Irish team to play Sweden Team: David Forde; Seamus Coleman, Richard Dunne, John O'Shea, Marc Wilson; Jon Walters, James McCarthy, Glenn Whelan, James McClean; Robbie Keane (capt), Shane Long. I thought Brady might have trumped McClean but Trappatoni still won't start him.
Have to agree. Looking at our players who ARE away on international duty only Gedo and Elmohamady look likely to start a game. Egypt play Guinea in Alexandria on tuesday 10th sept. I expect Brady to at least make it off the bench at some point though for ROI.
I'm glad that they aren't starting but, how the hell does McClean keep managing to get ahead of Brady?!
