Meyler reveals his unlikely inspiration

David Meyler has reflected on the joy of his international breakthrough, thanking an unlikely source for inspiration.

Nick Colgan was probably Roy Keane’s lowest-key of all the Irish signings at Sunderland, not making a single appearance, yet his presence left an impression on Meyler.

Corkman Meyler finally made his Ireland debut a week ago against Oman after battling his way back from two serious cruciate knee injuries.
