McGeady seems to have the better of the full back and Reid is spreading the ball excellently
was gonna lambast McGeady before that cross for Doyles goal... sublime... goal on 11mins eh? my prediction earlier in this thread is looking good...
to be fair, we look good, very organised and relaxed. im impressed so far.
the iraqgoals link works pretty well by the way...

Georgia look a bit rubbish to be honest (touch wood). Anything less than all 3 points here would be a big disappointment.

1-0 HT.
Great first 30 minutes. Fell away a bit in the final 15.
More of the first 30 and we'll win handily. A repeat of the final 15 and it'll be a nervy second half.

Should we make any changes at the half? McGeady maybe? Losing the ball too easily.

Sitting back too much. We need another goal or this could be a disaster.

I won a few quid on Doyle anyway. He's playing well if only the ref would stop calling nothing fouls against him.
Glenn Whelan has been excellent. S.Reid his usual commanding self. McGeady playing like he has been for Celtic this season. Just can't seem to beat a player. I wish he'd come inside more as he's way too predictable.

McGeady or Hunt both losing possesion too much
apart from the cross McGeady has been shocking bad. I think Hunt has been more effective than McGeady and i would like to see Murphy or Reid on for McGeady.
The last 15-20 was a bit ropey and i think the break came at the right time...

I don't think Hunt has done anything at all, just his usuall running around like a mad yoke thing, don't think he ever offers much to the side, that said McGeady is no great player either

Free header O'Shea puts it well over.

O'Shea should have buried that!

McGeady put in the cross for the goal!!
They swapped wings after a half hour and we looked crap after that. they were both having to come infield to often after that and losing the ball as a result.
Glad to see McGeady back on the right and Hunt back to the left

McGeady looking better on the right again.
Keane hits the post and McGeady puts the follow up just wide. Bugger.

did the commentator just say "the former Inter Milan Striker" when referring to Keane... Fair enough, its factually correct, but he didnt exactly play much for them lol

Agree, thats why I'm defeneding why McGeady should stay on instead of Hunt
They are looking better now they've switched back too

Nothing more either could have done with that. Keano did well to hit the post and McGeady was being closed down and tried to curl it round his man

I would keep them both on. we look very good with them both in their natural positions. Gordan Strachan take note
Anything less than 3 points would be robbery here

Good to see McGeady and doyle tracking back well at stages in there.
We could easily get one on the break here. They are pushing numbers forward

McGeady was fouled there just outside the box. Not given.
Lucky there we were.

Two up, bring Reid on and maybe grab a third. Why Miller?

Not that i'm critisising Don Trap, but why would he change this??
And if Liam Miller is the answer, what on earth is the question?
