James McClean celebrates his birthday in classic James McClean fashion

CLASSIC JIMMER...

Yesterday was James McClean's 32nd birthday, and we celebrated by compiling some of his best moments in an Ireland jersey.

He has had some iconic moments for club and country, so it was difficult to narrow it down to just five, but we think we went with the best of them.

The Stoke City player celebrated his own birthday by posting a picture on his Instagram page that could not be more on brand for him.

He shared a picture of himself stood proudly in an Ireland jersey, accompanied by the caption: "Like the counties in my country. 32."

You love to see it.

McClean has been vocal in his support for a United Ireland in the past, having once written: "Captaining my country was among the proudest moments of my life because I am an Irishman to the core.

"But despite being able to do these things, I have always been conscious of the fact that some rights are still denied to me because I happen to have been born in the North.

"I can captain my country, but I still can't vote for my country's President."

He has also posted a number of #UnitedIreland tweets, before he deleted his account.
