I think with with Harvey, I think he's obviously a creative player, but I don't think he's I don't think you'd play him in as as in a central midfielder.

He he normally does his be best work off off the either side of the wings.

I think what Harvey does have is he has a a real goal threat.

Um he likes to take people on, he's a a one v one, he's creative, he can get his crosses in.

So I think that type of player you need.

But again, if you've if you if you're bringing in a lot of creative

creativity, you do need people behind them to to shut up shop and and how to help these lads to to to pass the ball on to them to to let them do their best work.

So I think it's just getting the balance right of of how the team wants to play.

Yeah, well I think obviously James the Banquer is the is the one that comes into it.

I know a lot of people say that he's not had an uh a lot of international football, but he's played some um senior football.

He's he's been in and out club level.

Um I think it'd be uh be tough for Jacob Bryan to go in as a as a right wing back.

I think obviously he's done great as a right back um for everything when he's when he's played in there, but to then 'cause the wing back is is to get up and down is to be involved in the

attacking on us to get back and and be part of the defence and

Obviously Jake will tell you he's he's more comfortable being a defender, um, first and foremost.

So I think if Jake's in the team, I think he'd be more likely to be in a a back three or a back four rather than a than a back five, as you say, um, while defending.

But again, the manager will have uh

obviously the the the last few weeks um uh speaking to John, um there's been a lot of work with with who's been available and who's getting minutes and who's playing.

So um the manager will see what the best system or the best players are to get into this system for what what Ireland have been doing over the last few weeks.

So I don't think there's gonna be a big change um sorry over the last few months because we've been competitive and we've got some results off the back of it.
