Stephen Hughes wants Hoolahan for Ireland .. shut your mouth !

Recommended Posts

Stephen Hughes is calling for Wes Hoolahan to be in the Ireland squad for the Playoff matches v France on the 14th and 18th of november.

We are a League One side just recovering from (another) relegation and we need all our players to win our games and climb the table. It would be a terrible waste if he would be on the subs bence for both games while he is needed very much at Carrow Road v Tranmere and maybe Swindon away.

Stephen Hughes is still suffering from the Japanese flu ... SHUT UP !

This has been doing the rounds in Ireland for at least a week and briefly made the Irish Times.  The RoI have picked up a number of injuries and, currently, appear to not have much creativity available  However for this to happen would need a complete U-turn by Trapattoni who has said on numerous occasions that he will not consider for selection any player below the level of the Championship.  When he last played (one half for the B team) he was more or less in the same role that he now has for you.  He created a goal and laid on two more excellent chances.

I don''t think Wes would regard selection for his country "as a terrible waste". [;)]

If anything, knowing that he can play for us in league and be selected for the republic would give him more cause to stay in January, wouldn''t it ? Let''s say the republic beat France - it could happen.  If you were Wes as things stand, knowing that you could only get into a world cup squad by playing in the championship, would you be tempted to look for another club in January ?

Tranmere are poor and Wes probably won''t be playing that Swindon game anyway as it''s JPT. If he gets called up then I think we''ll be fine.

Unless he is now thinking hmm got a chance of the world cup maybe I should make that move to Swansea!

If hooly got called up and Hughes is again would Rudd give us 3 if he''s on U19 duty and enable us to postpone games?

there is no way that trap will pick hoolahan for his irish squad..given that he wont select the likes of andy reid..trap will not select creative players who do not fit into the style of play he has adopted for the republic national team.
