Talented Youngsters Earn Irish International Call Up

Last updated : 10 May 2005 By Mark Maher

All three players are included in the squad that face a qualifier against Israel next month, but will join up for a 5 day training camp in Shropshire next Monday.

Patrick McCarthy has been in excellent since joining Leicester from Manchester City for £100,000, but endured a nightmare against Plymouth where he was substituted before half time.

Alan Sheehan started his first game for City at Plymouth, and looks to have a promising future ahead of him after a composed performance at left back.

Stephen Dawson has yet to be introduced to first team action. However, the fiery midfielder has been offered a new contract by Levein, and should get his opportunity for first team football next season.
