UEFA Nations League - Republic of Ireland vs Denmark - Republic of Ireland vs Wales

Seamus Coleman out of Wales/Denmark games

Jonathan Walters naturally out

Stephen Ward also out (sent his injury update via WhatsApp Audio clip)

Harry Arter is included in the Ireland squad

No Declan Rice

Richie Towell gets his first call-up

O’Neill remains ‘hopeful’ that Declan Rice will opt for Ireland. Says he has spoken with the family and player himself and he wants more time to consider his future. Should know before year is out.

Martin O’Neill says Harry Arter and Roy Keane had a conversation and Harry is happy with the outcome.

Will there be a 7 day media frenzy about Arter being back in the squad?

At least he manned up, not like Ward who is still no doubt shitting himself at facing the music.

Give him a chance to see if England have any interest I suppose.

I hope he’s never capped the cunt

Roy or Rice ?

Only a gobdaw would believe this is down to Keane. Its down to Ireland being shit and England getting in his ear.

Oh and, the fact that he’s English.

and Eric Dier & Jordan Henderson current incumbents .

He was badge kissing only a few months back and doesn’t have the gumption to put the whole thing to bed by just making a statement of his intention to switch allegiance. He can enjoy his maximum 10 caps with England we don’t need cowardly cunts like him.

We need any semi competent professional footballer who can kick a ball to a team mate 10 yards away . We don’t have many of these and Rice has these attributes .

Irrelevant, you should never have to make a decision on wanting to play for one nation or another this is not club football it’s part of your own identity.

we need to produce footballers capable of passing the ball 10 yards as opposed to fucking waiting like a cur at the end of a table for Englands youth system failures to “choose” us.

O’Neill is some fucking mug. Jumped through hoops for Grealish and now this Rice prick. Will only give games then to LOI lads after they’ve moved to the UK. Was Seanie Maguire any better a month after he went to Preston, than he was at Cork?

This cunt needs getting rid of. Get in Stephen Kenny

Exactly get that cunt Delaney out of there absolute disaster.

Roy was the same.

This says a lot. Modern and progressive Irish rugby has people immigrating to here to play while the ROI soccer team are throwing tantrums over losing out on the emigrants.
