Been a few discussions in difference threads. Might as well have the one if everyone has an opinion. This is what I think...
 
Think it should be a mixture of experience and youth. Leave Keane, Dunne, Whelan, Kilbane and McGeady at home. We know what they can do in their positions. I'd still bring Given (for the bench in case Westwood got injured), St.Ledger, O'Shea and Doyle for experience.
 
Starting XI:
 
Westwood
Coleman--St.Ledger--O'Shea (C)--Ward
McCarthy--Wilson--Fahey--Treacy
Long--Walters
 
six subs:
1. Doyle for Walters
2. Stokes for Long.
3. Lawerence on for Wilson/Fahey and move McCarthy into centre.
4. Cunningham for Ward.
5. Clark for O'Shea
6. Foley on for Coleman

Tracey will not be called.

Knowing Trap it will be the same as the Russia\Slovakia game with maybe a couple of other lads a getting a run.
McCarthy, Wilson, Coleman and Walters must get a run.

He wouldn't set me free,
So he kept me soul for ransom.

I'd give Murphy a go up front

                   Given,
O'Shea Dunne Ledge Cunningham
Fahey McCarthy Whelan McGeady
               Keane Long
 
Keane needs games so will play and he is also captain.
 
I'd then introduce the following players.
 
Westwood for Given
Walters for Keane
Wilson for McCarthy
Gibson for Whelan
Coleman for Fahey
Foley for O'Shea

Regardless of what the team I think Coleman MUST get a start.
Surely Fahy and Long did enough in Slovakia to deserve starts.

I agree whole heartedly that Keane should be left out of this one Andy

What I hope he plays
 
Given (unlikely to be playing for City by then unless there's an injury)
Coleman Dunne St. Ledger Ward
Fahey McCarthy Gibson Tracey
Long Doyle
 
I'd bring in Foley, Walters, Cunningham and Stokes at some stage.
 
He won't play this team or anything like it.
 
Depending on injuries I don't see him using any more than 3 non-regulars. In some ways it would be no harm if a few of the regulars developed a small Ryan Giggs style "twinge" the week before the game thereby forcing Trapp to make more changes that be might want.

Still Important to win the friendlies for ranking points so I would start with a fairly strong team. Try and build a lead then make some changes. Think it will be 4-4-2 no matter what but it would be nice to see a change in formation too 4-3-3 or 4-5-1 which would suit some of the less experienced players - Coleman, McCarthy, Fahey and Stokes
 
Given
 
Coleman     Dunne    St. Ledger   O'Shea
 
McCarthy   Whelan   Gibson    McGeady
 
Keane   Doyle
 
Subs to get at least half an hour
 
Wilson for Whelan
Long for Doyle
Stokes for Keane
Cunningham for O'Shea
Fahey for McGeady

there is no point playing too many young lads you need a mix so id say the spine of the team will stay the same with maybe kilbane, robbie dropped and one of the mids dropped and maybe duff or hunt to come back on the wing
 
cunningham and long to start but a few of the younger boys to come on mid way in second half, coleman was not even in the orignal squad do doubt he will start not trapps style,
But fumble in a greasy till

And add the halfpence to the pence

And pray to shivering prayer, until

You have dried the marrow from the bone.

Ok, so drop Keane... We're crying that he's not getting first team football at Spurs, so drop him for this? The guy needs goals and confidence.
They finally did it man... They killed my f**kin' car...

murphy
 
coleman st ledger oshea ward
 
mc carthy whelan fahey mc geady
 
keane stokes
 
think we should go for a mix of fringe players and experience but have a bit more fringe players
 
we dont know if we have a good back up keeper so i would put given as a sub
 
fahey is much better in center midfield but i think lacks a bit of confidence
 
i'd start keane cos hes not getting much matches at spurs
 
i'd call up wes houlahan also.
 
this is a great chance for us to experiment.
