No, Ireland are half-assing it. McGeady is beasting the full back, should see another goal from that sooner or later.Quote:

Cheers lads.
ireland have no urgency about them.even against england they were plodding along.they get a free and they walk over to get the ball.
hoolohan is the only one looking for the ball and taking things quickly. we need 2 out and out wingers and exploit their full backs and their pace.coleman has been poor to be honest.wilson has been ok.whelan trying to get involved but he is crap
. keane looking sharp but missed a sitter and has just done se annoying things as usual.walters amd cox very average. Mcgeady on the ball a lot and looking for the ball alot. But not great end product, better than usual tho.
Deserved more for that first 30 mins. Tempo dropped in last 15 I think. I'll be a lot happier when we get a second.
It dropped a good bit before that I'd say.
it dropped after about 15 mins
McGeady is having this full back for dinner.
edit: and right as I say it he loses the ball to him
we are awful and we desperately need a 2nd
i think we need anther winger badly.like mcclean.
Keane with a second. Still awful stuff.
Both our goals have come from one-touch moves. Yet we persist with this slow, turgid style.
hoolohan again was instrumental in that.
Dam I had Coleman down to get the next goal!!!
Yes Hoolahan made that one for me. Opened them right up.
C'mon Ireland!! If we can beat these lads, we can beat anyone!!
I blame the manager :)Quote:

50p, am I right?Quote:

Sammon coming on, presumably for Walters who hasn't played well. Linked up well with Keane on Sunday.

mcgeady off and cox stays on
.
what?
Why is McGeady coming off? He's been one of our only proper outlets and he won't even be going to America.
Sweden threatening... Great save by Almer from Ibrahimovic and separately from Larsson.
Wouldn't mind having 2 wingers on at the same time during this campaign to see how that works.
Really thought that 2nd goal would change things a bit
he wasnt happy.trappatoni is still at it.
the mind boggles.
jaysus, these lads are already on holiday
Beautiful touch and assist from Sammon.
Sammon. Lionel Messi, I'm tellin' ya.
sammom did well.
Great pass from Sammon. I take the noes back.Quote:

Yep, really really well done Sammon.
Not sure if was Messi. It was more Zidane really...
2-1 elmander.
I see the trademark Swedish late comeback is on.Quote:
