Don't hold your breath for Irelands, they're still trying to sort out a Manager.

I actually can't wait for this!

yeah me neither.shud be good one.see kaka in action

Not that hot really

No Ronaldinho?

Quite an experimental squad for Brazil, a few players there Ive never even heard of. I'd still expect them to win though, with our team still being managerless I cant see them doing much

It'll end a draw. The Ireland team more or less picks itself. Not much Trappatoni or anyone will really be able to do

..................Given

Finnan...Dunne..McShane..O'Shea

McGeady..Carsley..A. Reid...Duff/Hunt

.............Keane....Doyle

Or something along those lines

The shock for me was no Diego. I've been more impressed with Diego than any of the other attacking midfielders.

Oh and where's Dani Alves, Fred, Maxwell and Juan?

Ireland squad v Brazil:

Goalkeepers: Shay Given (Newcastle United), Joe Murphy (Scunthorpe United), Colin Doyle (Birmingham City)

Defenders: Stephen Kelly (Birmingham City), John O'Shea (Manchester United), Andy O'Brien (Bolton Wanderers), Joey O'Brien (Bolton Wanderers), Kevin Kilbane (Wigan Athletic), Richard Dunne (Manchester City), Paul McShane (Sunderland).

Midfielders: Lee Carsley (Everton), Andy Reid (Charlton Athletic), Steven Reid (Blackburn Rovers), Aiden McGeady (Celtic), Stephen Hunt (Reading), Liam Miller (Sunderland), Damien Duff (Newcastle United).


Forwards: Robbie Keane (Tottenham Hotstpur), Kevin Doyle (Reading), Shane Long (Reading), Daryl Murphy (Sunderland).

Jesus, what a shocking pile of crap (bar Dunne)

Why is Lucas in the Brazil squad and Denílson isn't?

Isn't Denilson injured?

Just reading an interview with Richard Dunne, I didn't know Finnan retired the fud!

'Finnan announced his international retirement last month while O'Brien called time on his Republic career over the weekend.'

The Interview

Yes, a hamstring injury.

How come J-Axe doesn't know jack-s about his Club?

I'm going to go for an Irish morale-boosting 1-1

Kaka out, Diego In according to Papasmurf

1-3 to Brazil for me.

1-3 to Ireland for me.

Thats a bold prediction Flips!

yeah.. i need to support ireland.. a majority of my fave players are there in the squad.. lol..

I sincerely hope Doyle, Hunt and Long are amongst your favourites

well.. make them in my list then.. XD
compared to those brasilians.. urgh.. ~.~*

Liam Miller is starting ahead of Hunt again.

What a joke.

to be honest hunt does better when he comes off the bench.always gives 100per cent coming from the bench.

Hunt gives 100% from start to finish, on the pitch, off the pitch and at home in the kitchen.

Liam Miller is tripe. Hunt should walk into that side.
