"Winning in Ireland is perfectly possible,even if we will probably suffer for 90 minutes.But I am confident we can do it.On the other hand it would not be such a great achievement to win there.As I said we will suffer,but we'll do it"

Must have learned that arrogance from Mourinho :rolleyes:

Definitely. The more these guys come out with quotes like that the better it is for us. We're always better against the big teams especially when they are telling anyone that will listen how they are going to beat us. I remember a couple of days before the Holland match looking at the Dutch players training out in Bray (I think) on RTE News. They were loving the attention they were getting from all the Irish people that had turned up to see them training. Their cockiness went against them on the day. Hopefully the French will suffer the same fate.
