Robbie Brady getting used to defensive duties

Robbie Brady is a study in footballing evolution: From winger to wing-back to full-back, but still with a licence to thrill when it comes to whipping in crosses and delivery of the dead ball.

The Dubliner now looks like he’s a certain starter against Scotland in the left-full slot with which he says he’s growing increasingly comfortable after what he admits were “a couple of little cagey moments” in the 1-1 draw with Poland in March.

“It’s a different position that I’m used to playing at the club,” the Hull City man acknowledges.
