Was nodding in agreement until I saw the RW

Not sure I’d have long there either mind you 
Robinson’s been more miss than hit for us and I’m not convinced with Maguire

Long and McGoldrick both won't start even though McGoldrick can slot in behind him. Can't see him playing Long on the right plus it would be a waste imo. 

Coleman will start unless he's injured. 
Wings? They're only the band The Beatles could have been.

Agree with this. Not the most inspiring team but I'd say it's the most likely. May end up with Coleman instead of Doherty but other than that I'd say this will be close to spot on.

get out of it... cullen and molumby in playoff... its not a computer game we are playing...
mclean to start.. big game experience

100% McClean will start and we won't be playing 3-5-2 formation. Not much will change. Coleman will start when he shouldn't be starting and wouldn't be surprised to see Whelan start which definitely should not happen

On penalties. It is our best hope.


Or by default.  We can do is draw 1-1 our way to Euro Finals glory.  I know Mick believes it.

The big problem I see with this team (and I like it by the way- though Hendrick is a certainty over one of Cullen or Molumby) is that you could give Mick 344 goes at picking different first 11's, and he still wouldn't pick this one.

I think that would give us a platform to control the game, two tenacious midfielders playing regularly and well for their clubs who can tackle, play a pass, and deputise for the full-backs when they push forward. Would free up Hourihane to be more expressive and dangerous, easing the defensive burden on him which we know he isn't good at. Up front, McGoldrick would have the freedom to either get in the box or drop deeper and be a link man for the two pacey wide finishers either side of him. He's good at both.

That's the team i feel would play most to our strengths at this moment.

My eyebrows are raised as high as seanies at the suggestion of him starting this game!

I think the key to qualifying is Doherty starting instead of Coleman and Glenn Whelan not starting . If Mick has the balls to make them changes we'll have a far better chance to qualifying

Maguire going through a tough patch at PNE at the moment, looks like he may struggle to regain his place.
