Mick seems to have changed his tune slightly:

Now Duffy can take him under his protective wing on ROI duty.

Could be bad news for us if he gets an injury.

Finally we are seeing the fruits of the academy.

Connolly and Alzate are just the beginning - there are more gems in there

Kudos should also go to Simon Rusk and his team.

Agreed.

Opposite them Eric Dier moved with all the easy grace of an out-of-commission combine harvester, understandably rusty.

Ireland must be wetting their pants in excitement over Connolly. From having Shane Long as their main striker to suddenly having the PL’s next big thing on their hands in just a few days. That’s one way to transform a team.

I'm fairly sure Farmer McArthy wil screw it up though.

Jayson Molumby can't be far off a full call up either, seeing as he's now getting regular championship football with Millwall.

Saw him against Luton the other day and he looked good.
