NewCorkSeth Hogan, Maguire and O'Brien all called up for a potential first cap but again no Kelly.
Baffling to me at this point. What does he have to do? Grow?

Play in a different position perhaps?
Aren't they all forwards?

Winston Biscuit give us the players in his position that he would have to displace to get a call up?

From Despair To Where? So there's at least another 7 players vying for his position?
Of those 7 players, I'd say McCarthy, Meyler, Arter and Hendrick are ahead of him, Hoolihan is possibly ahead of him and he's on par with O'Kane.

Personally, despite how under-rated Hoolahan was, he's 35 and not going to add much to the future of the team. If we are to some how qualify he's not going to be on the plane (Same goes for John O'Shea and Daryl Murphy)
Players like Liam Kelly and Declan Rice need to start getting called up to the full squad to get used to the international scene.

Surely this week is a week for experienced heads and a bit of know-how.
Once they've qualified, or not, it's probably a better time to start building for the longer term future.

BR0B0T The Irish team really is devoid of any real talent at the moment

HeinzGuderian Kelly has done nothing to prove himself yet.
Getting the ball in acres of space and passing it 5 yards without taking any risks is hardly groundbreaking midfield play.
It's the way Stam plays him though I suppose.

Its funny looking back at the talent we used to have at our disposal. I'd do anything for a team of Denis Irwins.

xackly....used to have some decent players now it's mid level prem at best
Denis Irwin, Kevin Moran, Paul McGrath, Roy Keane, Andy Townsend, Ray Houghton, John Aldridge, Ronnie Whelan, Niall Quinn, Frank Stapleto, Duff, Shay Given etc

NewCorkSeth Liam Brady being the obvious omission there. A few of those are world class. I wonder what happened?

If most of those players were playing now they'd probably only be at mid-table Premier League sides. With all the Premier League money floating around our club sides have the pick of pretty much any player in world football so I don't think the likes of Moran, McGrath, Townsend, Houghton, Aldridge or Quinn would be playing for a top 4 side.
