Big Cas?

Not that year. McGrath got a few I'm sure. He was PFA player of the year

Are Norn Iron players included within that Irish goal count?

When shane long goes off form he really goes off form. He has been off form nearly since the germany goal!!

Great work rate which is good for Ireland however with that kind of form he's not going to make a premier league team. Austin, Ings and the Italian guy are always going to get picked ahead of him.

Except last Monday when he was picked ahead of Austin and the Italian lad

Here's another angle from last season

The trend is not your friend

THE NUMBER OF Irish players in the Premier League has decreased every season over the last five years.
From a high of 33 in 2011-12 the number has dropped to just 16 as the 2017/18 season gets underway this weekend.
