Kenny has called up a total of 42 players for his squads so far. Goalkeepers
1. Darren Randolph 2. Kieran O'Hara 3. Caoimhin Kelleher 4. Mark Travers Right Back 1. Seamus Coleman 2. Matt Doherty 3. Cyrus Christie Left Back 1. Enda Stevens 2. Ryan Manning 3. Derrick Williams Centre Back 1. John Egan 2. Shane Duffy 3. Kevin Long 4. Dara O'Shea 5. Ciaran Clark 6. Darragh Lenihan Right Midfield 1. Callum O'Dowda 2. Daryl Horgan 3. Marcus Harness Left Midfield 1. James McClean 2. Robbie Brady 3. Ronan Curtis Centre Midfield 1. Jeff Hendrick 2. Conor Hourihane 3. James McCarthy 4. Jayson Molumby 5. Harry Arter 6. Josh Cullen 7. Jack Taylor 8. Aaron McEneff Attacking Midfield 1. Alan Browne 2. Jason Knight 3. Jack Byrne Striker 1. Aaron Connolly 2. Callum Robinson 3. Adam Idah 4. Shane Long 5. James Collins 6. Sean Maguire 7. Troy Parrott 8. Graham Burke 9. David McGoldrick (Retired) Who else is even a realistic option ? The likes of Dunne, Cunningham, Smallbone, Ronan, Sadlier, Hogan, Obafemi is all I can think of. Though I don't think any of them would be in our strongest 23 if everyone was available.

We are so weak in the wide positions. Johnny Hayes is anothe option on the left. He has been very unlucky not to get more caps, especially when you consider O'Dowda has 22

Micheal Duffy was called up but his papers didn't go through, apparently.
Although Jack Taylor and Aaron McEneff were called up I can't see them being called up again, maybe Taylor at a later stage. |

What did Mick say about him after he was injured in the Denmark game? Something like: Judgey, if he has any luck it is hard luck.

Everything points towards moving towards a 352. Almost all of our defensive players play it at club level, and it would fix most of our main issues: We have good full backs but poor wingers We have no creativity in midfield but plenty of legs We have goal-shy strikers playing up front on their own. You could play something like the following, which would be pretty balanced all over the pitch: Randolph Coleman Egan Clark Doherty Stevens McCarthy Molumby Hendrick Long Connolly Players like O'Shea, Williams could play in the wide CB positions also. I have Hendrick in midfield for his energy, but you could play Byrne there, at least against weaker teams. I left Long in up front as for all his faults, im still not sure any of the alternatives are better, at least for now. Also this team wouldnt include Duffy and McClean - two great players for us under the last two managers but they really don't fit a possession style - especially Duffy, who is holding us back a lot at the moment. He plays around 5-10 yards behind the rest of the defence, and most teams let him have the ball as they know his distribution isnt good enough. Disclaimer: We won't do any of the above - Kenny loves his wingers.

I like that system and think it would suit us best. Seems pretty clear that 4-3-3 doesn't (at least so far) |

so, while I don’t think we’ll see a switch to 3-5-2, I do think that Kenny will start to flex the 4-3-3 system more. In the past he has declared admiration for the way that Italian teams play a lop-sided back 4, where only one full back pushed up (way up) to support attacks and the other tucks in to provide cover. Coleman played the tucked in role with Ancelloti’s Everton last season.
I think he has been nibbling around that approach with Ireland. He’s already discussed using Doherty in midfield, and v Bulgaria he had pushed O’Shea way up on the right. With our full complement of players, that approach would have us defending like this (example line up) Randolph Coleman Duffy Egan Stevens Doherty McCarthy Brady Horgan Idah Connolly And attacking like this (with Stevens pushed way up and Doherty wide on the right supporting Horgan) and more bodies in the box. Randolph Coleman Duffy Egan Doherty McCarthy Brady Stevens Horgan Idah Connolly Coleman excels at that sweeping up role when we commit a lot of players forward (think corners and free kicks) and he would give us the pace at the back that we don’t have when we are overcommitted in attack

You asked if I'd be anyone from history, fact or fiction, dead or alive:
I said "I'd be Tony Cascarino, circa 1995" |

Idah is nowhere near the level required.
It'll be interesting to see how Parrot plays for Millwall between now and March. |
