Reid to lose out as Trap closes door
13 April 2012
Andy Reid looks set to miss out for the Republic of Ireland against Cyprus tomorrow but boss Giovanni Trapattoni denies he has a problem with the Sunderland man.
Steven Reid is injured and Trapattoni hinted the Blackburn midfielder's place will go to either club-mate Keith Andrews or Manchester United's Darron Gibson.
There were rumours of a bust-up between Reid and the boss last month but the Italian denied there was a rift with the former Tottenham and Charlton midfielder.
He said: "I don't have any problems with anybody. I choose thinking about the interests of the team."
