Good win for the U21's. Heres the ratings for Brady for the Hungary game from some Irish footie site. James McCarthy was playing too!!
GreenScene » Ireland 2-1 Hungary U21 Player Ratings Robbie Brady Looks a step above under-21 level, and it seems only a matter of time until the Hull City loanee gets a call-up to the senior squad. Scored a fantastic goal, and caused plenty of trouble for the Hungarian back-line. Man of the Match. 9 |

Brady being tipped by Robbie Savage and Kevin Keegan.
Robbie Savage column: Everton's Ross Barkley, Hull's Robbie Brady and Derby's Jeff Hendrick are the brightest talents around - Robbie Savage - MirrorFootball.co.uk Maybe not the best judges. |

Man Utd winger Brady backed for big things by Hull teammate McKenna | Premiership News | tribalfootball.com
Hull City defender Paul McKenna feels on-loan Manchester United winger Robbie Brady is destined for big things. A seamless transition into senior football has underlined the 19-year-old winger's undoubted talent and McKenna believes City are witnessing the first steps of a special career. "Robbie has been a great signing, he's a great asset," McKenna told the Hull Daily Mail. "For it to be his first season in senior football he's done unbelievably well. "He's going to have games where sometimes it doesn't go for him because he's that creative but he's been outstanding for us. "He can probably try too hard sometimes but that's the attitude that will take him to the top. "I can only see him being a top, top player because he's got huge ability and his work-rate is phenomenal as well." |

Steve Bruce want Robbie Brady at Sunderland | Mail Online
Bruce may look to old boss Fergie once again for help as he hangs onto his job Steve Bruce is considering turning to Sir Alex Ferguson again as he battles to save his job by taking Manchester United youngster Robbie Brady on loan. The 19-year-old joined Hull on a six-month loan in July and is earning rave reviews in the Championship. United’s boss is keen for the Republic of Ireland Under 21 winger to continue his development. Bruce, who meets Ellis Short for talks later this week in which he will try to reassure the owner he can take the club forward, believes Brady would inject some vigour into his attack. Bruce bought Wes Brown and John O’Shea from United in the summer. United want to reward Brady with an improved contract when his present deal expires next summer. Sunderland have also watched Galatasaray winger Albert Riera, 29. United scouts are monitoring Borussia Dortmund midfielder Mario Gotze, 19, Schalke left back Christian Fuchs, 25, and Atalanta striker Manolo Gabbiadini, 19. |

Sunderland could be a great move as they are in such a rut currently someone with Brady's attitude on the pitch (even as a sub) would be very popular.
Another six months with Hull wouldnt exactly be a bad move either... |

Well they were 2-1 down when he came on but getting sent off as a sub against the league leaders isn't the smartest thing Brady will ever do.

Brady looked quality last night against Blackpool reserves. Apparently Fergie told him that he'll be involved in our first team next season. I wouldn't mind that at all, he looked rapid at times last night and strong as an ox. Physically there was no reason he couldn't make the step up. Showed some good one touch play too. A bit of everything really, was impressed.

Left sided player isn't he?
Would be interesting to replace Giggsy (who hardly plays out and out left really anyway) in the squad with an out and out lefty to play on the left. Nani/Young can also play there but if he was behind those two he'd get the odd game that wouldn't hurt. I find that wingers tend to be a bit hit and miss when you're developing them as they want to come on and do it all and often (like Obertan) try way too hard to impress and fizzle. |

Mr Mujac (of redcafe) rates him extremely highly, which is good enough for me.
Bit of a nutter though. Hopefully calms down a bit as he matures. |

Kevin Kilbane was on: Off The Ball on Newstalk - back a few months ago talking about young Irish players, he reckoned that Brady had the potential to be the best of the current young crop (he included McClean in that list).
Looked good at Hull early on in the season, but found himself in-and-ot of the team - during the latter part of the season. I also recall him getting a stupid red card. He does look a talent though and is very physical, quite similar to McClean in that respect. |

To me he's much more like a Gareth Barry - someone who's naturally a cm but gets shunted out to the left cause he's left footed - than a genuine left winger.

Brady is a far more attacking player who likes to run at and beat defenders. |

I don't know. Brady is a bit more like Rooney when he was younger than Barry. Some similarities in build, drive, aggression et al.
Not the same level of talent obviously, but he looked good last night and is promising in general. |

He is an explosive talent, really like the way how he plays. I think he'll go to a premier league club next season to gain more experience. Didn't do that well for Hull in the second half of the season, but let's not forget Danny had bit of a 'mare when he was loaned to Preston as well(partly due to injury)

I can see the Rooney comparison, the all guns blazing Rooney of a few years ago. I know he's got a reputation for being a nutter but our team is craving it, it really is. We need someone that will put the shits up opposition players.
He's nothing like Gareth Barry though. His speed and ability to beat a man sets them apart. He could wind up through the middle though, potentially the kind of player we hope Anderson would be. Some of his runs last night were refreshing. Taking on 4 players and things like that. This lad doesn't get much of a mention but we might have ourselves a real gem here. |
