Drennan and Burke. Like a prolific Irish footballing Batman and Robin.

@AVFCOfficial: FT - Sunderland U21 0-4 Villa U21. #AVFC

[Mazrim]

FT. 0-4

Drennan scores a hattrick, gets an assist and has one chalked off.
Not bad work.

[Jockey Randall]

What position does Drennan play? Striker?

[Mazrim]

Yes.

[Jockey Randall]

Yes.

Cheers.

[Mazrim]

Young Irish lad from Kilkenny (the ancient hunting grounds of my mother's people).
Something of a fox in the box like Weimann. Scored a shitload over the last year or so.

[Jockey Randall]

Sounds very promising.

Have a friend who's watched a lot of football at that level and he raves about Drennan, like Benteke he always seems to find a yard of space in the box.  Lets hope he carries on progressing well.

Can he play in midfield? Or centre-half?
