Irish Soccer Players Abroad

We’re gonna win the lot lads

I am surprised Ogbene is doing so well in the championship. Think he is out of contract next summer. Could get a big move.

He is a great bit of stuff

21s manager was second captains yesterday. Interesting enough fella.

Robbie Brady back in MMT squad

Looks like Aaron Connolly will be in u21s for play off

All of our squad play in the English league system with three players contracted to Welsh teams

2/3 of our Goalkeepers play at the highest league level
4/9 of our Defenders
0/7 of our midfielders (two play in the third level)
0/5 of our forwards

Four in our squad are from Cork!

How many at the highest level are regular starters ?

The two goalkeepers are - Bazunu and Travers. Coleman, Doherty & Duffy are not regulars, Collins is.

Three out of six is the answer.

Travers a sub now.

How did he manage that and he’s 22?

If you are 21 at the start of the qualifying campaign you are eligible for the whole thing. Common enough to have 23 year olds playing in the championship themselves.

Ogbene > Obafemi

Going off the summer Ireland games I’d have Obafemi ahead of Ogbene by a considerable distance.

The Under 21 Play Off is an absolutely huge tie.

Pity that prick Connolly has been selected.

You’re basing that on one game

Connolly used to destroy lads at u21 a few years ago but he was a much better player back then

No goals in Venezia and they’re not going great. A fella with a great future behind him unfortunately.

It’s very hard make it when you’ve no first touch.

He wasn’t really a part of the squad all along and I’d say is the type of lad who’ll upset the apple tart.

Leopards don’t change their spots

Came on against Ukraine too and was excellent. Ogbene definetely not a centre forward.
