I wish we were able to give the fans and everyone at the club the day we all so desperately wanted. I am still enormously proud of what we achieved as a group, players and all staff.”
Irvine, along with team-mate Martin Boyle, has been called into the Socceroos’ squad for four World Cup qualifiers next month.
