Kevin Deery

Kevin broke into the team at right back under Kevin Mahon, but is now more commonly found on the right wing or in the midfield.

A fierce tackler, Deery is confident on the ball and can strike a ball.

He experienced a nightmare 2005 season, when he tore ligaments in pre-season and then broke down within 10 minutes on his return against UCD.

However 2006 was a stark contrast and a tremendous season was capped when Deery picked up the PFAI Young Player of the Year Award and the Goal of the Season award.

Deery has only scored 13 goals for City but most memorably where his two wonderful goals away to Gretna during the 2006 UEFA Cup campaign.

Kevin was a regular in the Republic of Ireland U-21 setup, and also featured on uefa.com as a player to watch in 2007 as well as being called into the Republic B Team.
