Nathan Collins says Ireland ‘in a positive place' under Hallgrimsson as he shares exciting verdict of World Cup hopes
Ireland begin their qualifying campaign in September WORLD BEATERS Nathan Collins says Ireland 'in a positive place' under Hallgrimsson as he shares exciting verdict of World Cup hopes NATHAN COLLINS does not believe it is "bullish" to suggest Ireland have put themselves in a position to qualify for the World Cup. Heimir Hallgrimsson's men begin their pursuit of qualifying for next summer's competition at home to Hungary on September 6. 2 Nathan Collins believes Ireland are in a good place to qualify for the World Cup Credit: Stephen McCarthy/Sportsfile 2 Heimir Hallgrimsson and Collins have both been positive about their chances Credit: Stephen McCarthy/Sportsfile The more truncated qualification campaign will conclude with a trip to Budapest in November, with games home and away to Portugal and Armenia in between. The mood music around the team has changed in recent times, particularly after their two-legged Nations League relegation play-off win over Bulgaria in March. And Collins believes they are in a good place heading into the campaign. He told SunSport: "I think the way it's been since the start of last year, it's been positive for Ireland as a whole. "Our results, the way we've been playing our football, it's been positive. I think we're in a good place overall. "The fact that a lot of players have been playing football before then, a lot of players in a better place this time than potentially last year. "It's all really good and well for Ireland football. "It's exciting times. We've given ourselves a chance and that's all you can do before it kicks off." A common concern for the Republic of Ireland has been the level to which the senior squad are playing. To this end, this past summer has seen some progress, even if the number of Ireland players in the Premier League (12) is down on 2024/25. 'Don't say that on camera' - Nathan Collins' admission about Caoimhin Kelleher's move leaves Heimir in stitches Nathan Collins will be captaining Brentford, managed by ex-Ireland assistant Keith Andrews, and has been joined by Caoimhin Kelleher after his move from Liverpool. Josh Cullen, meanwhile, will be skippering Burnley after they were promoted from the Championship. Seamus Coleman is the Everton club captain, and is joined on the books at the Merseysiders by Mark Travers and Jake O'Brien. There are 47 Irish players at Championship clubs, more than any other country. Quartet Dara O'Shea, Chiedozie Ogbene, Sammie Szmodics and Jack Taylor are seeking a return to the top tier with Ipswich Town after they were relegated last season. Bristol City also have a heavy Irish influence, with Jason Knight leading the pack, while Finn Azaz will be looking to have another strong year with Middlesbrough. Gavin Bazunu is back from a long-term injury and will be Southampton's No1 this season. On the continent, Troy Parrott continues to impress at AZ Alkmaar having scored six goals in his last three games including a brace in their Eredivisie opener win over Groningen last weekend. And Evan Ferguson will be looking to relaunch his career in Serie A after signing for AS Roma on loan. HIGH LEVEL Collins added: "I think it's great that a lot of players are playing at the higher level but it's football. Everything can change. "We could have more next season or we could have less. That's what happens. "Football chops and changes so quick and we can move around so quickly. "The fact that we do have a lot now with a lot of players playing regularly and that's the main thing before we go into this campaign is always a positive. "It's nothing to worry about for the next few years." Heimir Hallgrimsson has been positive about Ireland's chances of getting to the 2026 World Cup. The Boys in Green have not been to the tournament since 2002, while they have not been to a major competition since Euro 2016. Collins shares that positivity and believes he and his gaffer are not being bullish in saying so. He said: "I wouldn't say bullish. I'd say that we all have a similar feeling that it is a good opportunity to get to a World Cup. "It's different for Heimir because his whole job is focused on Ireland. We have the Premier League or Championship to worry about. "When it comes to the round, we're all in a positive place and we're all excited. We all think we've given ourselves an opportunity."
