When you pull on that green shirt you are doing it for everyone that lives in Ireland and everyone you've ever known. Its a big thing you have to be proud of where you're from.

Exactly its crazy how people on here hate Mcshane.He captained united youth team to win the Fa youth cup. At the age of 19 he played a full season in the championship with brighton and was their player of the year. I hope Egan is a great player but what is the chance that he will play a full season in the championship this season like mcShane did at the same age? McShane has a great attitude dont think anyone could argue with his will to win

I doubt it, at best he'd be fifth choice centre half behind Dunne, St Ledger, O'Shea, Clark, and probably Wilson. Promote him to the U21s and let him settle there, then to the seniors |

under 21s is fair craic ------------- Niall Quinn is god |
Posted By: Green Devil
Date Posted: 04 Aug 2011 at 9:44am
Trap use's O'Shea as a right back mainly , Clark is seen as a left back for the short-term with a view to being the main man at the heart of our defence once Dunne is retired , Wilson is a full back or midfielder??! Egan gets 10 or 15 games with Sunderland this season or gets a loan move to a Championship club i can see him getting promoted to the senior squad within a year imo ------------- "He drives two Ferraris; I think he's a very lucky lad to have 50 caps for Ireland," Eamonn Dunphy on Glenn Whelan |
