Gavin Kilkenny

Would he be the first to share a name with a county?

This campaign just about came too soon for the likes of Cullen, Knight, Molumby, Taylor and Kilkenny. By the time the NL starts we'll be in a good place at keeper, defense and midfield. We just need one of our strikers to really break through now.

Certainly not too soon for Cullen. He's been arguably our best player over the entire campaign 

Not meant as a slight on Josh.

Cullen has been good throughout this campaign. 

When I say it's been a campaign too soon for him I mean that in a few months time we may look back at this period as a time when himself and a few other players really nailed down their place in team and we will benefit from this greatly in the upcoming Nations League campaign.

This campaign has been all about player development and about developing a style of play so has in a way come too soon for some players who I think will be significantly involved in securing good results for us in the months to come.

Feels to me like they'll be competing. And that the other player in there would be Hendrick or Molumby if he can kick on. 

There's real balancing act though which depends a lot on the two behind the striker. If you're playing more attacking players in there then you might like two lads sitting. However, I think Jamie McGrath played that role exactly how Kenny would need it and covered a lot of ground further back than one of the more attacking players that can play there would. 

I see it the same as banjaxed. Cullen and kilkenny like to close down players quickly and offer for the ball. Kilkenny is more the playmaker, his range of passing is really good and with Cullen next to him he can focus in that a little more. 

I think they should compliment each other very well.
