He's a big leader in the squad.
You've also got Benny.
He's a huge leader in that squad.
who's not playing much club football, someone who maybe is not as big of a leader off the pitch, but is on the pitch, is Troy Parrott.
Benet has still got a lot to give.
He is, but I still think if you look at how Seamus Coleman has extended his Ireland career, I think that players like Judeo Zogbane would be willing to give absolutely every ounce and every drop that they have left for the green shirt for as long as they can.
You're right, the chapter is closed and we're kind of in a new era and I would be interested to see how long, you know, shame is the big debate, but how long does Robbie Brady have left in an Irish shirt?
How long does John Egan have left in an Irish shirt?
Players who've given us huge memories throughout the years and are so key off the pitch in leadership roles, like time doesn't wait for any man and it's certainly not waiting for footballers, you know.
Yeah, this is quite worrying.
So James Abankwa came on in that role last night and unfortunately went off injured.
But James Abankwa is the centre half for Wofford.
He's played right back in a back four sometimes, but not right wing back.
Girozzi Agbene is capable of playing right wing back but Girozzi Agbene is too important further up the pitch on the right hand side of that front three that he needs to play there.
You can't sacrifice that and play him in the right wing back.
You've Festy Abusele who is playing out in Turkey with Istanbul, Basik Shir who is not having a great run of it at the moment.
I know Hamer is a fan of Festy.
He does quite like him.
So that is potentially where you're putting your hat on a player if Seamus is to step away after that.
You've Danny McNamara, who's kind of on the fringes.
