He has scored more league goals this season (23) than Wayne Rooney and Robin van Persie combined (21) but Daryl Murphy probably won't start for the Boys in Green against Poland this Sunday night.
The Republic of Ireland take on the in-form Group D leaders at the Aviva Stadium in the fifth round of Euro 2016 qualifiers.
