"Former Dublin manager would solve problems for Micheál Martin, but MEP is also being mentioned as an Áras contender"
"Jim McGuinness is the only manager to have beaten Jim Gavin in the All-Ireland football championship."
"Donegal caught out the Dubs, the winners in Gavin's first season in 2013, in the All-Ireland semi-final in 2014, before losing to Kerry in the final."
"McGuinness, the arch disruptor, claimed a scalp but the defeat created a monster."
Jim McGuinness stands out as the only manager to have beaten Jim Gavin in the All-Ireland football championship. Donegal defeated Dublin in the 2014 All-Ireland semi-final, following Dublin's All-Ireland win in Gavin's first season in 2013. Donegal subsequently lost to Kerry in the 2014 final. McGuinness earned a reputation as an arch disruptor after claiming that scalp, and the semi-final defeat intensified Dublin's response in later seasons. McGuinness is being mentioned as a potential Áras contender and as someone who might address problems facing Micheál Martin.
