Appearance data for May 2015: http://irish-abroad.appspot.com/MonthlyStats?month=5
Defender Daniel Devine and midfielder Wes Hoolahan started four wins each, two more than any other player
Hoolahan was substituted in all four of these games which equals Jonathan Walters' record of four substitutions in the final month of the season
Conversely, midfielder Aaron Doran was introduced from the bench more than any other player, the tricky winger came off the bench three times for Inverness Caledonian Thistle
Sean St Ledger continued his American adventure with three draws in May, one more than fellow defender John O'Shea
St Ledger and Devine, along with Aston Villa's Jack Grealish also started more games in May, all three lined out for their respective sides five times, with St Ledger and Devine completing 90 minutes in all five
Everton duo Seamus Coleman and James McCarthy join Hull City trio Paul McShane, Stephen Quinn and Robbie Brady, as well as Richard Dunne, Jonathan Hayes and Grealish in starting three losses in May
Coleman also managed to accumulate three yellow cards in the four games he started
Joey O'Brien managed the rare feat for an outfield player of being an unused substitute more than any other player in May - remaining on the bench for four games in May, just ahead of goalkeeper Jack Bonham who was unused in three games
Daryl Murphy and Shane Long's two strikes were enough to top the scoring charts for Irish players in May, with Murphy scoring one of only two penalties in the month, along with Hoolahan
Murphy's brace came in a single game, which Ipswich still lost 3-2 to Blackburn, while Long's two goals were part of an emphatic win 6-1 for Southampton over Aston Villa
