no seamus coleman = no ireland. i'm still upset about his injury. he's such an underrated defender. not just physically, but he's a great leader and incredibly smart.

Yeah but I was thinking more of Long and Houlihan. Christ, McClean works his socks off but there's no point if there's nobody there when he passes... or, worse, if it's a Dane!

long is alright, think he's a little too inconsistent though. haven't seen much of Houlihan but he's a Villa lad so i'll give him the pass.

Long works hard, and he's often the one on the end of a pass that would otherwise go into the stands. Houlihan is one of those guys who can organise and lead, sort of a latter-day Roy Keane. Maybe.
