O'Connor backed for Irish recall

The 21-year-old has been in outstanding form for the Iron since joining from Crewe in the summer and produced arguably his best performance of the season in Tuesday's 3-1 win over Preston.Adkins believes Belfast-born O'Connor, who has been out of the Northern Ireland squad of late, can soon regain his spot and add to his six international caps."I think he'll be pushing for an international place soon," he said. "He's played on the right of our midfield and he compliments our other midfielders."He has worked very well and he did well to help us nullify a very good Preston side, that's the big thing."
