David Meyler captains very attacking Ireland team to play Moldova

Time to go for the jugular.

This is it, two games to keep our World Cup chances alive. We need a win against Moldova in the Aviva Stadium tonight if Wales hold out for the three points in Georgia but we also need a performance. But Martin O'Neill is going for it with some bold choices.

• Callum O'Dowda starts
• Shane Long and Daryl Murphy are in
• Wes Hoolahan is in too

The bench isn't half bad either with plenty of interesting options. https://twitter.com/FAIreland/status/916354151763849216 Perhaps the most exciting name to see in the matchday squad is that of Preston striker Sean Maguire. https://www.instagram.com/p/BZ6jxmDlc9D/
