He played abroad before it was cool... Join Conor and Johnny this week as they delve into the career of Ireland striker David Connolly. Breaking out at Watford, where he played his first game at 16, Connolly was quickly thrown into the Ireland set up where he remained from 1996 to 2005. Quick, and with a keen eye for goal, Connolly was compared with everyone from George Best to Paul Dickov. He had some great moments for the Republic, and nearly cemented his place in Irish history with 'that' miss against Spain in the 2002 World Cup. Criminally under-rated during his playing days - he only played one season in the Premier League - Connolly's long club career is 'expertly' dissected by the boys this week.
