Burnley boss Steve Cotterill admits he is proud of the achievements of his North Ireland trio Kyle Lafferty, Michael Duff and Steve Jones.
"I was proud to see Kyle and Michael out there," said Cotterill.
"It was disappointing to see Jonah sat on the bench all the time.
"As his manager, you would like to see him get on and have a runaround.
"I'm proud of all of them - proud of who they are, who they are playing and proud of the futures they might have."
Lafferty's reputation is rocketing and Cotterill insists Burnley's youth team coach Terry Pashley deserves recognition for his role in the teenager's development.
He added: "Kyle is the new kid on the block. The Northern Ireland media want a big centre-forward, someone to hang their hat on.
"I read through the papers and it said Lafferty was a product of Northern Ireland U21's.
"I'm not sure about that. I thought he was a product of Terry Pashley down at Gawthorpe.
"The one who missed out on the credit was Terry. In the last couple of years, when it's been lashing down with rain, he's been coaching him down there.
"I'd give Terry Pashley a pat on the back for helping Kyle Lafferty."
