Michael O’Neill: The numbers behind his century of Northern Ireland games

Advertisements

Of the 94 players used by O’Neill, 63 were born in Northern Ireland while 31 qualified through eligibility.

O’Neill has handed debuts to 49 players, the last of which was Jamie McDonnell, who won his first cap off the bench in Germany in September.

Across the two spells, 14 players have been handed the captain’s armband by O’Neill.

Davis’ importance to Northern Ireland is evident in the 61 times he wore the armband, and Jonny Evans is the only other player to break double figures.

Since Davis and Evans retired, O’Neill has rotated the captaincy around a number of his young squad, and this can be seen that Trai Hume is next on the list with six while Shea Charles and Conor Bradley both have led Northern Ireland three times each.
