their star names, so should be a serious challenge for whoever gets picked. |

Mickey Mouse game. We already have one friendly to prepare. Don't need another one.

Anyone think that despite Roy talking about lads with the chance to impress the manager etc, MON has basically realised that this game is only a moneyspinner for FAI and has treated it accordingly (and correctly I might add, in my opinion, with bigger games to come) with it being effectively a 'B' squad ??
Don't get me wrong, Roy wasn't lying or anything, and if lads impress, they will be kept on in the squad for the next 2 games, and it is also a genuine opportunity to look at some new faces which I'm sure MON appreciates. But as regards fellas putting their hand up to play V Austria, anyone playing here is unlikely to feature V austria, bar the lads already in the frame like Randolph, Christie, McClean & Murphy, who certainly won't be playing full parts in all 3 games either. Although Christie might, given we have no other RB's. I think MON has separated this game from the real preparations to an extent and is treating it as a one off game. If he is thinking of bringing in anyone V Austria, they will probably play part of the game V Uraguay alongside 7 or 8 of those who will play V Austria, I don't think this game, bar an exceptional performance by someone, will have much of a bearing on who plays in the Austria game. |
