Stephen O'Donnell - Shamrock Rovers
About Stephen O'Donnell
Stephen began his career at Arsenal in 2004 and also had a spell in Scotland with Falkirk during which he made 41 league appearances between 2005 and 2007.
He returning to Ireland in the summer of 2007 to sign for Sean Connor at Bohemians. Pat Fenlon took over as manager at Bohs at the start of 2008 and Chris was a member of the side that won the league and cup double that year. However, having made 38 league appearances for 'the Gypsies' he left the club to sign for Cork City in February 2009.
Stephen made 20 league appearances for Cork that year but it was time of huge turmoil at the club and he left at the end of the year, signing for his home town club Galway United at the start of 2010. He made 28 league appearances at Galway, scoring eight times before moving on again in the close season to sign for Michael O'Neill at Shamrock Rovers who had just won the 2010 league title.
2011 was a year of ups and downs for Stephen. Injury disrupted his season and he made only 12 league appearances as the Hoops won their second consecutive league title. But the club also broke new ground in Europe and it was Stephen's extra-time penalty against Partizan Belgrade that put the club through to the Europa League Group stages.
