great character again from the players but the football is **** awful again. Ireland wont qualify if play like that and if they do it will be another dreadful event like 2012

 

this group will go right to the wire though I really expect Germany to get a few gears in next few games

was this any different than Italy in 2009 away. similar outcome

 

we played some great games under Trap, Italy twice, France obviously and a game in Slovakia we dominated at times and if Keane scored a penalty we would have easily beat them

 

as for KEane I thought he looked dangerous around the box but useless if doesnt get service, still has a role but not as a starter

There's definitely a sentimental feeling with some of the players...O'Shea, Keane, Given have all been starters since 2002 and are all still starters.

 

You get the feeling if Dunne hadn't retired he'd still be starting games.

 

I thought O'Neill was a poor choice to replace Trap as he's another who favours the old guard.
