McCarthy may delay naming squad for Swiss game

Mick McCarthy is considering delaying a decision on the make-up of his final squad for the Euro 2020 qualifier against Switzerland and the friendly against Bulgaria, amid concerns about the impact of injuries and the amount of game-time some of those in contention are getting with their clubs.

“Our main concern at the moment is still about players getting games, but Darren Randolph and Keiren Westwood are playing well, the four Sheffield United players are all starting, as is Scott Hogan, while Robbie Brady is still recovering from his rib injury,” said the Ireland manager. “I’ll probably see where we are after the League Cup games next week before making a final decision.”
