In reality nothing will be confirmed until Kenny calls him up and he is capped in competitive game... get it out of the way early as he seems to have to potential to be useful for us... and if he doesnt want to play for us move on, no big deal really!!!

Sept 3rd we go to Bulgaria and 3 days later we host Finland.
Two competitive games and while we want to be doing well in them, we also want to blood players.
Smallbone, if he plays more PL games between now and then, and I expect he will, should be near the top of the list to be blooded.  
One issue is these two games are prep matches for the big play-off a month later, so need to be used to get the players setup for that.
But a PL starter should be at least in the squad for that double-header and if he shows up, should be capped.

I suppose he said that on your Football Manager save.

He was born in England, this of course means he's English on both paternal and maternal lines back to the 8th Century B.C, has never visited Ireland or knows that it's a separate sovereign state to the U.K

On the bench with idah also on the bench for norwich.

Will be good to see how obafemi gets on. 

All in all it would be good to see Obafemi, smallbone and idah all on the pitch at some point today

He's just after coming on for the last 10 or so minutes. 

Idah is also after coming on from Norwich, very positive to see Thumbs Up

He looks like a younger version of Hendrick.

No, paranoia is not "justified", it's chosen. The excessive scepticism really is ridiculous when you think about it, what percentage of underage players who line out for us actually end up defecting? 
Approximately the precise percentage that are actually good enough to play for England. Depends if he thinks he is?

So....Rice and the uncapped Grealish, then? The likes of Harry Kane, James Madison, Gazza, etc don't count as they never wore the green. Very early days re Smallbone but I would trust Stephen Kenny to be on the ball on these matters. Even Martin O'Neill had the wit to give Michael Obafemi his debut at a very young age to make sure he was our player before Nigeria or England did.

Talk about jumping the gun but my wording could've been better LOL

Haven't seen much of him. Think he scored a goal in the FA cup earlier this year.

Plenty of English born guys who have played for us could have won a few caps for England, just look at how average many of the guys capped by England over the last 20 years have been. Are you seriously suggesting that its impossible for an English born player to favour playing for Ireland for any reason other than not being good enough for England?
We're decent enough..
