Even if he was capped vs Latvia, that wouldn't tie him down.

He's played for Ireland at every age group so far, so maybe they aren't worried about him. Vata didn't grow up in Ireland. He's the one who might end up playing for Albania.

No but it's one cap closer and even if he was just Irish he should be capped young. On the Albanian football forum he's being talked about as a potential poach. Be a f**king sickner if Albania came in for him, possibly with the promise of first team football. Look at the highlights of his Hattrick on YouTube, unreal player, reminds me of the 70s superstar Vasilis Hatzipanagis https://albanianfootballforum.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=294&sid=26c679f558e1c196d92424efc138451b&start=200

I would be happy to have him in the under 21's and looking after the underage setup a la Kerr but he should not be running the show at the top. I think he has been given a good chance but I think he is destined to make us worse because he is obsesses with struggling championship and league one players.


I wouldn't be a fan of SK at all but it's only fair that he's given the chance to have a go at the playoffs, unless we get absolutely embarrassed in the group. If we don't qualify for the Euros he should go, simple as that in my view.

Yep. Depends on when the playoffs take place if we are in them. But I would be inclined to f**k him off if there is a large gap. Honestly I have serious doubts now about Kenny. I backed him the whole way but it is clear he is in rudderless territory and as others have said making selections in job preservation mode.

Nearly more chance of us topping the group than making a playoff with the permutations we need to work out

Please tell me 33 year old James McClean isn't a starter for Ireland these days? Did he start our last games? I can't even remember. These games could be very ugly.

I think left wing back is very open. Could be him, could be O'Dowda, Doherty would be the best option but probably the least likely of the three for whatever reason.

Has more assists at LWB this season than Manning, O'Dowda, Stevens or Brady who have all been playing there in the same league. Hes might have lost a yard of pace but hes still fitter and as quick as the others and at least he tries a leg at getting back to defend. As quality a player Manning is going forward he doesnt give two f**ks about sprinting back to help his team when needed.

You can’t remember either way but you’re going to criticise him anyway? Well done. Clap

If his old man has anything to do with it he won’t be within an ass’s roar of playing for Albania.

Awful lot of cry arsing going on, I'd have named 28 and stuck azaz and coventry in. Clearly doesn't fancy Manning, Szmodics is no world beater. Cannon, Hodge and Ebosele are fine with the U21s. None of the named players had a chance of starting vs France and rightly so imo, so its no great surprise. Smallbone has to start vs Latvia though. Keane over hogan is a surprise!

I don't think this team is beyond comprehension. Knight in for Smallbone, O'Shea in for Omobamidele. He likes O'Dowda but he may make way for Doherty with Coleman  moving to the right?

Coleman is in form and has to play. Doherty should be picked on the left. 

He won't give Smallbone his competitive debut against France, Knight will most likely start for his energy
