Aston Villa goalkeeper Shay Given insists he's returned to the Republic of Ireland fold with no playing guarantees.
Given had previously hinted that he was ready to reconsider his decision to retire from international football following the Euro 2012 finals, but dismissed suggestions he had only returned after being assured he would be in the team.
He said: "There are no guarantees. There are no demands from me. I read somewhere that I demanded to play - that's all rubbish.
"I am here to try help the group and try to get us qualified. We have some very tough games coming up. Hopefully I can do that."
