Trapatoni wants a medal for getting that shower of ***** to the european finals. I suppose there is arguments for both sides. Surely the side he picked the first game was his best side in his mind if so why change it as the players out of the side are not good enough to get in On the other hand they have been rubbish and been batted both games, so a couple of chances could freshen things up. IMO he should of given McClean a start, not because he plays for us but because the lad can create things and would add a bit of flair, McGeady and Duff have done nowt and IMO McClean is better than both of these.
Ireland have been woeful mind. Without doubt the worst side in the competition. Given looks a pale shadow of his former self.
If he'd dropped a load of players you conspiracy theorists would be saying he's played a weakened side to let Italy win...damned if you do and damned if you don't with some people.
