To me this suggest O'Neill realises now he f**ked up at the end of the last campaign not bringing in Maguire earlier when we needed a Goal Scorer badly. His Move to Preston didnt make him instantly a better player so he should have been brought in when he was scoring for fun for Cork. 

Id say this is the thinking behind this and Burke has obviously impressed him. Chances are he will move form Rovers next season anyway.

Comments from Bradley suggest to me that he'll start against the Yanks

I would hope he would start against the usa.. seemed to be one of the few bothered to look up when he had the ball and play it to another Ireland player

If he went back to england and sits on the bench at some league1 club what good would that do him. He may not be guaranteed a first team spot like he is now with rovers. And hes getting picked for the national squad.

What happens if Burke plays brilliantly and scores a goal or two? 

I still can’t help but feel his call up is just a token gesture, but wouldn’t be surprised to see him do well tomorrow considering the opposition. 

Does MON just drop him and pick Hogan, Walters, Long etc over him in the next squad? 

This isn’t a dig at Martin but I’d say he probably hopes that Burke doesn’t give him a reason to be picked again, he’s almost guaranteed a decent chunk of game time tomorrow.

if he did score he would have to be picked again. Until horgan gets some gametime or a new club he should be in before him anyway.

Fair play to the lad, a fair bit off the required level but hopefully this is just the start 
Here we go again
